Comparison of Speech Tasks in Human Expert and Machine Detection of Parkinson's Disease

Peter Plantinga, Roozbeh Sattari, Karine Marcotte +8

The speech of people with Parkinson's Disease (PD) has been shown to hold important clues about the presence and progression of the disease. We investigate the factors based on whi…

From Black Box to Biomarker: Sparse Autoencoders for Interpreting Speech Models of Parkinson's Disease

Peter Plantinga, Jen-Kai Chen, Roozbeh Sattari +2

Speech holds promise as a cost-effective and non-invasive biomarker for neurological conditions such as Parkinson's disease (PD). While deep learning systems trained on raw audio c…

Continual Learning for End-to-End ASR by Averaging Domain Experts

Peter Plantinga, Jaekwon Yoo, Chandra Dhir

Continual learning for end-to-end automatic speech recognition has to contend with a number of difficulties. Fine-tuning strategies tend to lose performance on data already seen, a…

Perceptual Loss with Recognition Model for Single-Channel Enhancement and Robust ASR

Peter Plantinga, Deblin Bagchi, Eric Fosler-Lussier

Single-channel speech enhancement approaches do not always improve automatic recognition rates in the presence of noise, because they can introduce distortions unhelpful for recogn…

An Exploration of Mimic Architectures for Residual Network Based Spectral Mapping

Peter Plantinga, Deblin Bagchi, Eric Fosler-Lussier

Spectral mapping uses a deep neural network (DNN) to map directly from noisy speech to clean speech. Our previous study found that the performance of spectral mapping improves grea…

Spectral feature mapping with mimic loss for robust speech recognition

Deblin Bagchi, Peter Plantinga, Adam Stiff +1

For the task of speech enhancement, local learning objectives are agnostic to phonetic structures helpful for speech recognition. We propose to add a global criterion to ensure de-…
