Novel Methods For Detection And Analysis Of Atypical Aspects In Speech

Julian David Fritsch

Atypical aspects in speech concern speech that deviates from what is commonly considered normal or healthy. In this thesis, we propose novel methods for detection and analysis of these aspects, e.g. to monitor the temporary state of a speaker, diseases tha ...

Automatic pathological speech assessment

Parvaneh Janbakhshi

Many pathologies cause impairments in the speech production mechanism resulting in reduced speech intelligibility and communicative ability. To assist the clinical diagnosis, treatment and management of speech disorders, automatic pathological speech asses ...

Novel Methods for Incorporating Prior Knowledge for Automatic Speech Assessment

Subrahmanya Pavankumar Dubagunta

Speech signal conveys several kinds of information such as a message, speaker identity, emotional state of the speaker and social state of the speaker. Automatic speech assessment is a broad area that refers to using automatic methods to predict human judg ...

Multilingual Training and Adaptation in Speech Recognition

Sibo Tong

State-of-the-art acoustic models for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) are based on Hidden Markov Models (HMM) and Deep Neural Networks (DNN) and often require thousands of hours of transcribed speech data during training. Therefore, building multilingual ...

End-to-End Acoustic Modeling using Convolutional Neural Networks for HMM-based Automatic Speech Recognition

Ronan Collobert, Dimitri Palaz

In hidden Markov model (HMM) based automatic speech recognition (ASR) system, modeling the statistical relationship between the acoustic speech signal and the HMM states that represent linguistically motivated subword units such as phonemes is a crucial st ...

Language Independent Query by Example Spoken Term Detection

Dhananjay Ram

Language independent query-by-example spoken term detection (QbE-STD) is the problem of retrieving audio documents from an archive, which contain a spoken query provided by a user. This is usually casted as a hypothesis testing and pattern matching problem ...

Sparse and Low-rank Modeling for Automatic Speech Recognition

Pranay Dighe

This thesis deals with exploiting the low-dimensional multi-subspace structure of speech towards the goal of improving acoustic modeling for automatic speech recognition (ASR). Leveraging the parsimonious hierarchical nature of speech, we hypothesize that ...

Phonetic aware techniques for Speaker Verification

Subhadeep Dey

The goal of this thesis is to improve current state-of-the-art techniques in speaker verification (SV), typically based on âidentity-vectorsâ (i-vectors) and deep neural network (DNN), by exploiting diverse (phonetic) information extracted using variou ...

Perceptual Information Loss due to Impaired Speech Production

Hervé Bourlard, Milos Cernak, Afsaneh Asaei

Phonological classes define articulatory-free and articulatory-bound phone attributes. Deep neural network is used to estimate the probability of phonological classes from the speech signal. In theory, a unique combination of phone attributes form a phonem ...

EXPLOITING SEQUENCE INFORMATION FOR TEXT-DEPENDENT SPEAKER VERIFICATION

Petr Motlicek, Subhadeep Dey

Model-based approaches to Speaker Verification (SV), such as Joint Factor Analysis (JFA), i-vector and relevance Maximum-a-Posteriori (MAP), have shown to provide state-of-the-art performance for text-dependent systems with fixed phrases. The performance o ...
