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 ...
The performance of speaker recognition systems has considerably improved in the last decade. This is mainly due to the development of Gaussian mixture model-based systems and in particular to the use of i-vectors. These systems handle relatively well noise ...
In the literature, the task of dysarthric speech intelligibility assessment has been approached through development of different low-level feature representations, subspace modeling, phone confidence estimation or measurement of automatic speech recognitio ...
Vocal tract length normalisation (VTLN) is well established as a speaker adaptation technique that can work with very little adaptation data. It is also well known that VTLN can be cast as a linear transform in the cepstral domain. Building on this latter ...
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 ...
Modeling directly raw waveforms through neural networks for speech processing is gaining more and more attention. Despite its varied success, a question that remains is: what kind of information are such neural networks capturing or learning for different ...
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 ...
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 ...
Feature extraction is a key step in many machine learning and signal processing applications. For speech signals in particular, it is important to derive features that contain both the vocal characteristics of the speaker and the content of the speech. In ...
In this paper, we introduce a novel approach for Language Identification (LID). Two commonly used state-of-the-art methods based on UBM/GMM I-vector technique, combined with a back-end classifier, are first evaluated. The differential factor between these ...
