In this paper we dissect the gains of the time-domain audio separation network (TasNet) approach by gradually replacing components of an utterance-level permutation invariant training (u-PIT) based separation system in the frequency domain until the TasNet system is reached, thus blending components of frequency domain approaches with those of time domain approaches. Some of the intermediate variants achieve comparable signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR) gains to TasNet, but retain the advantage of frequency domain processing: compatibility with classic signal processing tools such as frequency-domain beamforming and the human interpretability of the masks. Furthermore, we show that the scale invariant signal-to-distortion ratio (si-SDR) criterion used as loss function in TasNet is related to a logarithmic mean square error criterion and that it is this criterion which contributes most reliable to the performance advantage of TasNet. Finally, we critically assess which gains in a noise-free single channel environment generalize to more realistic reverberant conditions."}],"publication":"ICASSP 2020 Virtual Barcelona Spain","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"keyword":["voice activity detection","speech activity detection","neural network","statistical speech processing"],"ddc":["000"],"year":"2020","quality_controlled":"1","title":"Demystifying TasNet: A Dissecting Approach","date_created":"2020-11-25T14:56:53Z"},{"citation":{"bibtex":"@inproceedings{Heitkaemper_Schmalenstroeer_Haeb-Umbach_2020, title={Statistical and Neural Network Based Speech Activity Detection in Non-Stationary Acoustic Environments}, booktitle={INTERSPEECH 2020 Virtual Shanghai China}, author={Heitkaemper, Jens and Schmalenstroeer, Joerg and Haeb-Umbach, Reinhold}, year={2020} }","mla":"Heitkaemper, Jens, et al. “Statistical and Neural Network Based Speech Activity Detection in Non-Stationary Acoustic Environments.” <i>INTERSPEECH 2020 Virtual Shanghai China</i>, 2020.","short":"J.

We propose two approaches to SAD, where one is based on statistical signal processing, while the other utilizes neural networks. The former employs sophisticated signal processing to track the noise and speech energies and is meant to support the case for a resource efficient, unsupervised signal processing approach.\r\nThe latter introduces a recurrent network layer that operates on short segments of the input speech to do temporal smoothing in the presence of non-stationary noise. The systems are tested on the Fearless Steps challenge database, which consists of the transmission data from the Apollo-11 space mission.\r\nThe statistical SAD  achieves comparable detection performance to earlier proposed neural network based SADs, while the neural network based approach leads to a decision cost function of 1.07% on the evaluation set of the 2020 Fearless Steps Challenge, which sets a new state of the art.","lang":"eng"}],"publication":"INTERSPEECH 2020 Virtual Shanghai China","type":"conference","language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"file_date_updated":"2020-12-11T12:33:04Z","keyword":["voice activity detection","speech activity detection","neural network","statistical speech processing"],"ddc":["000"],"department":[{"_id":"54"}],"user_id":"460","_id":"20505","project":[{"name":"Computing Resources Provided by the Paderborn Center for Parallel Computing","_id":"52"}]},{"year":"2018","date_created":"2022-06-24T14:41:20Z","publisher":"Elsevier BV","title":"Reconsidering interiorization: Self moving across language spacetimes","publication":"New Ideas in Psychology","abstract":[{"lang":"eng","text":"Sociogenesis addresses a pervasive problem in psychology given by Cartesian dualism that assigns the mental an inner locus apart from material activity. Aligning ourselves to the ongoing critical discussions of interiorization in psychology, we explore the crucial notion of space by highlighting language as sociocultural and dialogical activity performed by other-oriented individuals. We discuss space in terms of the “language spacetime”, a symbolic, embodied formation of mutually positioned speaking and listening selves. This leads beyond the “inside-outside” container metaphor and allows for a reformulation of interiorization. Interiorization is conceptualized as a continuous series of different, though mutually related movements between self and other and self and self that lead to and are supported by specific formations in language activity: reversion, transposition, and decoupling. Along a short passage of a video-based interview, we trace the reversion of dialogical positions within the addressivity constellation of the two interlocutors, their interactive creation of a heterotopic spacetime, and the decoupling of one speaker's psychological activity from the concrete here-and-now and the present other by moving and acting into this new sphere. Interiorization appears as a movement at the border of past, present, and possible future(s)."}],"language":[{"iso":"eng"}],"keyword":["Interiorization","Dialogical self","Language activity","Voice","Vygotsky","Heterotopia","Video-confrontation"],"publication_identifier":{"issn":["0732-118X"]},"publication_status":"published","page":"7-17","intvolume":"        49","citation":{"apa":"Bertau, M.-C., &#38; Karsten, A.

The conditional independence assumption, prevalent in hidden Markov model-based ASR, is relaxed to obtain a clean speech posterior that is conditioned on the complete observed feature vector sequence. This is a more informative posterior than one conditioned only on the current observation. The novel decoding is used to obtain a transmission-error robust remote ASR system, where the speech capturing unit is connected to the decoder via an error-prone communication network.
