Evaluation of aspiration problems in L2 English pronunciation employing machine learning
PublikacjaThe approach proposed in this study includes methods specifically dedicated to the detection of allophonic variation in English. This study aims to find an efficient method for automatic evaluation of aspiration in the case of Polish second-language (L2) English speakers’ pronunciation when whole words are analyzed instead of particular allophones extracted from words. Sample words including aspirated and unaspirated allophones...

Audio Feature Analysis for Precise Vocalic Segments Classification in English
PublikacjaAn approach to identifying the most meaningful Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients representing selected allophones and vocalic segments for their classification is presented in the paper. For this purpose, experiments were carried out using algorithms such as Principal Component Analysis, Feature Importance, and Recursive Parameter Elimination. The data used were recordings made within the ALOFON corpus containing audio signal...

Automatic Marking of Allophone Boundaries in Isolated English spoken Words
PublikacjaThe work presents a method that allows delimiting the borders of allophones in isolated English words. The described method is based on the DTW algorithm combining two signals, a reference signal and an analyzed one. As the reference signal, recordings from the MODALITY database were used, from which the words were extracted. This database was also used for tests, which were described. Test results show that the automatic determination...

MACHINE LEARNING–BASED ANALYSIS OF ENGLISH LATERAL ALLOPHONES
PublikacjaAutomatic classification methods, such as artificial neural networks (ANNs), the k-nearest neighbor (kNN) and selforganizing maps (SOMs), are applied to allophone analysis based on recorded speech. A list of 650 words was created for that purpose, containing positionally and/or contextually conditioned allophones. For each word, a group of 16 native and non-native speakers were audio-video recorded, from which seven native speakers’...

Speech Analytics Based on Machine Learning
PublikacjaIn this chapter, the process of speech data preparation for machine learning is discussed in detail. Examples of speech analytics methods applied to phonemes and allophones are shown. Further, an approach to automatic phoneme recognition involving optimized parametrization and a classifier belonging to machine learning algorithms is discussed. Feature vectors are built on the basis of descriptors coming from the music information...

A comparative study of English viseme recognition methods and algorithm
PublikacjaAn elementary visual unit – the viseme is concerned in the paper in the context of preparing the feature vector as a main visual input component of Audio-Visual Speech Recognition systems. The aim of the presented research is a review of various approaches to the problem, the implementation of algorithms proposed in the literature and a comparative research on their effectiveness. In the course of the study an optimal feature vector...

Analysis of 2D Feature Spaces for Deep Learning-based Speech Recognition
Publikacjaconvolutional neural network (CNN) which is a class of deep, feed-forward artificial neural network. We decided to analyze audio signal feature maps, namely spectrograms, linear and Mel-scale cepstrograms, and chromagrams. The choice was made upon the fact that CNN performs well in 2D data-oriented processing contexts. Feature maps were employed in the Lithuanian word recognition task. The spectral analysis led to the highest word...

Examining Feature Vector for Phoneme Recognition
PublikacjaThe aim of this paper is to analyze usability of descriptors coming from music information retrieval to the phoneme analysis. The case study presented consists in several steps. First, a short overview of parameters utilized in speech analysis is given. Then, a set of time and frequency domain-based parameters is selected and discussed in the context of stop consonant acoustical characteristics. A toolbox created for this purpose...

Marking the Allophones Boundaries Based on the DTW Algorithm
PublikacjaThe paper presents an approach to marking the boundaries of allophones in the speech signal based on the Dynamic Time Warping (DTW) algorithm. Setting and marking of allophones boundaries in continuous speech is a difficult issue due to the mutual influence of adjacent phonemes on each other. It is this neighborhood on the one hand that creates variants of phonemes that is allophones, and on the other hand it affects that the border...

Objectivization of phonological evaluation of speech elements by means of audio parametrization
PublikacjaThis study addresses two issues related to both machine- and subjective-based speech evaluation by investigating five phonological phenomena related to allophone production. Its aim is to use objective parametrization and phonological classification of the recorded allophones. These allophones were selected as specifically difficult for Polish speakers of English: aspiration, final obstruent devoicing, dark lateral /l/, velar nasal...

REJESTRACJA, PARAMETRYZACJA I KLASYFIKACJA ALOFONÓW Z WYKORZYSTANIEM BIMODALNOŚCI
PublikacjaPraca dotyczy rejestracji i parametryzacji alofonów w języku angielskim z wykorzystaniem dwóch modalności. W badaniach dokonano rejestracji wypowiedzi w języku angielskim mówców, których znajomość tego języka odpowiada poziomowi rodowitego mówcy. W kolejnym etapie wyodrębnione zostały alofony z nagrań fonicznych i odpowiadające im sygnały wizyjne. W procesie tworzenia wektorów cech wykorzystano odrębne systemy parametryzacji,...

Visual perception of vowels from static and dynamic cues
PublikacjaThe purpose of the study was to analyse human identification of Polish vowels from static and dynamic durationally slowed visual cues. A total of 152 participants identified 6 Polish vowels produced by 4 speakers from static (still images) and dynamic (videos) cues. The results show that 59% of static vowels and 63% of dynamic vowels were successfully identified. There was a strong confusion between vowels within front, central,...

Zastosowanie sieci neuronowych w cyfrowej syntezie dźwięku
PublikacjaRozwój technik związanych z uczeniem maszynowym umożliwia nowe podejście i nowe definiowanie wielu dotychczasowych problemów. Heurystyczne algorytmy stosowane do problemów takich jak klasyfikacja danych w postaci wektorów cech, czy wyróżnianie grup obiektów o podobnych własnościach mogą znaleźć także zastosowanie w takich dziedzinach jak analiza i synteza dźwięków muzycznych. W referacie przybliżone zostały podstawowe zasady projektowania...
