The proportionate normalized least-mean squares (PNLMS) adaptation algorithm exploits the sparse nature of acoustic impulse responses and assigns adaptation gain proportional to t...
The speech parameter generation algorithm considering global variance (GV) for HMM-based speech synthesis proved to be effective against the over-smoothing problem. However, the c...
A common problem in speech recognition for foreign accented speech is that there is not enough training data for an accent-specific or a speaker-specific recognizer. Speaker ada...
—This paper presents a visual speech synthesizer providing midsagittal and front views of the vocal tract to help language learners to correct their mispronunciations. We adopt ...
We propose the Arabic Chat Alphabet (ACA) as naturally written in everyday life for dialectal Arabic speech transcription. Our assumption is that ACA is a natural language that in...
