The recent surge in popularity of diffusion models for image generation has brought new attention to the potential of these models in other areas of media generation. One area that has yet to be fully explored is the application of…
A novel feature, based on the chirp z-transform, that offers an improved representation of the underlying true spectrum is proposed. This feature, the chirp MFCC, is derived by computing the Mel frequency cepstral coefficients from the…
While recent research advances in speaker diarization mostly focus on improving the quality of diarization results, there is also an increasing interest in improving the efficiency of diarization systems. In this paper, we demonstrate that…
Despite rapid progress in the voice style transfer (VST) field, recent zero-shot VST systems still lack the ability to transfer the voice style of a novel speaker. In this paper, we present HierVST, a hierarchical adaptive end-to-end…
CAPTCHAs are employed as a security measure to differentiate human users from bots. A new sound-based CAPTCHA is proposed in this paper, which exploits the gaps between human voice and synthetic voice rather than relays on the auditory…
Negative transfer in training of acoustic models for automatic speech recognition has been reported in several contexts such as domain change or speaker characteristics. This paper proposes a novel technique to overcome negative transfer by…
One of the main challenges in building a large scale publish-subscribe infrastructure in an enterprise network, is to provide the subscribers with the required information, while minimizing the consumed host and network resources.…
In this report, we investigate the data transmission model in which a sequence of data is broadcasted to a number of receivers. The receivers, which have different channel capacities, wish to decode the data sequentially at different rates.…
A practical and scalable multicast beamformer design in multi-input multi-output~(MIMO) coded caching~(CC) systems is introduced in this paper. The proposed approach allows multicast transmission to multiple groups with partially…
In this paper, we discuss the feasibility of creating an UltraSound (US) communication circuit to wireless transmit outside the body diagnostic information from multiplexed biosensors chip built on the top layer of a drinkable CMOS Body…
Since its inception, underwater digital acoustic communication has required custom hardware that neither has the economies of scale nor is pervasive. We present the first acoustic system that brings underwater messaging capabilities to…
Encoding schemes and error-correcting codes are widely used in information technology to improve the reliability of data transmission over real-world communication channels. Quantum information protocols can further enhance the performance…
The paper presents the method of transferring PCM (Pulse-Code Modulation) based audio messages through SMS (Short Message Service) over GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) network. As SMS is text based service, and could not send…
This paper considers a multiuser multiple-input single-output (MISO) downlink system with simultaneous wireless information and power transfer. In particular, we focus on secure communication in the presence of passive eavesdroppers and…
Teaching is one of the most important factors affecting any education system. Many research efforts have been conducted to facilitate the presentation modes used by instructors in classrooms as well as provide means for students to review…
In this paper we report on a multimedia communication system including a VCoIP (Video Conferencing over IP) software with a distributed architecture and its applications for teaching scenarios. It is a simple, ready-to-use scheme for…
Because computers may contain or interact with sensitive information, they are often air-gapped and in this way kept isolated and disconnected from the Internet. In recent years the ability of malware to communicate over an air-gap by…
We present the design of a new passive wireless communication system that does not rely on ambient or generated RF sources. Instead, we exploit the Johnson (thermal) noise generated by a resistor to transmit information bits wirelessly. By…
Broadband microwave waveforms with programmable chirp shapes are captivating in numerous practical applications. Compared with electronic technology, photonic-assisted solutions exhibit excellent performance in bandwidth and flexibility,…
Properly setting up recording conditions, including microphone type and placement, room acoustics, and ambient noise, is essential to obtaining the desired acoustic characteristics of speech. In this paper, we propose Diff-R-EN-T, a…
