Gaussian mixture models (GMMs) and the minimum error rate classifier (i.e. Bayesian optimal classifier) are popular and effective tools for speech emotion recognition. Typically, GMMs are used to model the class-conditional distributions of acoustic features and their parameters are estimated by the expectation maximization (EM) algorithm based on a training data set. Then, classification is performed...
Speech perceptual features, such as Mel-frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC), have been widely used in acoustic event detection. However, the different spectral structures between speech and acoustic events degrade the performance of the speech feature sets. We propose quantifying the discriminative capability of each feature component according to the approximated Bayesian accuracy and deriving...
We report on investigations, conducted at the 2006 Johns Hopkins Workshop, into the use of articulatory features (AFs) for observation and pronunciation models in speech recognition. In the area of observation modeling, we use the outputs of AF classifiers both directly, in an extension of hybrid HMM/neural network models, and as part of the observation vector, an extension of the "tandem"...
A theoretical basis for optimal multichannel speech enhancements presented, sufficient, flexible to be used with any assumed statistical model and optimality criterion. Any Bayesian optimal one-channel estimator for speech enhancement can be generalized to the multichannel case as a sequentially constructed minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamformer followed by an optimal one-channel...
