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 info ...

Design of a Speech Corpus for Research on Cross-Lingual Prosody Transfer

Philip Neil Garner

Since the prosody of a spoken utterance carries information about its discourse function, salience, and speaker attitude, prosody mod- els and prosody generation modules have played a crucial part in text-to- speech (TTS) synthesis systems from the beginni ...

PAoS Markers: Trajectory Analysis of Selective Phonological Posteriors for Assessment of Progressive Apraxia of Speech

Milos Cernak, Afsaneh Asaei

Progressive apraxia of Speech (PAoS) is a progressive motor speech disorder associated with neurodegenerative disease causing impairment of phonetic encoding and motor speech planning. Clinical observation and acoustic studies show that duration analysis p ...

Prosody is a phenomenon that is crucial for numerous fields of speech research, accenting the importance of having a robust prosody model. A class of intonation models based on the physiology of pitch pro- duction are especially attractive for their inhere ...

Current very low bit rate speech coders are, due to complexity limitations, designed to work off-line. This paper investigates incremental speech coding that operates real-time and incrementally (i.e., encoded speech depends only on already-uttered speech ...

On Compressibility of Neural Network phonological Features for Low Bit Rate Speech Coding

Hervé Bourlard, Milos Cernak, Afsaneh Asaei

Phonological features extracted by neural network have shown interesting potential for low bit rate speech vocoding. The span of phonological features is wider than the span of phonetic features, and thus fewer frames need to be transmitted. Moreover, the ...

Overview of the IFMIF test facility design in IFMIF/EVEDA phase

The test facility (TF) is one of the three major facilities of the International Fusion Material Irradiation Facility (IFMIF). Engineering designs of TF main systems and key components have been initiated and developed in the IFMIF EVEDA (Engineering Valid ...

Sparse Gammatone Signal Model Predicts Perceived Noise Intrusiveness

Hervé Bourlard, Raphaël Marc Ullmann

Is it possible to predict the intrusiveness of background noise in speech signals as perceived by humans? Such a question is important to the automatic evaluation of speech enhancement systems, including those designed for new wideband speech telephony, an ...
