Endowing machines with sensing capabilities similar to those of humans is a prevalent
quest in engineering and computer science. In the pursuit of making computers sense their …

Communication has been an essential part of being human and living in society. There are
several different languages and variations of them, so you can speak English in one place …

A computational model of auditory analysis is described that is inspired by psychoacoustical
and neurophysiological findings in early and central stages of the auditory system. The …

This work explores the use of constant-Q transform based modulation spectral features (CQT-
MSF) for speech emotion recognition (SER). The human perception and analysis of sound …

Music signal processing may appear to be the junior relation of the large and mature field of
speech signal processing, not least because many techniques and representations …

Detection thresholds for spectral and temporal modulations are measured using broadband
spectra with sinusoidally rippled profiles that drift up or down the log-frequency axis at …

Today, a large number of audio features exists in audio retrieval for different purposes, such
as automatic speech recognition, music information retrieval, audio segmentation, and …

Infrared spectroscopic techniques, in combination with chemometric approaches, have been
widely used to estimate different physical and chemical properties in soil samples. This …

The performance of present-day automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems is seriously
compromised by levels of acoustic interference (such as additive noise and room …

Since their inception almost fifty years ago, hidden Markov models (HMMs) have have
become the predominant methodology for automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems …
