How Attention Shapes Emotion: A Comparative Study of Attention Mechanisms for Speech Emotion Recognition
Marc Casals-Salvador, Federico Costa, Rodolfo Zevallos +1
Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) plays a key role in advancing human-computer interaction. Attention mechanisms have become the dominant approach for modeling emotional speech due…
Quantifying Cross-Lingual Transfer in Paralinguistic Speech Tasks
Pol Buitrago, Oriol Pareras, Federico Costa +1
Paralinguistic speech tasks are often considered relatively language-agnostic, as they rely on extralinguistic acoustic cues rather than lexical content. However, prior studies rep…
Listening or Reading? Evaluating Speech Awareness in Chain-of-Thought Speech-to-Text Translation
Jacobo Romero-Díaz, Gerard I. Gállego, Oriol Pareras +3
Speech-to-Text Translation (S2TT) systems built from Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) and Text-to-Text Translation (T2TT) modules face two major limitations: error propagation an…
Revisiting Direct Speech-to-Text Translation with Speech LLMs: Better Scaling than CoT Prompting?
Oriol Pareras, Gerard I. Gállego, Federico Costa +2
Recent work on Speech-to-Text Translation (S2TT) has focused on LLM-based models, introducing the increasingly adopted Chain-of-Thought (CoT) prompting, where the model is guided t…
On the Use of Audio to Improve Dialogue Policies
Daniel Roncel, Federico Costa, Javier Hernando
With the significant progress of speech technologies, spoken goal-oriented dialogue systems are becoming increasingly popular. One of the main modules of a dialogue system is typic…
BSC-UPC at EmoSPeech-IberLEF2024: Attention Pooling for Emotion Recognition
Marc Casals-Salvador, Federico Costa, Miquel India +1
The domain of speech emotion recognition (SER) has persistently been a frontier within the landscape of machine learning. It is an active field that has been revolutionized in the…
Double Multi-Head Attention Multimodal System for Odyssey 2024 Speech Emotion Recognition Challenge
Federico Costa, Miquel India, Javier Hernando
As computer-based applications are becoming more integrated into our daily lives, the importance of Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) has increased significantly. Promoting research…
Speaker Characterization by means of Attention Pooling
Federico Costa, Miquel India, Javier Hernando
State-of-the-art Deep Learning systems for speaker verification are commonly based on speaker embedding extractors. These architectures are usually composed of a feature extractor…
