Cross-lingual topic prediction for speech using translations
Sameer Bansal, Herman Kamper, Adam Lopez +1
Given a large amount of unannotated speech in a low-resource language, can we classify the speech utterances by topic? We consider this question in the setting where a small amount…
Semantic query-by-example speech search using visual grounding
Herman Kamper, Aristotelis Anastassiou, Karen Livescu
A number of recent studies have started to investigate how speech systems can be trained on untranscribed speech by leveraging accompanying images at training time. Examples of tas…
On the Contributions of Visual and Textual Supervision in Low-Resource Semantic Speech Retrieval
Ankita Pasad, Bowen Shi, Herman Kamper +1
Recent work has shown that speech paired with images can be used to learn semantically meaningful speech representations even without any textual supervision. In real-world low-res…
Unsupervised acoustic unit discovery for speech synthesis using discrete latent-variable neural networks
Ryan Eloff, André Nortje, Benjamin van Niekerk +7
For our submission to the ZeroSpeech 2019 challenge, we apply discrete latent-variable neural networks to unlabelled speech and use the discovered units for speech synthesis. Unsup…
