We present the first known empirical study on speech summarization without lexical features for Mandarin broadcast news. We evaluate acoustic, lexical and structural features as ...
Advances in Human Computer Interaction(HCI) technology has resulted in widespread development of natural language and speech applications. These applications are known to be compu...
A new framework for the context and speaker independent recognition of emotions from voice, based on a richer and more natural representation of the speech signal, is proposed. Th...
This paper investigates the problem of incorporating auxiliary information (e.g. pitch) for speech recognition using dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs). Previous works usually model...
We propose a new optimization algorithm called Generalized Baum Welch (GBW) algorithm for discriminative training on hidden Markov model (HMM). GBW is based on Lagrange relaxation...
