In this paper, we present a semi-supervised method for automatic speech act recognition in email and forums. The major challenge of this task is due to lack of labeled data in the...
Newborns must learn to structure incoming acoustic information into segments, words, phrases, etc., before they can start to learn language. This process is thought to rely on mod...

Adding punctuation and capitalization greatly improves the readability of automatic speech transcripts. We discuss an approach for performing both tasks in a single pass using a p...
In this paper we describe a noise reduction preprocessing algorithm for the adaptive multirate (AMR) speech codec of the GSM system. The algorithm is based on spectral weighting a...
