The goal of this paper is to investigate the impact of dictionary choosing for a total variation dictionary model. After theoretical analysis, we present the experiments in which ...
Neural networks are a useful alternative to Gaussian mixture models for acoustic modeling; however, training multilayer networks involves a difficult, nonconvex optimization that...
In this paper we investigate the use of formant and antiformant measurements of nasal consonants for speaker verification. The features are obtained using a pole-zero vocal tract...
The length of the room impulse response characterizing the acoustic path between speaker and microphone is significantly larger than the length of the analysis window used for fea...
Structuring of information proceeds through the foregrounding of certain parts of the information. In general, foregrounding can be realized on various linguistic levels and it is...
