Estimating the Spectral Density of Large Implicit Matrices

Ryan P. Adams, Jeffrey Pennington, Matthew J. Johnson +4

Many important problems are characterized by the eigenvalues of a large matrix. For example, the difficulty of many optimization problems, such as those arising from the fitting of…

A Remotely Interrogated All-Optical Rb Magnetometer

Brian Patton, Oscar Versolato, D. Chris Hovde +3

Atomic magnetometry was performed at Earth's magnetic field over a free-space distance of ten meters. Two laser beams aimed at a distant alkali-vapor cell excited and detected the…

Differentiable Consistency Constraints for Improved Deep Speech Enhancement

Scott Wisdom, John R. Hershey, Kevin Wilson +4

In recent years, deep networks have led to dramatic improvements in speech enhancement by framing it as a data-driven pattern recognition problem. In many modern enhancement system…

Light shift averaging in paraffin-coated alkali vapor cells

Elena Zhivun, Arne Wickenbrock, Julia Sudyka +3

Light shifts are an important source of noise and systematics in optically pumped magnetometers. We demonstrate that the long spin coherence time in paraffin-coated cells leads to…

AutoMOS: Learning a non-intrusive assessor of naturalness-of-speech

Brian Patton, Yannis Agiomyrgiannakis, Michael Terry +3

Developers of text-to-speech synthesizers (TTS) often make use of human raters to assess the quality of synthesized speech. We demonstrate that we can model human raters' mean opin…

Automatically Batching Control-Intensive Programs for Modern Accelerators

Alexey Radul, Brian Patton, Dougal Maclaurin +2

We present a general approach to batching arbitrary computations for accelerators such as GPUs. We show orders-of-magnitude speedups using our method on the No U-Turn Sampler (NUTS…
