(48th International Congress and Exposition on Noise Control Engineering. Internoise 2019, 2019-06-16)
The DYNAMAP LIFE project proposes the implementation of a dynamic noisemapping system able to determine the acoustic impact of road infrastructures inreal-time, following the European ...
Initial verification of Dynamic Acoustic Mappingalong the motorway surrounding the city of Rome
(47th International Congress and Exposition on Noise Control Engineering. INTERNOISE 2018, 2018-08-26)
DYNAMAP (Dynamic Acoustic Mapping) is a EU LIFE project which aims at developing a dynamic noise mapping system in urban areas (Milan city) and along the motorway A90 surrounding the city ...
Impact of Individual Anomalous Noise Events on the Monitoring of Traffic Noise in Urban Areas
(Euronoise 2018 Proceedings, 2018-05-27)
At least one million healthy life years are lost every year from traffic-related noise in the western part of Europe according to the World Health Organization. Other diseases have been linked with ...
Detection of Anomalous Noise Events for Real-Time Road-Traffic Noise Mapping: The Dynamap's project case study
(De Gruyter, 2018-06)
Environmental noise is increasing year after year, especially in urban and suburban areas. Besides annoyance, environmental noise also causes harmful health effects on people. The Environmental Noise ...
Unified numerical simulation of the physics of voice. The EUNISON project
(8th ISCA Speech Synthesis Workshop 2013, 2013-08-31)
In this demo we will briefly outline the scope of the european EUNISON project, which aims at a unified numerical simulation of the physics of voice by resorting to supercomputer fa-cilities, and present ...
Anomalous Noise Events Considerations for the Computation of Road Traffic Noise Levels: The Dynamap's Milan Case Study
(24th International Congress on Sound and Vibration 2017, 2017-07-23)
Dynamic noise maps are computed to represent the noise levels generated by road traffic in realtime to determine the population exposure to environmental noise. To this aim, a network ofacoustic ...
A Hybrid Method Oriented to Concatenative Text-to-Speech Synthesis
(8th European Conference on Speech Communication and Technology. EUROSPEECH 2003 - INTERSPEECH 2003, 2003-09-01)
In this paper we present a speech synthesis method for diphonebased text-to-speech systems. Its main goal is to achieve
prosodic modifications that result in more natural-sounding synthetic speech. This ...
Detecting Anomalous Noise Events on Low-Capacity Acoustic Sensor in Dynamic Road Traffic Noise Mapping
(4th International Electronic Conference on Sensors and Applications, 2017-11-13)
One of the main aspects affecting the life of people living in urban and suburban areas is their continued exposure to high road traffic noise (RTN) levels, traditionally measured by specialists working ...
Multi-domain text classification for unit selectionText-to-Speech synthesis
(15th International Congress of Phonetic Sciences (ICPhS-15), 2003-08-03)
This paper presents a new approach for designing aconcatenative text-to-speech (TTS) system based onmulti-domain unit selection. The method achievesgood synthetic quality with reasonable ...
