Wide-Band Audio Coding based on Frequency Domain Linear Prediction

Petr Motlicek, Hynek Hermansky, Sriram Ganapathy

We revisit an original concept of speech coding in which the signal is separated into the carrier modulated by the signal envelope. A recently developed technique, called frequency-domain linear prediction (FDLP), is applied for the efficient estimation of ...

Bertraffic: Bert-Based Joint Speaker Role And Speaker Change Detection For Air Traffic Control Communications

Petr Motlicek, Juan Pablo Zuluaga Gomez

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) allows transcribing the communications between air traffic controllers (ATCOs) and aircraft pilots. The transcriptions are used later to extract ATC named entities, e.g., aircraft callsigns. One common challenge is speech ...

Contextual Semi-Supervised Learning: An Approach To Leverage Air-Surveillance and Untranscribed ATC Data in ASR Systems

Petr Motlicek, Juan Pablo Zuluaga Gomez

Air traffic management and specifically air-traffic control (ATC) rely mostly on voice communications between Air Traffic Controllers (ATCos) and pilots. In most cases, these voice communications follow a well-defined grammar that could be leveraged in Aut ...
