On Learning Vocal Tract System Related Speaker Discriminative Information from Raw Signal Using CNNs

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 ...

Unified Prosody Model based on Atom Decomposition for Emphasis Detection

Philip Neil Garner, Pierre-Edouard Jean Charles Honnet

The prosody of the speech signal carries both linguistic and paralinguistic information. As such, there is a necessity of its modelling for the purpose of integrating it in speech technology systems. So far, there has been a multitude of proposed models fo ...

On Structured Sparsity of Phonological Posteriors for Linguistic Parsing

Hervé Bourlard, Milos Cernak, Afsaneh Asaei

The speech signal conveys information on different time scales from short (20–40 ms) time scale or segmental, associated to phonological and phonetic information to long (150–250 ms) time scale or supra segmental, associated to syllabic and prosodic inform ...

The use of intracranial recordings to decode human language: Challenges and opportunities

José del Rocio Millán Ruiz, Stéphanie Martin

Decoding speech from intracranial recordings serves two main purposes: understanding the neural correlates of speech processing and decoding speech features for targeting speech neuroprosthetic devices. Intracranial recordings have high spatial and tempora ...

Syllabic Pitch Tuning for Neutral-to-Emotional Voice Conversion

Milos Cernak, Lakshmi Babu Saheer

Prosody plays an important role in both identification and synthesis of emotionalized speech. Prosodic features like pitch are usually estimated and altered at a segmental level based on short windows of speech (where the signal is expected to be quasi-sta ...

Upregulation of the Rostral Anterior Cingulate Cortex can Alter the Perception of Emotions: fMRI-Based Neurofeedback at 3 and 7 T

Yury Koush

Recent advances in real-time functional magnetic resonance imaging (rt-fMRI) techniques enable online feedback about momentary brain activity from a localized region of interest. The anterior cingulate cortex (ACC) as a central hub for cognitive and emotio ...

Automatic Accentedness Evaluation of Non-Native Speech Using Phonetic and Sub-Phonetic Posterior Probabilities

Milos Cernak, Ramya Rasipuram

Automatic evaluation of non-native speech accentedness has potential implications for not only language learning and accent identification systems but also for speaker and speech recognition systems. From the perspective of speech production, the two prima ...
