Standard automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems use phonemes as subword units. Thus, one of the primary resource required to build a good ASR system is a well developed phoneme pronunciation lexicon. However, under-resourced languages typically lack su ...
Speaker verification on portable devices like smartphones is gradually becoming popular. In this context, two issues need to be considered: 1) such devices have relatively limited computation resources, and 2) they are liable to be used everywhere, possibl ...

Under-resourced speech recognizers may benefit from data in languages other than the target language. In this paper, we boost the performance of an Afrikaans speech recognizer by using already available data from other languages. To successfully exploit av ...

In this thesis, we propose a novel approach for speaker and speech recognition involving localized, binary, data-driven features. The proposed approach is largely inspired by similar localized approaches in the computer vision domain. The success of these ...
In this paper, we propose a novel parts-based binary-valued feature for ASR. This feature is extracted using boosted ensembles of simple threshold-based classifiers. Each such classifier looks at a specific pair of time-frequency bins located on the spectr ...
A novel parts-based binary-valued feature termed Boosted Binary Feature (BBF) was recently proposed for ASR. Such features look at specific pairs of time-frequency bins in the spectro-temporal plane. The most discriminative of these features are selected b ...
The work described in this thesis takes place in the context of capturing real-life audio for the analysis of spontaneous social interactions. Towards this goal, we wish to capture conversational and ambient sounds using portable audio recorders. Analysis ...
