This study aims at uncovering perceptually-relevant acoustic cues for the labial versus alveolar place of articulation distinction in syllable-initial plosives {/b/,/d/,/p/,/t/} a...
In this paper, we extend the work done on integrating multilayer perceptron (MLP) networks with HMM systems via the Tandem approach. In particular, we explore whether the use of D...

The standard, ad-hoc stopping criteria used in decision tree-based context clustering are known to be sub-optimal and require parameters to be tuned. This paper proposes a new app...
The spectral subtraction method is historically one of the first algorithms proposed for noise reduction. However, most implementations and variations of the basic technique cann...
