Acoustic-to-articulatory mapping with joint optimization of deep speech enhancement and articulatory inversion models

AS Shahrebabaki, G Salvi, T Svendsen… - … on Audio, Speech …, 2021 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
We investigate the problem of speaker independent acoustic-to-articulatory inversion (AAI)
in noisy conditions within the deep neural network (DNN) framework. In contrast with recent …

Retrieving tract variables from acoustics: a comparison of different machine learning strategies

V Mitra, H Nam, CY Espy-Wilson… - IEEE journal of …, 2010 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
Many different studies have claimed that articulatory information can be used to improve the
performance of automatic speech recognition systems. Unfortunately, such articulatory …

Speaker-adaptive acoustic-articulatory inversion using cascaded gaussian mixture regression

T Hueber, L Girin, X Alameda-Pineda… - … /ACM Transactions on …, 2015 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
This paper addresses the adaptation of an acoustic-articulatory model of a reference
speaker to the voice of another speaker, using a limited amount of audio-only data. In the …

Recognizing articulatory gestures from speech for robust speech recognition

V Mitra, H Nam, C Espy-Wilson, E Saltzman… - The Journal of the …, 2012 - pubs.aip.org
Studies have shown that supplementary articulatory information can help to improve the
recognition rate of automatic speech recognition systems. Unfortunately, articulatory …

Articulatory and spectrum information fusion based on deep recurrent neural networks

J Yu, K Markov, T Matsui - IEEE/ACM Transactions on Audio …, 2019 - ieeexplore.ieee.org
