A novel probe processing method for underwater communication by passive-phase conjugation
Underwater acoustic communication by passive-phase conjugation uses a channel probe signal transmitted prior to the data signal in order to estimate the channel response. At the r...

Nonnegative 3-way tensor factorization via conjugate gradient with globally optimal stepsize
This paper deals with the minimal polyadic decomposition (also known as canonical decomposition or Parafac) of a 3way array, assuming each entry is positive. In this case, the low...

Exploiting active-learning strategies for annotating prosodic events with limited labeled data
Many applications of spoken-language systems can benefit from having access to annotations of prosodic events. Unfortunately, obtaining human annotations of these events, even se...

Robust speech representation of voiced sounds based on synchrony determination with PLLs
We propose to include synchrony effects, known to exist in the auditory system, to represent voiced parts of the speech signal in a robust way. The system decomposes the input sig...
