Specially adapted speech recognition models are necessary to handle stuttered speech. For these to be used in a targeted manner, stuttered speech must be reliably detected. Recent works have treated stuttering as a multi-class…

Speech disfluencies in spontaneous communication can be categorized as either typical or atypical. Typical disfluencies, such as hesitations and repetitions, are natural occurrences in everyday speech, while atypical disfluencies are…

This paper presents a novel approach named PASAD that detects changes in perceptually fluent speech acoustics of young children. Particularly, analysis of perceptually fluent speech enables identifying the speech-motor-control factors that…

Stutter removal is an essential scenario in the field of speech editing. However, when the speech recording contains stutters, the existing text-based speech editing approaches still suffer from: 1) the over-smoothing problem in the edited…

Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) transcripts often contain disfluencies, such as fillers, repetitions, and false starts, which reduce readability and hinder downstream applications like chatbots and voice assistants. If left unaddressed,…

In recent years, advancements in the field of speech processing have led to cutting-edge deep learning algorithms with immense potential for real-world applications. The automated identification of stuttered speech is one of such…

Stuttering is a speech disorder where the natural flow of speech is interrupted by blocks, repetitions or prolongations of syllables, words and phrases. The majority of existing automatic speech recognition (ASR) interfaces perform poorly…

Dysfluencies and variations in speech pronunciation can severely degrade speech recognition performance, and for many individuals with moderate-to-severe speech disorders, voice operated systems do not work. Current speech recognition…

This paper presents a new approach for classification of dysfluent and fluent speech using Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC). The speech is fluent when person's speech flows easily and smoothly. Sounds combine into syllable,…

Most stuttering detection and classification research has viewed stuttering as a multi-class classification problem or a binary detection task for each dysfluency type; however, this does not match the nature of stuttering, in which one…

End-to-end approaches open a new way for more accurate and efficient spoken language understanding (SLU) systems by alleviating the drawbacks of traditional pipeline systems. Previous works exploit textual information for an SLU model via…

Speech disorders such as stuttering disrupt the normal fluency of speech by involuntary repetitions, prolongations and blocking of sounds and syllables. In addition to these disruptions to speech fluency, most adults who stutter (AWS) also…

Dysfluent speech modeling requires time-accurate and silence-aware transcription at both the word-level and phonetic-level. However, current research in dysfluency modeling primarily focuses on either transcription or detection, and the…

This paper presents a model for disfluency detection in spontaneous speech transcripts called LSTM Noisy Channel Model. The model uses a Noisy Channel Model (NCM) to generate n-best candidate disfluency analyses and a Long Short-Term Memory…

Stuttered and dysfluent speech detection systems have traditionally suffered from the trade-off between accuracy and clinical interpretability. While end-to-end deep learning models achieve high performance, their black-box nature limits…

Underwater object detection (UOD) remains a critical challenge in computer vision due to underwater distortions which degrade low-level features and compromise the reliability of even state-of-the-art detectors. While YOLO models have…

The SOTA in transcription of disfluent and conversational speech has in recent years favored two-stage models, with separate transcription and cleaning stages. We believe that previous attempts at end-to-end disfluency removal have fallen…

Audio segmentation and sound event detection are crucial topics in machine listening that aim to detect acoustic classes and their respective boundaries. It is useful for audio-content analysis, speech recognition, audio-indexing, and music…

Recent advancements in video diffusion models have significantly enhanced audio-driven portrait animation. However, current methods still suffer from flickering, identity drift, and poor audio-visual synchronization. These issues primarily…

Dyslexia affects reading and writing skills across many languages. This work describes a new application of YOLO-based object detection to isolate and label handwriting patterns (Normal, Reversal, Corrected) within synthetic images that…
