Tuesday, November 26, 2013, 10:00 to 10:45, Grand Amphi, INRIA Montbonnot PhD public defense by Antoine Deleforge, Perception Team, INRIA Montbonnot Abstract: In this thesis, we address the long-studied problem of binaural (two microphones) sound source separation and localization through supervised learning. To achieve this, we develop a new paradigm…
Tuesday, November 26, 2013, 14:30 to 15:30, Grand Amphithéatre, INRIA Montbonnot Seminar by Geoff McLachlan, Department of Mathematics, University of Queensland, Australia Abstract. Non-normal mixture distributions have received increasing attention in recent years. Finite mixtures of multivariate skew symmetric distributions, in particular, the skew normal and skew $t$-mixture models, are emerging…
Wednesday, November 13, 2013, 14:00 to 15:00, room F107, INRIA Montbonnot Seminar by Simon Barthelmé, Université de Genève Abstract. Visual processing is fraught with uncertainty: the brain’s visual system must attempt to estimate physical properties despite missing information and noisy mechanisms. Sometimes high visual uncertainty translates into lack of confidence…
Tuesday, October 15, 2013, 10:00 to 10:45, Grand Amphi, INRIA Montbonnot PhD public defense by Xavier Alameda-Pineda, Perception Team, INRIA Montbonnot Abstract. Along the past two decades, the industry has developed several commercial products with audio-visual sensingcapabilities. Most of them consists on a videocamera with an embedded microphone (mobile phones, tablets,…
Tuesday, October 15, 2013, 2:00 to 3:00, room C207, INRIA Montbonnot by Josep Ramon Casas, Technical University of Catalonia (UPC), Barcelona Abstract. Television, a telecommunication medium for the transmission of moving images and sound (cf.wikipedia). It substantiates the “far sight” concept of its mixed Greek-Latin etymology. But this definition may be misleading….
Tuesday, September 24, 2013, 4:00 to 5:00, room F107, INRIA Montbonnot by Sharon Gannot, Bar-Ilan University, Israel Abstract. A major challenge in modern acoustic communication systems is the acquisition of a sound of interest. In the last decade, the use of multiple microphones has shown to provide significant advantages compared to…
