The INTERSPEECH 2017 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge: Addressee, Cold & Snoring
نویسندگان
چکیده
The INTERSPEECH 2017 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge addresses three different problems for the first time in research competition under well-defined conditions: In the Addressee sub-challenge, it has to be determined whether speech produced by an adult is directed towards another adult or towards a child; in the Cold sub-challenge, speech under cold has to be told apart from ‘healthy’ speech; and in the Snoring sub-challenge, four different types of snoring have to be classified. In this paper, we describe these sub-challenges, their conditions, and the baseline feature extraction and classifiers, which include data-learnt feature representations by end-to-end learning with convolutional and recurrent neural networks, and bag-of-audio-words for the first time in the challenge series.

Exploring Fusion Methods and Feature Space for the Classification of Paralinguistic Information
This paper introduces the different systems developed by Aholab Signal Processing Laboratory for The INTERSPEECH 2017 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge, which includes three different subtasks: Addressee, Cold and Snoring classification. Several classification strategies and features related with the spectrum, prosody and phase have been tested separately and further combined by using dif...
متن کاملIntroducing Weighted Kernel Classifiers for Handling Imbalanced Paralinguistic Corpora: Snoring, Addressee and Cold
The field of paralinguistics is growing rapidly with a wide range of applications that go beyond recognition of emotions, laughter and personality. The research flourishes in multiple directions such as signal representation and classification, addressing the issues of the domain. Apart from the noise robustness, an important issue with real life data is the imbalanced nature: some classes of s...
متن کاملIt Sounds Like You Have a Cold! Testing Voice Features for the Interspeech 2017 Computational Paralinguistics Cold Challenge
This paper describes an evaluation of four different voice feature sets for detecting symptoms of the common cold in speech as part of the Interspeech 2017 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge. The challenge corpus consists of 630 speakers in three partitions, of which approximately one third had a “severe” cold at the time of recording. Success on the task is measured in terms of unweighted...
متن کاملEnd-to-End Deep Learning Framework for Speech Paralinguistics Detection Based on Perception Aware Spectrum
In this paper, we propose an end-to-end deep learning framework to detect speech paralinguistics using perception aware spectrum as input. Existing studies show that speech under cold has distinct variations of energy distribution on low frequency components compared with the speech under ‘healthy’ condition. This motivates us to use perception aware spectrum as the input to an end-to-end learn...
