A subthreshold signal is transmitted through a channel and may be detected when some noise -- with known structure and proportional to some level -- is added to the data. There is an optimal noise level, called stochastic resonance, that…
A method is derived for the quantitative analysis of signals that are composed of superpositions of isolated, time-localized "events". Here these events are taken to be well represented as rescaled and phase-rotated versions of generalized…

This paper considers a sequential sensor scheduling and remote estimation problem with one sensor and one estimator. The sensor makes sequential observations about the state of an underlying memoryless stochastic process and makes a…
In a hybrid speech model, both voiced and unvoiced components can coexist in a segment. Often, the voiced speech is regarded as the deterministic component, and the unvoiced speech and additive noise are the stochastic components.…
Syllable detection is an important speech analysis task with applications in speech rate estimation, word segmentation, and automatic prosody detection. Based on the well understood acoustic correlates of speech articulation, it has been…
Extracting features from the speech is the most critical process in speech signal processing. Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) are the most widely used features in the majority of the speaker and speech recognition applications,…
Diffusion models have attracted a lot of attention in recent years. These models view speech generation as a continuous-time process. For efficient training, this process is typically restricted to additive Gaussian noising, which is…

In this paper, we explore a continuous modeling approach for deep-learning-based speech enhancement, focusing on the denoising process. We use a state variable to indicate the denoising process. The starting state is noisy speech and the…
We address a phase estimation scheme using Gaussian states in the presence of non-Gaussian phase noise. At variance with previous analysis, we analyze situations in which the noise occurs before encoding phase information. In particular, we…
In a noisy environment, a lossy speech signal can be automatically restored by a listener if he/she knows the language well. That is, with the built-in knowledge of a "language model", a listener may effectively suppress noise interference…
Speech time reversal refers to the process of reversing the entire speech signal in time, causing it to play backward. Such signals are completely unintelligible since the fundamental structures of phonemes and syllables are destroyed.…
Suppose that a sequence of numbers $x_n$ (a `signal') is transmitted through a noisy channel. The receiver observes a noisy version of the signal with additive random fluctuations, $x_n + \xi_n$, where $\xi_n$ is a sequence of independent…
Automatic speech recognition systems have created exciting possibilities for applications, however they also enable opportunities for systematic eavesdropping. We propose a method to camouflage a person's voice over-the-air from these…
Compressing self-supervised models has become increasingly necessary, as self-supervised models become larger. While previous approaches have primarily focused on compressing the model size, shortening sequences is also effective in…
Speech tokenization is the task of representing speech signals as a sequence of discrete units. Such representations can be later used for various downstream tasks including automatic speech recognition, text-to-speech, etc. More relevant…
This paper describes representations of time-dependent signals that are invariant under any invertible time-independent transformation of the signal time series. Such a representation is created by rescaling the signal in a non-linear…
