Interspeech 20222022Acoustic events are sounds with well-defined spectro-temporal characteristics which can be associated with the physical objects generating them. Acoustic scenes are collections of such acoustic events in no specific temporal order. Given this natural linkage between events and scenes, a common belief is that the ability to classify events must help in the classification of scenes. This has led to several

ESA 2022, Networks2022Motivated by a real-world vehicle routing application, we consider the maximum-weight independent set problem: Given a node-weighted graph, find a set of independent (mutually nonadjacent) nodes whose node-weight sum is maximum. Some of the graphs airsing in this application are large, having hundreds of thousands of nodes and hundreds of millions of edges. To solve instances of this size, we develop a

Interspeech 20222022Neural vocoders have recently demonstrated high quality speech synthesis, but typically require a high computational complexity. LPCNet was proposed as a way to reduce the complexity of neural synthesis by using linear prediction (LP) to assist an autoregressive model. At inference time, LPCNet relies on the LP coefficients being explicitly computed from the input acoustic features. That makes the design

AutoML Conference 20222022Key factors underpinning the optimal Knowledge Distillation (KD) performance remain elusive as the effects of these factors are often confounded in sophisticated distillation algorithms. This poses a challenge for choosing the best distillation algorithm from the large design space for existing and new tasks alike and hinders automated distillation. In this work, we aim to identify how the distillation

Interspeech 20222022As deep speech enhancement algorithms have recently demonstrated capabilities greatly surpassing their traditional counterparts for suppressing noise, reverberation and echo, attention is turning to the problem of packet loss concealment (PLC). PLC is a challenging task because it not only involves real-time speech synthesis, but also frequent transitions between the received audio and the synthesized concealment
