Novel Methods For Detection And Analysis Of Atypical Aspects In Speech

Julian David Fritsch

Atypical aspects in speech concern speech that deviates from what is commonly considered normal or healthy. In this thesis, we propose novel methods for detection and analysis of these aspects, e.g. to monitor the temporary state of a speaker, diseases tha ...

Selective Retrieval of Individual Cells from Microfluidic Arrays Combining Dielectrophoretic Force and Directed Hydrodynamic Flow

Gabriele Gambardella, Bart Deplancke, Carlotta Guiducci, Jörn Pezoldt, Kevin Keim, Pierre-Emmanuel Marie Thiriet

Hydrodynamic-based microfluidic platforms enable single-cell arraying and analysis over time. Despite the advantages of established microfluidic systems, long-term analysis and proliferation of cells selected in such devices require off-chip recovery of ce ...

Phonetic aware techniques for Speaker Verification

Subhadeep Dey

The goal of this thesis is to improve current state-of-the-art techniques in speaker verification (SV), typically based on â identity-vectorsâ (i-vectors) and deep neural network (DNN), by exploiting diverse (phonetic) information extracted using variou ...

Perceptual Information Loss due to Impaired Speech Production

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei

Phonological classes define articulatory-free and articulatory-bound phone attributes. Deep neural network is used to estimate the probability of phonological classes from the speech signal. In theory, a unique combination of phone attributes form a phonem ...

Acoustic data-driven grapheme-to-phoneme conversion in the probabilistic lexical modeling framework

Mathew Magimai Doss, Marzieh Razavi, Ramya Rasipuram

One of the primary steps in building automatic speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech systems is the development of a phonemic lexicon that provides a mapping between each word and its pronunciation as a sequence of phonemes. Phoneme lexicons can be d ...

On Structured Sparsity of Phonological Posteriors for Linguistic Parsing

Hervé Bourlard, Afsaneh Asaei

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 ...

Articulatory feature based continuous speech recognition using probabilistic lexical modeling

Mathew Magimai Doss, Ramya Rasipuram

Phonological studies suggest that the typical subword units such as phones or phonemes used in automatic speech recognition systems can be decomposed into a set of features based on the articulators used to produce the sound. Most of the current approaches ...

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

Hervé Bourlard, 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 ...

Incremental Syllable-Context Phonetic Vocoding

Petr Motlicek, Philip Neil Garner

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 Learning Grapheme-to-Phoneme Relationships through the Acoustic Speech Signal

Mathew Magimai Doss, Ramya Rasipuram

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems, through use of the phoneme as an intermediary unit representation, split the problem of modeling the relationship between the written form, i.e., the text and the acoustic speech signal into two disjoint processe ...

Overlapping speech detection using long-term conversational features for speaker diarization in meeting room conversations

Hervé Bourlard, Sree Harsha Yella

Overlapping speech has been identified as one of the main sources of errors in diarization of meeting room conversations. Therefore, overlap detection has become an important step prior to speaker diarization. Studies on conversational analysis have shown ...

Joint Source-Filter Optimization for Accurate Vocal Tract Estimation Using Differential Evolution

Jean-Marc Vesin, Olaf Schleusing

In this work, we present a joint source-filter optimization approach for separating voiced speech into vocal tract (VT) and voice source components. The presented method is pitch-synchronous and thereby exhibits a high robustness against vocal jitter, shim ...
