Learning Label Embeddings for Nearest-Neighbor Multi-class Classification with an Application to Speech Recognition

We consider the problem of using nearest neighbor methods to provide a conditional probability estimate, P(y|a), when the number of labels y is large and the labels share some underlying structure. We propose a method for learning label embeddings (similar to error-correcting output codes (ECOCs)) t...
