Several studies have been dedicated to the analysis and modeling of AM–FM modulations in speech and different algorithms have been proposed for the exploitation of modulations i...
This paper investigates using Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) based vowel duration features for automated assessment of non-native speech. Two different types of models were compared...
Intonation is an important aspect of vocal production, used for a variety of communicative needs. Its modeling is therefore crucial in many speech understanding systems, particula...
In an attempt to overcome problems associated with articulatory limitations and generative models, this work considers the use of phonological features in discriminative models fo...
One major source of performance decline in speaker recognition system is channel mismatch between training and testing. This paper focuses on improving channel robustness of speake...
