ClosureBench: A Constructive Benchmark for Compositional Graph Reasoning
Stefano Goria
We introduce ClosureBench, a constructive benchmark for compositional graph-relational reasoning with programmatically verified ground truth. Unlike fixed-test-set benchmarks vulne…
Synthetic Speech, Real Signal: Paralinguistic Preservation and Cross-Lingual Augmentation via Voice Cloning
Roseline Polle, Owen Parsons, George Fairs +5
Synthetic data augmentation in speech is common practice for linguistic tasks like ASR, but has seen far less work for paralinguistic ones, especially clinical tasks where labelled…
Random-Bridges as Stochastic Transports for Generative Models
Stefano Goria, Levent A. Mengütürk, Murat C. Mengütürk +1
This paper motivates the use of random-bridges -- stochastic processes conditioned to take target distributions at fixed timepoints -- in the realm of generative modelling. Herein,…
A multimodal Bayesian Network for symptom-level depression and anxiety prediction from voice and speech data
Agnes Norbury, George Fairs, Alexandra L. Georgescu +3
During psychiatric assessment, clinicians observe not only what patients report, but important nonverbal signs such as tone, speech rate, fluency, responsiveness, and body language…
Meta-Learning Approaches for Speaker-Dependent Voice Fatigue Models
Roseline Polle, Agnes Norbury, Alexandra Livia Georgescu +2
Speaker-dependent modelling can substantially improve performance in speech-based health monitoring applications. While mixed-effect models are commonly used for such speaker adapt…
