Fusion of acoustic, perceptual and production features for robust speech recognition non-stationary noise
This paper shows that fusion of multiple noise robust feature streams motivated by speech production and perception theories help to significantly improve the robustness of traditional speech recognition systems.

Growth Kinetics of the Anodic Oxide Film on Platinum under Potentiodynamic Polarization Conditions
A theory for the anodic oxidation of a metal under linear potentiodynamic conditions is derived based upon the Point Defect Model, by considering two contributions to the current; that from…

A noise robust i-vector extractor using vector taylor series for speaker recognition
We propose a novel approach for noise-robust speaker recognition, where the model of distortions caused by additive and convolutive noises is integrated into the i-vector extraction framework.
