Effective Exploitation of Posterior Information for Attention-Based Speech Recognition
End-to-end attention-based modeling is increasingly popular for tackling sequence-to-sequence mapping tasks. Traditional attention mechanisms utilize prior input information to derive attention, which then conditions the output.

Effective Dereverberation with a Lower Complexity at Presence of the Noise
Adaptive beamforming and deconvolution techniques have shown effectiveness for reducing noise and reverberation. The minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamformer is the most widely used for adaptive beamforming, whereas multichannel linear ...

Packet Loss Concealment Based on Phase Correction and Deep Neural Network
In a packet switching network, the performance of packet loss concealment (PLC) is often affected by inaccurate estimation of phase spectrum of speech signal in the lost packet.

Retrieval from memory: Vulnerable or inviolable? [PDF]
We show that retrieval from semantic memory is vulnerable even to the mere presence of speech. Irrelevant speech impairs semantic fluency—namely, lexical retrieval cued by a semantic category name—but only if it is meaningful (forward speech compared to ...

Impaired Auditory Temporal Selectivity in the Inferior Colliculus of Aged Mongolian Gerbils [PDF]
Aged humans show severe difficulties in temporal auditory processing tasks (e.g., speech recognition in noise, low-frequency sound localization, gap detection). A degradation of auditory function with age is also evident in experimental animals.

Robust Speaker Recognition Using Speech Enhancement And Attention Model [PDF]
In this paper, a novel architecture for speaker recognition is proposed by cascading speech enhancement and speaker processing. Its aim is to improve speaker recognition performance when speech signals are corrupted by noise.

Dataset of directional room impulse responses for realistic speech data
Obtaining real-world multi-channel speech recordings is expensive and time-consuming. Therefore, multi-channel recordings are often artificially generated by convolving existing monaural speech recordings with simulated Room Impulse Responses (RIRs) from
