  text: 'Deep attractor networks (DANs) are a recently introduced method to blindly
    separate sources from spectral features of a monaural recording using bidirectional
    long short-term memory networks (BLSTMs). Due to the nature of BLSTMs, this is
    inherently not online-ready and resorting to operating on blocks yields a block
    permutation problem in that the index of each speaker may change between blocks.
    We here propose the joint modeling of spatial and spectral features to solve the
    block permutation problem and generalize DANs to multi-channel meeting recordings:
    The DAN acts as a spectral feature extractor for a subsequent model-based clustering
    approach. We first analyze different joint models in batch-processing scenarios
    and finally propose a block-online blind source separation algorithm. The efficacy
    of the proposed models is demonstrated on reverberant mixtures corrupted by real
    recordings of multi-channel background noise. We demonstrate that both the proposed
    batch-processing and the proposed block-online system outperform (a) a spatial-only
    model with a state-of-the-art frequency permutation solver and (b) a spectral-only
    model with an oracle block permutation solver in terms of signal to distortion
    ratio (SDR) gains.'

  text: This work examines acoustic beamformers employing neural networks (NNs) for
    mask prediction as front-end for automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems for
    practical scenarios like voice-enabled home devices. To test the versatility of
    the mask predicting network, the system is evaluated with different recording
    hardware, different microphone array designs, and different acoustic models of
    the downstream ASR system. Significant gains in recognition accuracy are obtained
    in all configurations despite the fact that the NN had been trained on mismatched
    data. Unlike previous work, the NN is trained on a feature level objective, which
    gives some performance advantage over a mask related criterion. Furthermore, different
    approaches for realizing online, or adaptive, NN-based beamforming are explored,
    where the online algorithms still show significant gains compared to the baseline
    performance.

  text: This contribution presents a speech enhancement system for the CHiME-5 Dinner
    Party Scenario. The front-end employs multi-channel linear time-variant filtering
    and achieves its gains without the use of a neural network. We present an adaptation
    of blind source separation techniques to the CHiME-5 database which we call Guided
    Source Separation (GSS). Using the baseline acoustic and language model, the combination
    of Weighted Prediction Error based dereverberation, guided source separation,
    and beamforming reduces the WER by 10:54% (relative) for the single array track
    and by 21:12% (relative) on the multiple array track.

  text: In this paper, we present a neural network based classification algorithm
    for the discrimination of moving from stationary targets in the sight of an automotive
    radar sensor. Compared to existing algorithms, the proposed algorithm can take
    into account multiple local radar targets instead of performing classification
    inference on each target individually resulting in superior discrimination accuracy,
    especially suitable for non rigid objects, like pedestrians, which in general
    have a wide velocity spread when multiple targets are detected.

  text: The invention of the Variational Autoencoder enables the application of Neural
    Networks to a wide range of tasks in unsupervised learning, including the field
    of Acoustic Unit Discovery (AUD). The recently proposed Hidden Markov Model Variational
    Autoencoder (HMMVAE) allows a joint training of a neural network based feature
    extractor and a structured prior for the latent space given by a Hidden Markov
    Model. It has been shown that the HMMVAE significantly outperforms pure GMM-HMM
    based systems on the AUD task. However, the HMMVAE cannot autonomously infer the
    number of acoustic units and thus relies on the GMM-HMM system for initialization.
    This paper introduces the Bayesian Hidden Markov Model Variational Autoencoder
    (BHMMVAE) which solves these issues by embedding the HMMVAE in a Bayesian framework
    with a Dirichlet Process Prior for the distribution of the acoustic units, and
    diagonal or full-covariance Gaussians as emission distributions. Experiments on
    TIMIT and Xitsonga show that the BHMMVAE is able to autonomously infer a reasonable
    number of acoustic units, can be initialized without supervision by a GMM-HMM
    system, achieves computationally efficient stochastic variational inference by
    using natural gradient descent, and, additionally, improves the AUD performance
    over the HMMVAE.

  text: Distributed sensor data acquisition usually encompasses data sampling by the
    individual devices, where each of them has its own oscillator driving the local
    sampling process, resulting in slightly different sampling rates at the individual
    sensor nodes. Nevertheless, for certain downstream signal processing tasks it
    is important to compensate even for small sampling rate offsets. Aligning the
    sampling rates of oscillators which differ only by a few parts-per-million, is,
    however, challenging and quite different from traditional multirate signal processing
    tasks. In this paper we propose to transfer a precise but computationally demanding
    time domain approach, inspired by the Nyquist-Shannon sampling theorem, to an
    efficient frequency domain implementation. To this end a buffer control is employed
    which compensates for sampling offsets which are multiples of the sampling period,
    while a digital filter, realized by the wellknown Overlap-Save method, handles
    the fractional part of the sampling phase offset. With experiments on artificially
    misaligned data we investigate the parametrization, the efficiency, and the induced
    distortions of the proposed resampling method. It is shown that a favorable compromise
    between residual distortion and computational complexity is achieved, compared
    to other sampling rate offset compensation techniques.

  text: This paper describes the systems for the single-array track and the multiple-array
    track of the 5th CHiME Challenge. The final system is a combination of multiple
    systems, using Confusion Network Combination (CNC). The different systems presented
    here are utilizing different front-ends and training sets for a Bidirectional
    Long Short-Term Memory (BLSTM) Acoustic Model (AM). The front-end was replaced
    by enhancements provided by Paderborn University [1]. The back-end has been implemented
    using RASR [2] and RETURNN [3]. Additionally, a system combination including the
    hypothesis word graphs from the system of the submission [1] has been performed,
    which results in the final best system.

  text: Due to their distributed nature wireless acoustic sensor networks offer great
    potential for improved signal acquisition, processing and classification for applications
    such as monitoring and surveillance, home automation, or hands-free telecommunication.
    To reduce the communication demand with a central server and to raise the privacy
    level it is desirable to perform processing at node level. The limited processing
    and memory capabilities on a sensor node, however, stand in contrast to the compute
    and memory intensive deep learning algorithms used in modern speech and audio
    processing. In this work, we perform benchmarking of commonly used convolutional
    and recurrent neural network architectures on a Raspberry Pi based acoustic sensor
    node. We show that it is possible to run medium-sized neural network topologies
    used for speech enhancement and speech recognition in real time. For acoustic
    event recognition, where predictions in a lower temporal resolution are sufficient,
    it is even possible to run current state-of-the-art deep convolutional models
    with a real-time-factor of 0:11.

  text: It has been experimentally verified that sampling rate offsets (SROs) between
    the input channels of an acoustic beamformer have a detrimental effect on the
    achievable SNR gains. In this paper we derive an analytic model to study the impact
    of SRO on the estimation of the spatial noise covariance matrix used in MVDR beamforming.
    It is shown that a perfect compensation of the SRO is impossible if the noise
    covariance matrix is estimated by time averaging, even if the SRO is perfectly
    known. The SRO should therefore be compensated for prior to beamformer coefficient
    estimation. We present a novel scheme where SRO compensation and beamforming closely
    interact, saving some computational effort compared to separate SRO adjustment
    followed by acoustic beamforming.

  text: In this work, we address the limited availability of large annotated databases
    for real-life audio event detection by utilizing the concept of transfer learning.
    This technique aims to transfer knowledge from a source domain to a target domain,
    even if source and target have different feature distributions and label sets.
    We hypothesize that all acoustic events share the same inventory of basic acoustic
    building blocks and differ only in the temporal order of these acoustic units.
    We then construct a deep neural network with convolutional layers for extracting
    the acoustic units and a recurrent layer for capturing the temporal order. Under
    the above hypothesis, transfer learning from a source to a target domain with
    a different acoustic event inventory is realized by transferring the convolutional
    layers from the source to the target domain. The recurrent layer is, however,
    learnt directly from the target domain. Experiments on the transfer from a synthetic
    source database to the reallife target database of DCASE 2016 demonstrate that
    transfer learning leads to improved detection performance on average. However,
    the successful transfer to detect events which are very different from what was
    seen in the source domain, could not be verified.

  text: This report describes the computation of gradients by algorithmic differentiation
    for statistically optimum beamforming operations. Especially the derivation of
    complex-valued functions is a key component of this approach. Therefore the real-valued
    algorithmic differentiation is extended via the complex-valued chain rule. In
    addition to the basic mathematic operations the derivative of the eigenvalue problem
    with complex-valued eigenvectors is one of the key results of this report. The
    potential of this approach is shown with experimental results on the CHiME-3 challenge
    database. There, the beamforming task is used as a front-end for an ASR system.
    With the developed derivatives a joint optimization of a speech enhancement and
    speech recognition system w.r.t. the recognition optimization criterion is possible.

  text: In this paper we show how a neural network for spectral mask estimation for
    an acoustic beamformer can be optimized by algorithmic differentiation. Using
    the beamformer output SNR as the objective function to maximize, the gradient
    is propagated through the beamformer all the way to the neural network which provides
    the clean speech and noise masks from which the beamformer coefficients are estimated
    by eigenvalue decomposition. A key theoretical result is the derivative of an
    eigenvalue problem involving complex-valued eigenvectors. Experimental results
    on the CHiME-3 challenge database demonstrate the effectiveness of the approach.
    The tools developed in this paper are a key component for an end-to-end optimization
    of speech enhancement and speech recognition.

  text: The benefits of both a logarithmic spectral amplitude (LSA) estimation and
    a modeling in a generalized spectral domain (where short-time amplitudes are raised
    to a generalized power exponent, not restricted to magnitude or power spectrum)
    are combined in this contribution to achieve a better tradeoff between speech
    quality and noise suppression in single-channel speech enhancement. A novel gain
    function is derived to enhance the logarithmic generalized spectral amplitudes
    of noisy speech. Experiments on the CHiME-3 dataset show that it outperforms the
    famous minimum mean squared error (MMSE) LSA gain function of Ephraim and Malah
    in terms of noise suppression by 1.4 dB, while the good speech quality of the
    MMSE-LSA estimator is maintained.

  text: Recent advances in discriminatively trained mask estimation networks to extract
    a single source utilizing beamforming techniques demonstrate, that the integration
    of statistical models and deep neural networks (DNNs) are a promising approach
    for robust automatic speech recognition (ASR) applications. In this contribution
    we demonstrate how discriminatively trained embeddings on spectral features can
    be tightly integrated into statistical model-based source separation to separate
    and transcribe overlapping speech. Good generalization to unseen spatial configurations
    is achieved by estimating a statistical model at test time, while still leveraging
    discriminative training of deep clustering embeddings on a separate training set.
    We formulate an expectation maximization (EM) algorithm which jointly estimates
    a model for deep clustering embeddings and complex-valued spatial observations
    in the short time Fourier transform (STFT) domain at test time. Extensive simulations
    confirm, that the integrated model outperforms (a) a deep clustering model with
    a subsequent beamforming step and (b) an EM-based model with a beamforming step
    alone in terms of signal to distortion ratio (SDR) and perceptually motivated
    metric (PESQ) gains. ASR results on a reverberated dataset further show, that
    the aforementioned gains translate to reduced word error rates (WERs) even in
    reverberant environments.

  text: 'In this contribution we show how to exploit text data to support word discovery
    from audio input in an underresourced target language. Given audio, of which a
    certain amount is transcribed at the word level, and additional unrelated text
    data, the approach is able to learn a probabilistic mapping from acoustic units
    to characters and utilize it to segment the audio data into words without the
    need of a pronunciation dictionary. This is achieved by three components: an unsupervised
    acoustic unit discovery system, a supervisedly trained acoustic unit-to-grapheme
    converter, and a word discovery system, which is initialized with a language model
    trained on the text data. Experiments for multiple setups show that the initialization
    of the language model with text data improves the word segementation performance
    by a large margin.'

  text: This paper presents an end-to-end training approach for a beamformer-supported
    multi-channel ASR system. A neural network which estimates masks for a statistically
    optimum beamformer is jointly trained with a network for acoustic modeling. To
    update its parameters, we propagate the gradients from the acoustic model all
    the way through feature extraction and the complex valued beamforming operation.
    Besides avoiding a mismatch between the front-end and the back-end, this approach
    also eliminates the need for stereo data, i.e., the parallel availability of clean
    and noisy versions of the signals. Instead, it can be trained with real noisy
    multichannel data only. Also, relying on the signal statistics for beamforming,
    the approach makes no assumptions on the configuration of the microphone array.
    We further observe a performance gain through joint training in terms of word
    error rate in an evaluation of the system on the CHiME 4 dataset.

  text: 'Acoustic beamforming can greatly improve the performance of Automatic Speech
    Recognition (ASR) and speech enhancement systems when multiple channels are available.
    We recently proposed a way to support the model-based Generalized Eigenvalue beamforming
    operation with a powerful neural network for spectral mask estimation. The enhancement
    system has a number of desirable properties. In particular, neither assumptions
    need to be made about the nature of the acoustic transfer function (e.g., being
    anechonic), nor does the array configuration need to be known. While the system
    has been originally developed to enhance speech in noisy environments, we show
    in this article that it is also effective in suppressing reverberation, thus leading
    to a generic trainable multi-channel speech enhancement system for robust speech
    processing. To support this claim, we consider two distinct datasets: The CHiME
    3 challenge, which features challenging real-world noise distortions, and the
    Reverb challenge, which focuses on distortions caused by reverberation. We evaluate
    the system both with respect to a speech enhancement and a recognition task. For
    the first task we propose a new way to cope with the distortions introduced by
    the Generalized Eigenvalue beamformer by renormalizing the target energy for each
    frequency bin, and measure its effectiveness in terms of the PESQ score. For the
    latter we feed the enhanced signal to a strong DNN back-end and achieve state-of-the-art
    ASR results on both datasets. We further experiment with different network architectures
    for spectral mask estimation: One small feed-forward network with only one hidden
    layer, one Convolutional Neural Network and one bi-directional Long Short-Term
    Memory network, showing that even a small network is capable of delivering significant
    performance improvements.'

  text: In this paper, we apply a high-resolution approach, i.e. the matrix pencil
    method (MPM), to the FMCW automotive radar system to separate the neighboring
    targets, which share similar parameters, i.e. range, relative speed and azimuth
    angle, and cause overlapping in the radar spectrum. In order to adapt the 1D model
    of MPM to the 2D range-velocity spectrum and simultaneously limit the computational
    cost, some preprocessing steps are proposed to construct a novel separation algorithm.
    Finally, this algorithm is evaluated in both simulation and real data, and the
    results indicate a promising performance.

  text: In this paper, we present a hypothesis test for the classification of moving
    targets in the sight of an automotive radar sensor. For this purpose, a statistical
    model of the relative velocity between a stationary target and the radar sensor
    has been developed. With respect to the statistical properties a confidence interval
    is calculated and targets with relative velocity lying outside this interval are
    classified as moving targets. Compared to existing algorithms our approach is
    able to give robust classification independent of the number of observed moving
    targets and is characterized by an instantaneous classification, a simple parameterization
    of the model and an automatic calculation of the discriminating threshold.
