Acoustic model training for non-audible murmur recognition using transformed normal speech data
In this paper we present a novel approach to acoustic model training for non-audible murmur (NAM) recognition using normal speech data transformed into NAM data. NAM is extremely ...

Classifier Combination for Contextual Idiom Detection Without Labelled Data
We propose a novel unsupervised approach for distinguishing literal and non-literal use of idiomatic expressions. Our model combines an unsupervised and a supervised classifier. T...

A sampling-based environment population projection approach for rapid acoustic model adaptation
We propose an environment population projection (EPP) approach for rapid acoustic model adaptation to reduce environment mismatches with limited amounts of adaptation data. This a...

Unsupervised speaker adaptation for telephone call transcription
The use of the PC and Internet for placing telephone calls will present new opportunities to capture vast amounts of un-transcribed speech for a particular speaker. This paper inv...
