AI & Machine learning

Artificial Intelligence (AI)

Artificial intelligence (AI) deals with implementing algorithms that allow machine to perform tasks which were considered as human activity. Research areas of AI include automatic speech recognition (ASR), machine hearing, dialogue systems, auditory scene understanding related to speech and audio signal processing.

  • Machine hearing
  • Dialog systems
  • Auditory scene understanding

Machine learning

Machine learning is a type of artificial intelligence that provides computers with the ability to learn or analysis data without being explicitly programmed.

Speech/audio signal processing is a field which retrieves and classifies/estimates information from an audio signal depending on its purpose. Currently, speech/audio signal processing is a leading field which utilizes machine learning techniques.

  • Supervised learning

    - Classification
    - Regression

  • Unsupervised learning

    - Clustering
    - Dimensionality reduction

  • Reinforcement learning

AI & Machine learning for our research

Our laboratory has been researching the applications of machine learning such as HMM and SVM to speech/audio signal processing. In recent years, our research has been focused on applications and development of state-of-the-art techniques such as DNN and NMF.
