Speaker adaptation and the evaluation of speaker similarity in the EMIME speech-to-speech translation project [PDF]

, 2010
This paper provides an overview of speaker adaptation research carried out in the EMIME speech-to-speech translation (S2ST) project. We focus on how speaker adaptation transforms can be learned from speech in one language and applied to the acoustic ...

European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline and EXPeRT Recommendations for the Diagnosis and Management of Gastroenteropancreatic Neuroendocrine Neoplasms in Children and Adolescents

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Pediatric gastroenteropancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (GEP‐NENs) are extremely rare and clinically heterogeneous. Management has largely been extrapolated from adult practice. This European Standard Clinical Practice Guideline (ESCP), developed by the EXPeRT network in collaboration with adult NEN experts, provides (adult) evidence ...

End-to-End Optimization of Source Models for Speech and Audio Coding Using a Machine Learning Framework

, 2019
Speech coding is the most commonly used application of speech processing. Accumulated layers of improvements have however made codecs so complex that optimization of individual modules becomes increasingly difficult. This work introduces machine learning

Health‐Related Quality of Life and Symptom Severity Among Patients With PIK3CA‐Related Overgrowth Spectrum: A Mixed‐Methods Study to Understand Real‐World Experience With Alpelisib Treatment

Pediatric Blood &Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background PIK3CA‐related overgrowth spectrum (PROS) includes several rare overgrowth disorders resulting from somatic gain‐of‐function mutations in PIK3CA. Despite treatment advances, including the recent approval of alpelisib for PROS in the United States, literature detailing the patient experience with PROS is limited.

Speech representation and speech understanding [PDF]

Proceedings of the workshop on Speech and Natural Language - HLT '90, 1990
The core objective of the research is to encode speech into segments which retain necessary information for accurate continuous speech recognition, but are more efficient to deal with than the usual encoding of short frames of speech. We use a multi-stage decision-tree encoder with linear combinations of features at the decision nodes; the result is ...

Super-Wideband Spectral Envelope Modeling for Speech Coding

, 2019
Significant improvements in the quality of speech coders have been achieved by widening the coded frequency range from narrowband to wideband. However, existing speech coders still employ a limited band source-filter model extended by parametric coding ...
