Roles of the average voice in speaker-adaptive HMM-based speech synthesis
In speaker-adaptive HMM-based speech synthesis, there are a few speakers whose synthetic speech sounds worse than that of other speakers, despite having the same amount of adaptat...

Sparse component analysis for speech recognition in multi-speaker environment
Sparse Component Analysis is a relatively young technique that relies upon a representation of signal occupying only a small part of a larger space. Mixtures of sparse components ...

Speaker and language adaptive training for HMM-based polyglot speech synthesis
This paper proposes a technique for speaker and language adaptive training for HMM-based polyglot speech synthesis. Language-specific context-dependencies in the system are captur...

Can tongue be recovered from face? the answer of data-driven statistical models
This study revisits the face-to-tongue articulatory inversion problem in speech. We compare the Multi Linear Regression method (MLR) with two more sophisticated methods based on H...

Modified hierarchical clustering for sparse component analysis
The under-determined blind source separation (BSS) problem is usually solved using the sparse component analysis (SCA) technique. In SCA, the BSS is usually solved in two steps, w...

Background music identification through content filtering and min-hash matching
A novel framework for background music identification is proposed in this paper. Given a piece of audio signals that mixes background music with speech/noise, we identify the musi...
