We address the problem of automatically predicting group performance on a task, using multimodal features derived from the group conversation. These include acoustic features extracted from the speech signal, and linguistic features derived from the conver ...
Over these last few years, the use of Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), now often referred to as deep learning or Deep Neural Networks (DNNs), has significantly reshaped research and development in a variety of signal and information processing tasks. Whi ...
In a recent work, we have shown that speaker verification systems can be built where both features and classifiers are directly learned from the raw speech signal with convolutional neural networks (CNNs). In this framework, the training phase also decides ...
Deep learning relies on a very specific kind of neural networks: those superposing several neural layers. In the last few years, deep learning achieved major breakthroughs in many tasks such as image analysis, speech recognition, natural language processin ...
In the last decade, i-vector and Joint Factor Analysis (JFA) approaches to speaker modeling have become ubiquitous in the area of automatic speaker recognition. Both of these techniques involve the computation of posterior probabilities, using either Gauss ...
Learning a good speaker embedding is critical for many speech processing tasks, including recognition, verification, and diarization. To this end, we propose a complementary optimizing goal called intra-class loss to improve deep speaker embed dings learne ...
Recent years have shown an increase in both the accuracy of biometric systems and their practical use. The application of biometrics is becoming widespread with fingerprint sensors in smartphones, automatic face recognition in social networks and video-bas ...
Automatic speaker verification systems can be spoofed through recorded, synthetic or voice converted speech of target speakers. To make these systems practically viable, the detection of such attacks, referred to as presentation attacks, is of paramount in ...
We describe the design and recording of a high quality French speech corpus, aimed at building TTS systems, investigate multiple styles, and emphasis. The data was recorded by a French voice talent, and contains about ten hours of speech, including emphasi ...
State-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech systems require a pronunciation lexicon that maps each word to a sequence of phones. Manual development of lexicons is costly as it needs linguistic knowledge and human expertise. To fa ...
