Abstract:
Speech coding is an essential technology for digital cellular communications, voice over IP, and video conferencing systems. For more than 25 years, the main approach to speech coding for these applications has been block-based analysis-by-synthesis linear predictive coding. An alternative approach that has been less successful is sample-by-sample tree coding of speech. We reformulate this latter approach as a multistage reinforcement learning problem with L step lookahead that incorporates exploration and exploitation to adapt model parameters and to control the speech analysis/synthesis proc

Abstract:
In this paper, we address the problem of howling detection in speech reinforcement system applications for utilization in howling control mechanisms. A general speech reinforcement system acquires speech from a speaker’s microphone, and delivers a reinforced speech to other listeners in the same room, or another room, through loudspeakers. The amount of gain that can be applied to the acquired speech in the closed-loop system is constrained by electro-acoustic coupling in the system, manifested in howling noises appearing as a result of acoustic feedback.

A model can be trained to minimize errors in speech-to-text transcription, especially for technical medical terminology. In this case, the “reward” to the RL model can

Many speech-language pathologists experience students who demonstrate challenging behaviors during sessions both in the classroom and in the therapy room. Positive reinforcement and other traditional supports can ameliorate these behaviors. However, when students become used to these methods, speech-language pathologists are often at a loss and must look to other methods to work through the challenging behaviors. Themes explored in this article include changing perspectives on “behavior,” building relationships, constructing the treatment environment, and reinforcement schedules.

Abstract:
Audio-visual speech recognition (AVSR) has gained remarkable success for ameliorating the noise-robustness of speech recognition. Mainstream methods focus on fusing audio and visual inputs to obtain modality-invariant representations. However, such representations are prone to over-reliance on audio modality as it is much easier to recognize than video modality in clean conditions. As a result, the AVSR model underestimates the importance of visual stream in face of noise corruption. To this end, we leverage visual modality-specific representations to provide stable complementary information f

Abstract:
For most automatic speech recognition systems, many unacceptable hypothesis errors still make the recognition results absurd and difficult to understand. In this paper, we introduce the grammar information to improve the performance of the grammatical deviation distance and increase the readability of the hypothesis. The reinforcement of word embedding with grammar embedding is presented to intensify the grammar expression. An auxiliary text-to-grammar task is provided to improve the performance of the recognition results with the downstream task evaluation. Furthermore, the multiple evaluatio

Abstract:
Heiby's 1982 self-reinforcement questionnaire (a measure of the ability to reward oneself selectively for constructive behaviors or efforts and to nurture a positive self-image by means of a supportive internal speech) was administered to 12 normal controls (psychiatric nurses), 11 paranoid schizophrenic patients (DSM-III—R), 8 bipolar patients currently manic (DSM-III—R), and 12 inpatients treated for substance abuse (DSM-III—R). No significant mean differences were found on analysis of variance. The means of the groups of psychiatric inpatients and of normal persons are comparable to means o

Abstract:
The current study is an attempt to address some of the issues surrounding social media use with more emphasis on their role in reinforcing human relationships and spreading hatred speech. For the sake of presenting a comprehensive overview of the issue, a blend of quantitative and qualitative methodologies was implemented in the present study to analyse presence and incidence of hate speech and friendly relationship discourse in social media. To embark on such endeavour, a mixed- method, encompassing both a questionnaire and corpus analysis, is adopted. The targeted sample of the questionnaire

Abstract:
This study examined the role of speech perception training in the correction of phonological errors. Twenty-seven preschoolers with phonological impairment who misarticulated /∫/ were randomly assigned to one of three groups: Group 1 children listened to a variety of correctly and incorrectly produced versions of the word “shoe”; Group 2 children listened to the words “shoe” and “moo”; Group 3 children listened to the words “cat” and “Pete.” A computer game was used to provide reinforcement for correct identification of the words. All children received the same traditional sound production tra
