In this work we aim to discover high quality speech features and linguistic units directly from unlabeled speech data in a zero resource scenario. The results are evaluated using the metrics and corpora proposed in the Zero Resource Speech…

This paper summarizes the work done by the authors for the Zero Resource Speech Challenge organized in the technical program of Interspeech 2015. The goal of the challenge is to discover linguistic units directly from unlabeled speech data.…

It is well known that recognizers personalized to each user are much more effective than user-independent recognizers. With the popularity of smartphones today, although it is not difficult to collect a large set of audio data for each…

In this paper, we compare two paradigms for unsupervised discovery of structured acoustic tokens directly from speech corpora without any human annotation. The Multigranular Paradigm seeks to capture all available information in the corpora…

The present study tackles the problem of automatically discovering spoken keywords from untranscribed audio archives without requiring word-by-word speech transcription by automatic speech recognition (ASR) technology. The problem is of…

This research addresses the problem of acoustic modeling of low-resource languages for which transcribed training data is absent. The goal is to learn robust frame-level feature representations that can be used to identify and distinguish…

Environmental audio tagging aims to predict only the presence or absence of certain acoustic events in the interested acoustic scene. In this paper we make contributions to audio tagging in two parts, respectively, acoustic modeling and…

This paper presents a new approach for unsupervised Spoken Term Detection with spoken queries using multiple sets of acoustic patterns automatically discovered from the target corpus. The different pattern HMM configurations(number of…

(Part of the abstract) In this thesis, we investigate the use of unsupervised spoken term discovery in tackling this problem. Unsupervised spoken term discovery aims to discover topic-related terminologies in a speech without knowing the…

Unsupervised discovery of acoustic tokens from audio corpora without annotation and learning vector representations for these tokens have been widely studied. Although these techniques have been shown successful in some applications such as…

Unsupervised spoken term discovery consists of two tasks: finding the acoustic segment boundaries and labeling acoustically similar segments with the same labels. We perform segmentation based on the assumption that the frame feature…

In this paper, we propose an iterative framework for self-supervised speaker representation learning based on a deep neural network (DNN). The framework starts with training a self-supervision speaker embedding network by maximizing…

Speakers tend to engage in adaptive behavior, known as entrainment, when they become similar to their interlocutor in various aspects of speaking. We present an unsupervised deep learning framework that derives meaningful representation…

The massive growth of self-supervised learning (SSL) has been witnessed in language, vision, speech, and audio domains over the past few years. While discrete label prediction is widely adopted for other modalities, the state-of-the-art…

Acoustic event detection for content analysis in most cases relies on lots of labeled data. However, manually annotating data is a time-consuming task, which thus makes few annotated resources available so far. Unlike audio event detection,…

Techniques for unsupervised discovery of acoustic patterns are getting increasingly attractive, because huge quantities of speech data are becoming available but manual annotations remain hard to acquire. In this paper, we propose an…

Many approaches can derive information about a single speaker's identity from the speech by learning to recognize consistent characteristics of acoustic parameters. However, it is challenging to determine identity information when there are…

This study tackles unsupervised subword modeling in the zero-resource scenario, learning frame-level speech representation that is phonetically discriminative and speaker-invariant, using only untranscribed speech for target languages.…

In this paper we propose the Structured Deep Neural Network (structured DNN) as a structured and deep learning framework. This approach can learn to find the best structured object (such as a label sequence) given a structured input (such…

This paper presents a novel approach for enhancing the multiple sets of acoustic patterns automatically discovered from a given corpus. In a previous work it was proposed that different HMM configurations (number of states per model, number…
