Composition of Deep and Spiking Neural Networks for Very Low Bit Rate Speech Coding

Afsaneh Asaei, Philip Neil Garner, Milos Cernak

2016

On Structured Sparsity of Phonological Posteriors for Linguistic Parsing

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Milos Cernak

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 ...

Subspace Detection of DNN Posterior Probabilities via Sparse Representation for Query by Example Spoken Term Detection

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Dhananjay Ram

We cast the query by example spoken term detection (QbE-STD) problem as subspace detection where query and background subspaces are modeled as union of low-dimensional subspaces. The speech exemplars used for subspace modeling are class-conditional posteri ...

Sparse Modeling of Neural Network Posterior Probabilities for Exemplar-based Speech Recognition

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Pranay Dighe

In this paper, a compressive sensing (CS) perspective to exemplar-based speech processing is proposed. Relying on an analytical relationship between CS formulation and statistical speech recognition (Hidden Markov Models HMM), the automatic speech recognit ...

Binary Sparse Coding of Convolutive Mixtures for Sound Localization and Separation via Spatialization

Hervé Bourlard, Volkan Cevher, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Saeid Haghighatshoar

We propose a sparse coding approach to address the problem of source-sensor localization and speech reconstruction. This approach relies on designing a dictionary of spatialized signals by projecting the microphone array recordings into the array manifolds ...

Ad Hoc Microphone Array Calibration: Euclidean Distance Matrix Completion Algorithm and Theoretical Guarantees

Hervé Bourlard, Philip Neil Garner, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Reza Parhizkar

This paper addresses the problem of ad hoc microphone array calibration where only partial information about the distances between the microphones is available. We construct a matrix consisting of the pairwise distances and propose to estimate the missing ...

On Application Of Non-Negative Matrix Factorization for Ad Hoc Microphone Array Calibration from Incomplete Noisy Distances

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

We propose to use non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) to estimate the unknown pairwise distances and reconstruct a distance matrix for microphone array position calibration. We develop new multiplicative update rules for NMF with incomplete input matri ...

Robust Microphone Placement for Source Localization from Noisy Distance Measurements

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Philip Neil Garner, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh, Saeid Haghighatshoar

We propose a novel algorithm to design an optimum array geometry for source localization inside an enclosure. We assume a square-law decay propagation model for the sound acquisition so that the additive noise on the measured source-microphone distances is ...

Novel GCC-PHAT Model in Diffuse Sound Field for Microphone Array Pairwise Distance Based Calibration

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Mohammadjavad Taghizadeh

We propose a novel formulation of the generalized cross correlation with phase transform (GCC-PHAT) for a pair of microphones in diffuse sound field. This formulation elucidates the links between the microphone distances and the GCC-PHAT output. Hence, it ...

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

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei, Milos Cernak

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 ...
