Speech Processing and Prosody [PDF]

, 2019
The prosody of the speech signal conveys information over the linguistic content of the message: prosody structures the utterance, and also brings information on speaker's attitude and speaker's emotion. Duration of sounds, energy and fundamental frequency are the prosodic features. However their automatic computation and usage are not obvious.

Effective Exploitation of Posterior Information for Attention-Based Speech Recognition

IEEE Access, 2020
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

Applied Sciences, 2022
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 ...

Automatic Assessment of Parkinson’s Disease Using Speech Representations of Phonation and Articulation

, 2022
Speech from people with Parkinson's disease (PD) are likely to be degraded on phonation, articulation, and prosody. Motivated to describe articulation deficits comprehensively, we investigated 1) the universal phonological features that model ...
