On Breathing Pattern Information in Synthetic Speech

Mathew Magimai Doss, Zohreh Mostaani

The respiratory system is an integral part of human speech production. As a consequence, there is a close relation between respiration and speech signal, and the produced speech signal carries breathing pattern related information. Speech can also be gener ...

Deep learning architectures for estimating breathing signal and respiratory parameters from speech recordings

Mathew Magimai Doss, Zohreh Mostaani

Respiration is an essential and primary mechanism for speech production. We first inhale and then produce speech while exhaling. When we run out of breath, we stop speaking and inhale. Though this process is involuntary, speech production involves a system ...

Many Are The Ways to Learn: Identifying multi-modal behavioral profiles of collaborative learning in constructivist activities

Pierre Dillenbourg, Barbara Bruno, Jauwairia Nasir, Aditi Kothiyal

Understanding how learners engage with learning technologies, and its relation with their learning, is crucial to the design of effective learning interventions. Assessing the learners’ state however, is non-trivial. Research suggests that performance is n ...

Novel Methods for Incorporating Prior Knowledge for Automatic Speech Assessment

Subrahmanya Pavankumar Dubagunta

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 ...

On The Relationship Between Speech-Based Breathing Signal Prediction Evaluation Measures And Breathing Parameters Estimation

Mathew Magimai Doss, Zohreh Mostaani

The respiratory system is one of the major components of the speech production system. Any alteration in breathing can result in changes in speech. Specific breathing characteristics, such as breathing rate and tidal volume, can indicate a person's patholo ...

Word-level Embeddings for Cross-Task Transfer Learning in Speech Processing

Pierre Anton Beckmann

Recent breakthroughs in deep learning often rely on representation learning and knowledge transfer. In recent years, unsupervised and self-supervised techniques for learning speech representation were developed to foster automatic speech recognition. Up to ...

Estimating The Degree of Sleepiness by Integrating Articulatory Feature Knowledge In Raw Waveform Based CNNs

Julian David Fritsch, Subrahmanya Pavankumar Dubagunta

Speech-based degree of sleepiness estimation is an emerging research problem. This paper investigates an end-to-end approach, where given raw waveform as input, a convolutional neural network (CNN) estimates at its output the degree of sleepiness. Within t ...

Multilingual and Unsupervised Subword Modeling for Zero-Resource Languages

Enno Hermann

Subword modeling for zero-resource languages aims to learn low-level representations of speech audio without using transcriptions or other resources from the target language (such as text corpora or pronunciation dictionaries). A good representation should ...

White matter hyperintensities at critical crossroads for executive function and verbal abilities in small vessel disease

Nathalie Heidi Meyer

The presence of white matter lesions in patients with cerebral small vessel disease (SVD) is among the main causes of cognitive decline. We investigated the relation between white matter hyperintensity (WMH) locations and executive and language abilities i ...

Automatic Pathological Speech Intelligibility Assessment Exploiting Subspace-Based Analyses

Hervé Bourlard, Ina Kodrasi, Parvaneh Janbakhshi

Competitive state-of-the-art automatic pathological speech intelligibility measures typically rely on regression training on a large number of features, require a large amount of healthy speech training data, or are applicable only to phonetically balanced ...

End-to-End Acoustic Modeling using Convolutional Neural Networks for HMM-based Automatic Speech Recognition

Mathew Magimai Doss, Dimitri Palaz

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 ...

Visual speech recognition : from traditional to deep learning frameworks

Marina Zimmermann

Speech is the most natural means of communication for humans. Therefore, since the beginning of computers it has been a goal to interact with machines via speech. While there have been gradual improvements in this field over the decades, and with recent dr ...

Intonation modelling using a muscle model and perceptually weighted matching pursuit

Philip Neil Garner, Pierre-Edouard Jean Charles Honnet

We propose a physiologically based intonation model using perceptual relevance. Motivated by speech synthesis from a speech-to-speech translation (S2ST) point of view, we aim at a language independent way of modelling intonation. The model presented in thi ...

Understanding and Decoding Imagined Speech using Electrocorticographic Recordings in Humans

Stéphanie Martin

Certain brain disorders, resulting from brainstem infarcts, traumatic brain injury, stroke and amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, limit verbal communication despite the patient being fully aware. People that cannot communicate due to neurological disorders wou ...

Template-matching for text-dependent speaker verification

Petr Motlicek, Subhadeep Dey

In the last decade, i-vector and Joint Factor Analysis (JFA) approaches to speaker modeling have become ubiquitous in the area of automatic speaker recognition. Both of these techniques involve the computation of posterior probabilities, using either Gauss ...

Intonation Modelling for Speech Synthesis and Emphasis Preservation

Pierre-Edouard Jean Charles Honnet

Speech-to-speech translation is a framework which recognises speech in an input language, translates it to a target language and synthesises speech in this target language. In such a system, variations in the speech signal which are inherent to natural hum ...
