A flexible high-throughput hardware architecture for a gaussian noise generator
In this paper a exible, high-throughput, low-complexity additive white gaussian noise (AWGN) channel generator is presented. The proposed generator employs a Mersenne-Twister to g...

Why word error rate is not a good metric for speech recognizer training for the speech translation task?
Speech translation (ST) is an enabling technology for cross-lingual oral communication. A ST system consists of two major components: an automatic speech recognizer (ASR) and a ma...

Prediction of discrete cosine transformed coefficients in resized pixel blocks
Abstract— A hybrid model was developed to predict the zeroquantized discrete cosine transform (ZQDCT) coefficients for intra blocks in our previous work. However, the complicated...

Prosodic control of unit-selection speech synthesis: A probabilistic approach
One problem in concatenative speech synthesis is how to incorporate prosodic factors in the unit selection. Imposing a predicted prosodic target is error-prone and does not benefi...

An acoustically-motivated spatial prior for under-determined reverberant source separation
We consider the task of under-determined reverberant audio source separation. We model the contribution of each source to all mixture channels in the time-frequency domain as a ze...
