IEEE Transactions on Audio, Speech, and Language…
1 September 2007

We present an approach, based on popular acoustic beamforming techniques, to obtain a single enhanced signal and speaker-position information from a number of microphones. Expand

The ICSI RT07s Speaker Diarization System

Chuck Wooters, M. Huijbregts
Computer Science, Engineering
CLEAR
2007

In this paper, we present the ICSI speaker diarization system. This system was used in the 2007 National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) Rich Transcription evaluation. The ICSI system… Expand

A robust speaker clustering algorithm

IEEE Workshop on Automatic Speech Recognition and…
30 November 2003

We present a novel speaker segmentation and clustering algorithm with the following advantages: no threshold adjustment requirements; no need for training/development data; and robustness to different data conditions. Expand

Stochastic pronunciation modelling from hand-labelled phonetic corpora

Art, Computer Science
Speech Commun.
1 November 1999

In the early 1990s, the availability of the TIMIT read-speech phonetically transcribed corpus led to work at AT&T on the automatic inference of pronunciation variation. Expand

Building a Large Lexical Databank Which Provides Deep Semantics

C. Fillmore, Chuck Wooters, Collin F. Baker
Computer Science
PACLIC
2001

This paper reports on the design of a lexical database for English which is currently under construction ("FrameNet-2" ), and describes the kinds of linguistic facts that the database is intended to make available. Expand

TOWARDS ROBUST SPEAKER SEGMENTATION: THE ICSI-SRI FALL 2004 DIARIZATION SYSTEM

Chuck Wooters, J. Fung, Barbara Peskin, X. Anguera
Computer Science
2004

We describe the ICSI-SRI entry in the Fall 2004 DARPA EARS Metadata Evaluation, an agglomerative clustering system that uses a BIC-like measure to determine when to stop merging clusters and to decide which pairs of clusters to merge. Expand

Speech Recognition for Illiterate Access to Information and Technology

Computer Science
2004

This paper provides a progress report on ICSI s Meeting Project, including both the data collected and annotated as part of the pro-ject, as well as the research lines such materials support. Expand

Speaker Diarization For Multiple-Distant-Microphone Meetings Using Several Sources of Information

J. Pardo, Xavier Anguera Miró, Chuck Wooters
Computer Science
IEEE Transactions on Computers
1 September 2007

We analyze the correlation between signals coming from multiple microphones and propose an improved method for carrying out speaker diarization for meetings with multiple distant microphones. Expand
