This paper presents a novel probabilistic approach to speech enhancement. Instead of a deterministic logarithmic relationship, we assume a probabilistic relationship between the fr...
We previously proposed a decoding method for automatic speech recognition utilizing hypothesis scores weighted by voice activity detection (VAD)-measures. This method uses two Gau...
Spoken language is one of the most intuitive forms of interaction between humans and agents. Unfortunately, agents that interact with people using natural language often experienc...
Multimodal grammars provide an expressive formalism for multimodal integration and understanding. However, handcrafted multimodal grammars can be brittle with respect to unexpecte...
