In this paper, we merge speech act theory, emotion theory, and logic. We propose a modal logic that integrates the concepts of belief, goal, ideal and responsibility and that allo...
Spectral envelopes of speech signals are typically obtained by making stationarity assumptions about the signal which are not always valid. The Adaptive Quasi-Harmonic Model (AQHM...
Prior models of speech have been used in robust automatic speech recognition to enhance noisy speech. Typically, a single prior model is trained by pooling the entire training dat...

In this work we propose the use of Functional Data Analysis (FDA) as a powerful methodology to tackle problems where multiple continuous speech parameters have to be analyzed join...
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...
