Recently, a novel and structural representation of speech was proposed [1, 2], where the inevitable acoustic variations caused by nonlinguistic factors are effectively removed fro...
In this work we show how conditional mean imputation can be bounded through the use of box-truncated Gaussian distributions. That is of interest when signals or features are partl...

This paper presents a framework for maximum a posteriori (MAP) speaker adaptation of state duration distributions in hidden Markov models (HMM). Four key issues of MAP estimation, ...
We present an algorithm for dereverberation of speech signals for automatic speech recognition (ASR) applications. Often ASR systems are presented with speech that has been record...
