Unsupervised Learning of Acoustic Units Using Autoencoders and Kohonen Nets
This work investigates learning acoustic units in an unsupervised manner from real-world speech data by using a cascade of an autoencoder and a Kohonen net.
-
On the Issue of Calibration in DNN-Based Speaker Recognition Systems
This article is concerned with the issue of calibration in the context of Deep Neural Network (DNN) based approaches to speaker recognition. We propose a hybrid alignment framework, which stems…
-
Fusion Strategies for Robust Speech Recognition and Keyword Spotting for Channel- and Noise-Degraded Speech
Current state-of-the-art automatic speech recognition systems are sensitive to changing acoustic conditions, which can cause significant performance degradation.
