Leveraging Urban Sounds: A Commodity Multi-Microphone Hardware Approach for Sound Recognition
(MDPI, 2019-03-08)
City noise and sound are measured and processed with the purpose of drawing appropriate government legislation and regulations, ultimately aimed at contributing to a healthier environment for humans. ...
A Pitch Marks Filtering Algorithm Based on Restricted Dynamic Programming
(Ninth International Conference on Spoken Language Processing. INTERSPEECH 2006, 2006-09-17)
In this paper, a generic pitch marks filtering algorithm (PMFA) is introduced in order to achieve reliable and smooth pitch marks
from any input pitch tracking or marking algorithm. The proposed PMFA ...
Adapting an Anomalous Noise Events Detectorfor Real-Life Operation in the Rome SuburbanPilot Area of the DYNAMAP’s Project
(Euronoise2018 Proceedings, 2018-05-27)
The DYNAMAP project is aimed at implementing a dynamic noise mapping system able to determine the acoustic impact of road infrastructures in real-time, encouraged by the European Noise Directive 2002/49/EC. ...
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 ...
High quality Spanish restricted-domain TTSoriented to a weather forecast application
(9th European Conference on Speech Communication and Technology. Interspeech'2005 - Eurospeech, 2005-09-04)
A restricted domain text-to-speech system oriented to a weatherforecast application is presented. This TTS system is embed-ded in a multimedia interactive service accessible from differ-ent media, such ...
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 ...
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 ...
Adaptación del CTH-URL para la competición Albayzin 2008
(V Jornadas en Tecnología del Habla, Bilbao, del 12-14 de noviembre 2008, 2008-11)
En esta comunicación describimos el sistema de síntesis de voz
presentado a la competición Albayzin 2008. Es un sistema que
sigue un esquema clásico de concatenación de unidades basado
en corpus. Cabe ...
Performance Analysis of the Acoustic Event Detector in the DYNAMAP’s Rome suburban area
(Proceedings of the 23rd International Congress on Acoustics, Aachen, 9 to 13 September 2019, 2019-09)
Environmental noise is increasing year after year and, besides annoyance, it causes harmful health effects on
people according to last 2018 WHO report. The Environmental Noise Directive 2002/49/EC (END) ...
