La CTC et son intrigant label
inproceedings
Colloque International Francophone sur l’Écrit et le Document 2016 (CIFED)
,
2016
Abstract
Les systèmes de reconnaissance d’écriture vainqueurs d’évaluations internationales ces dernières années sont basés sur des réseaux de type LSTM, entraînés avec un critère de classification temporelle connexionniste (CTC). L’algorithme de la CTC est basé sur une procédure "forward-backward", sans segmentation de la séquence d’entrée avant l’entraînement. Les sorties du réseau sont les caractères à modéliser, auxquels on ajoute un label spécial, noncaractère, (blank). D’autre part, dans les systèmes hybrides réseaux de neurones / modèles de Markov cachés (MMCs), les réseaux sont entraînés au niveau trame à prédire des états de MMC. Dans cet article, nous montrons que la CTC est une forme dérivée de l’entraînement forward-backward de MMCs, et qu’elle peut donc être étendue à des topologies arbitraires de MMC. Nous appliquons cette méthode à des perceptrons multicouches et la comparons à l’entraînement au niveau trame dans diverses situations. Enfin, nous analysons le rôle intrigant de ce label spécial "blank".

Automatic Handwritten Character Segmentation for Paleographical Character Shape Analysis
inproceedings
Document Analysis Systems
,
2016
Abstract
Written texts are both physical (signs, shapes and graphical systems) and abstract objects (ideas), whose meanings and social connotations evolve through time. To study this dual nature of texts, palaeographers need to analyse large scale corpora at the finest granularity, such as character shape. This goal can only be reached through an automatic segmentation process. In this paper, we present a method, based on Handwritten Text Recognition, to automatically align images of digitized manuscripts with texts from scholarly editions, at the levels of page, column, line, word, and character. It has been successfully applied to two datasets of medieval manuscripts, which are now almost fully segmented at character level. The quality of the word and character segmentations are evaluated and further palaeographical analysis are presented.

Tandem HMM with convolutional neural network for handwritten word recognition
inproceedings
International Conference on Acoustics Speech and Signal Processing
,
2013
Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the association of hidden Markov models and convolutional neural networks for handwritten word recognition. The convolutional neural networks have been successfully applied to various computer vision tasks, including handwritten character recognition. In this work, we show that they can replace Gaussian mixtures to compute emission probabilities in hidden Markov models (hybrid association), or serve as feature extractor for a standard Gaussian HMM system. The proposed systems outperform a basic HMM based on either decorrelated pixels or handcrafted features. We validated the approach on two publicly available databases, and we report up to 60% (Rimes) and 35% (IAM) relative improvement compared to a Gaussian HMM based on pixel values. The final systems give comparable to recurrent neural networks, which are the best systems since 2009.

Early chloride intake does not parallel that of sodium in extremely low birth weight infants and may impair neonatal outcomes.
article
Journal of pediatric gastroenterology and nutrition
,
2011
Abstract
BACKGROUND:: Accurate data on the optimal chloride intake in premature infants are scarce. OBJECTIVE:: To describe chloride (Cl) intakes in the first 10 days (D) of life and to assess the relationships between high Cl intakes and corrected serum chloride level or markers of severe acidosis in infants less than 28 weeks gestation. METHODS:: Retrospective cohort study including all infants < 28 weeks admitted to the neonatal intensive care unit over a 3-year period and cared for from birth until D10 or more. RESULTS:: Fifty-six infants were included. Cumulative total Cl intakes reached (mean +/- SD) 9.6 +/- 3.7 mmol/kg at day 3 and 49.2 +/- 13.5 mmol/kg at D10. Inadvertent intakes (from intravenous fluids other than parenteral nutrition) represented on average 70% of total Cl intakes in the first 3 days. Difference between Cl and sodium intakes reached (mean +/- SD) 7.8 +/- 4.8 mmol/kg at D10 and mainly originated from parenteral nutrition. By multivariate analysis, cumulative Cl intake > 10 mmol/kg during the first 3 days was an independent risk factor of base excess <-10 mmol/l. Cumulative Cl intake > 45 mmol/kg during the first 10 days was an independent risk factor of corrected chloremia > 115 mmol/l and of base excess <-10 mmol/l. CONCLUSIONS:: Cumulative Cl intake over 10 mmol/kg during the first 3 days (i.e. 3.3 mmol/kg/d on average) and over 45 mmol/kg during the first 10 days (i.e. 4.5 mmol/kg/d on average) may have unwanted metabolic consequences and should be avoided. Imbalance between electrolytes provided by the parenteral nutrition solution need to be detected and corrected.

Abstract
This report presents the integration of several noise reduction methods into the front-end for speech recognition developed at IDIAP. The chosen methods are : Spectral Subtraction, Cepstral Mean Subtraction and Blind Equalization. These different methods are studied from a theoretical point of view, their implementation is described and are tested on the Numbers95 speech database. A good noise robustness is obtained by combining two of these methods, like Spectral Subtraction with Cepstral Mean Subtraction or Spectral Subtraction with Blind Equalization. The later combination is found to be more appropriate for real recognition systems since it is frame synchronous. A comparison with Jah-RASTA-PLP is also given.
