We describe a kernel wrapper, a Mercer kernel for the task of phoneme sequence recognition which is based on operations with the Gaussian kernel, and suitable for any sequence kernel classifier. We start by presenting a kernel-based algorithm for phoneme s ...
We investigate the detection of spoken terms in conversational speech using phoneme recognition with the objective of achieving smaller index size as well as faster search speed. Speech is processed and indexed as a sequence of one best phoneme sequence. W ...

The use of local phoneme posterior probabilities has been increasingly explored for improving speech recognition systems. Hybrid hidden Markov model / artificial neural network (HMM/ANN) and Tandem are the most successful examples of such systems. In this ...
Speech sounds can be characterized by articulatory features. Articulatory features are typically estimated using a set of multilayer perceptrons (MLPs), i.e., a separate MLP is trained for each articulatory feature. In this report, we investigate multitask ...

In this paper, we propose a simple approach to jointly model both grapheme and phoneme information using Kullback-Leibler divergence based HMM (KL-HMM) system. More specifically, graphemes are used as subword units and phoneme posterior probabilities estim ...
This chapter introduces a discriminative method for detecting and spotting keywords in spoken utterances. Given a word represented as a sequence of phonemes and a spoken utterance, the keyword spotter predicts the best time span of the phoneme sequence in ...
This paper presents two examples of how nonverbal commu- nication can be automatically detected and interpreted in terms of social phenomena. In particular, the presented approaches use simple prosodic features to distinguish between journalists and non-jo ...
In this paper we propose two alternatives to overcome the natural asynchrony of modalities in Audio-Visual Speech Recognition. We first investigate the use of asynchronous statistical models based on Dynamic Bayesian Networks with different levels of async ...
