Professional translators often dictate their translations orally and have them typed afterwards. The TransTalk project aims at automating the second part of this process. Its originality as a dictation system lies in the fact that both the…
Phonology, as it is practiced, is deeply computational. Phonological analysis is data-intensive and the resulting models are nothing other than specialized data structures and algorithms. In the past, phonological computation - managing…
Singing voice synthesis (SVS) is a task that aims to generate audio signals according to musical scores and lyrics. With its multifaceted nature concerning music and language, producing singing voices indistinguishable from that of human…
Current computational-emotion research has focused on applying acoustic properties to analyze how emotions are perceived mathematically or used in natural language processing machine learning models. While recent interest has focused on…
Speech is the fundamental mode of human communication, and its synthesis has long been a core priority in human-computer interaction research. In recent years, machines have managed to master the art of generating speech that is…
Systems powered by artificial intelligence are being developed to be more user-friendly by communicating with users in a progressively human-like conversational way. Chatbots, also known as dialogue systems, interactive conversational…
We present the dialogue module of the speech-to-speech translation system VERBMOBIL. We follow the approach that the solution to dialogue processing in a mediating scenario can not depend on a single constrained processing tool, but on a…
Humans are able to imagine a person's voice from the person's appearance and imagine the person's appearance from his/her voice. In this paper, we make the first attempt to develop a method that can convert speech into a voice that matches…
A sound source was proposed for acoustic measurements of physical models of the human vocal tract. The physical models are produced by Fast Prototyping, based on Magnetic Resonance Imaging during prolonged vowel production. The sound…
We present a practical course targeting graduate students with prior knowledge of the basics of quantum computing. The practical aims to deepen students' understanding of fundamental concepts in quantum computing by implementing quantum…
The paper considers the calibration of control-bounded analog-to-digital converters. It is demonstrated that variations of the analog frontend can be addressed by calibrating the digital estimation filter. In simulations (both behavioral…
Singing voice conversion is a task to convert a song sang by a source singer to the voice of a target singer. In this paper, we propose using a parallel data free, many-to-one voice conversion technique on singing voices. A phonetic…
Video-based dialog task is a challenging multimodal learning task that has received increasing attention over the past few years with state-of-the-art obtaining new performance records. This progress is largely powered by the adaptation of…
Singing Voice Conversion (SVC) aims to transform a source singing voice into a target singer while preserving lyrics and melody. Most existing SVC methods depend on F0 extractors to capture the lead melody from clean vocals. However, no…
Voice conversion is a method that allows for the transformation of speaking style while maintaining the integrity of linguistic information. There are many researchers using deep generative models for voice conversion tasks. Generative…
Advances in machine learning technology have enabled real-time extraction of semantic information in signals which can revolutionize signal processing techniques and improve their performance significantly for the next generation of…
An acoustic testing approach based on the concept of a microphone sensor surrounding the product under test is proposed. Microphone signals are processed simultaneously by a test system computer, according to the objective of the test. The…
Singing voice conversion aims to transform a source singing voice into that of a target singer while preserving the original lyrics, melody, and various vocal techniques. In this paper, we propose a high-fidelity singing voice conversion…
Analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) allow physical signals to be processed using digital hardware. Their conversion consists of two stages: Sampling, which maps a continuous-time signal into discrete-time, and quantization, i.e.,…
This paper proposes a system capable of recognizing a speaker's utterance-level emotion through multimodal cues in a video. The system seamlessly integrates multiple AI models to first extract and pre-process multimodal information from the…
