A keyword based metadata indexing and searching facility for Storage Resource Broker (SRB) is presented here. SRB is a popular data grid based storage system that provides means to store data and associate metadata information with the stored data. The met ...

Since the sixties, movies such as “2001: A Space Odyssey” have familiarized us with the idea of com-puters that can speak and hear just as a human being does. Automatic speech recogni-tion (ASR) is the technol-ogy that allows machines to interpret human sp ...
Audio segmentation, in general, is the task of segmenting a continuous audio stream in terms of acoustically homogenous regions, where the rule of homogeneity depends on the task. This thesis aims at developing and investigating efficient, robust and unsup ...
Audio-visual speech recognition promises to improve the performance of speech recognizers, especially when the audio is corrupted, by adding information from the visual modality, more specifically, from the video of the speaker. However, the number of visu ...
In this paper we investigate the possibility of improving the speech recognition performance of meeting recordings by using slides captured during the recording process. The key hypothesis exploited in this work is that both slides and speech carry correla ...
Speech-based command interfaces are becoming more and more common in cars. Applications include automatic dialog systems for hands-free phone calls as well as more advanced features such as navigation systems. However, interferences, such as speech from th ...
Widrow's interference canceller adapted by the normalized LMS (NLMS) is a standard approach for separating signals from multiple speakers, for example from the driver (target) and the codriver (interference) in a car. In practice, the adaptation must be ca ...
This paper presents overview of an online audio indexing system, which creates a searchable index of speech content embedded in digitized audio files. This system is based on our recently proposed offline audio segmentation techniques. As the data arrives ...
We address the problem of distant speech acquisition in multi-party meetings, using multiple microphones and cameras. Microphone array beamforming techniques present a potential alternative to close-talking microphones by providing speech enhancement throu ...
The use of large speech corpora in example-based approaches for speech recognition is mainly focused on increasing the number of examples. This strategy presents some difficulties because databases may not provide enough examples for some rare words. In th ...
