Building competitive direct acoustics-to-word models for English conversational speech recognition
, 2017 Direct acoustics-to-word (A2W) models in the end-to-end paradigm have received increasing attention compared to conventional sub-word based automatic speech recognition models using phones, characters, or context-dependent hidden Markov model states ...

Waveguide physical modeling of vocal tract acoustics: flexible formant bandwidth control from increased model dimensionality [PDF]
, 2006 Digital waveguide physical modeling is often used as an efficient representation of acoustical resonators such as the human vocal tract. Building on the basic one-dimensional (1-D) Kelly-Lochbaum tract model, various speech synthesis techniques ...

Polyphonic Piano Transcription with a Note-Based Music Language Model
Applied Sciences, 2018 This paper proposes a note-based music language model (MLM) for improving note-level polyphonic piano transcription. The MLM is based on the recurrent structure, which could model the temporal correlations between notes in music sequences. To combine the

Modeling Speech Sound Radiation With Different Degrees of Realism for Articulatory Synthesis
IEEE Access, 2022 Articulatory synthesis is based on modeling various physical phenomena of speech production, including sound radiation from the mouth. With regard to sound radiation, the most common approach is to approximate it in terms of a simple spherical source of ...
