Q: This paper proposes a deep denoising auto-encoder technique to extract better acoustic features for speech synthesis. The technique allows us to automatically extract low-dimensional features from high dimensional spectral features in a non-linear, data-driven, unsupervised way. We compared the new stochastic feature extractor with conventional mel-cepstral analysis in analysis-by-synthesis and text-to-speech experiments. Our results confirm that the proposed method increases the quality of synthetic speech in both experiments.

Q: We present a character-level recurrent neural network that generates relevant and coherent text given auxiliary information such as a sentiment or topic. Using a simple input replication strategy, we preserve the signal of auxiliary input across wider sequence intervals than can feasibly be trained by back-propagation through time. Our main results center on a large corpus of 1.5 million beer reviews from BeerAdvocate. In generative mode, our network produces reviews on command, tailored to a star rating or item category. The generative model can also run in reverse, performing classification with surprising accuracy. Performance of the reverse model provides a straightforward way to determine what the generative model knows without relying too heavily on subjective analysis. Given a review, the model can accurately determine the corresponding rating and infer the beer’s category (IPA, Stout, etc.). We exploit this capability, tracking perceived sentiment and class membership as each character in a review is processed. Quantitative and qualitative empirical evaluations demonstrate that the model captures meaning and learns nonlinear dynamics in text, such as the effect of negation on sentiment, despite possessing no a priori notion of words. Because the model operates at the character level, it handles misspellings, slang, and large vocabularies without any machinery explicitly dedicated to the purpose.

Q: This paper presents a simple end-to-end model for speech recognition, combining a convolutional network based acoustic model and a graph decoding. It is trained to output letters, with transcribed speech, without the need for force alignment of phonemes. We introduce an automatic segmentation criterion for training from sequence annotation without alignment that is on par with CTC [6] while being simpler. We show competitive results in word error rate on the Librispeech corpus [18] with MFCC features, and promising results from raw waveform.
