This paper describes the team (“ODI-ANLP”)’s submission to WAT 2020. We have participated in the English→HindiMultimodal task and Indic task. We have used the state-of-the-art Transformer model for the translation task and Incep-tionResNetV2 for the Hindi ...
In this paper, we describe the participation of the Idiap Research Institute at GermEval 2020 shared task on the Classification and Regression of Cognitive and Motivational style from Text, specifically on subtask 2, Classification of the Operant Motive Te ...
Advances in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) over the last decade opened new areas of speech-based automation such as in Air-Traffic Control (ATC) environments. Currently, voice communication and Controller Pilot Data Link Communications are the only way ...
This paper presents the MuMMER data set, a data set for human-robot interaction scenarios that is available for research purposes% It comprises 1 h 29 min of multimodal recordings of people interacting with the social robot Pepper in entertainment scenario ...
In i-vector based speaker recognition systems, back-end classifiers are trained to factor out nuisance information and retain only the speaker identity. As a result, variabilities arising due to gender, language and accent ( among many others) are suppress ...
This paper explores novel ideas in building end-to-end deep neural network (DNN) based text-dependent speaker verification (SV) system. The baseline approach consists of mapping a variable length speech segment to a fixed dimensional speaker vector by esti ...
We propose to use neural networks for simultaneous detection and localization of multiple sound sources in human-robot interaction. In contrast to conventional signal processing techniques, neural network-based sound source localization methods require few ...
We propose a novel multi-task neural network-based approach for joint sound source localization and speech/non-speech classification in noisy environments. The network takes raw short time Fourier transform as input and outputs the likelihood values for th ...
In Deep Neural Network (DNN) i-vector based speaker recognition systems, acoustic models trained for Automatic Speech Recognition are employed to estimate sufficient statistics for i-vector modeling. The DNN based acoustic model is typically trained on a w ...
In the last decade, i-vector and Joint Factor Analysis (JFA) approaches to speaker modeling have become ubiquitous in the area of automatic speaker recognition. Both of these techniques involve the computation of posterior probabilities, using either Gauss ...
Model-based approaches to Speaker Verification (SV), such as Joint Factor Analysis (JFA), i-vector and relevance Maximum-a-Posteriori (MAP), have shown to provide state-of-the-art performance for text-dependent systems with fixed phrases. The performance o ...
Multi-session training conditions are becoming increasingly common in recent benchmark datasets for both text-independent and text-dependent speaker verification. In the state-of-the-art i-vector framework for speaker verification, such conditions are addr ...
This paper describes SIIP (Speaker Identification Integrated Project) a high performance innovative and sustainable Speaker Identification (SID) solution, running over large voice samples database. The solution is based on development, integration and fusi ...
Acoustic modeling based on deep architectures has recently gained remarkable success, with substantial improvement of speech recognition accuracy in several automatic speech recognition (ASR) tasks. For distant speech recognition, the multi-channel deep ne ...
The aim of the domain-adaptation task for speaker verification is to exploit unlabelled target domain data by using the labelled source domain data effectively. The i-vector based Probabilistic Linear Dis- criminant Analysis (PLDA) framework approaches thi ...
The i-vector and Joint Factor Analysis (JFA) systems for text- dependent speaker verification use sufficient statistics computed from a speech utterance to estimate speaker models. These statis- tics average the acoustic information over the utterance ther ...
Performing speaker diarization while uniquely identifying the speakers in a collection of audio recordings is a challenging task. Based on our previous work on speaker diarization and linking, we developed a system for diarizing longitudinal TV show data s ...
