Xavier Alameda-Pineda and his co-authors from the University of Trento received the Intel best scientific paper award (INTEL BSPA), track image, speech, signal, and video processing, at the 23rd IEEE International Conference on Pattern Recognition (ICPR’16), Cancun, Mexico, 4-8 December 2016, for their paper Multi-Paced Dictionary Learning for Cross-Domain Retrieval…
MSc project on “Deep Learning for Voice Activity Detection” Duration: 6 months Short description: Voice Activity Detection (VAD) is a technique that classifies a (possibly noisy) audio signal into speech and non-speech segments. It is an essential building block for many speech-based systems, such as speech recognition and spoken dialog…
Friday, December 9, 2016,11:00 am to 12:00 pm, room F108, INRIA Montbonnot Seminar by Diego Thomas, University of Kyushu, Fukuoka, Japan Abstract: Consumer grade RGB-D cameras such as the Kinect camera or the Asus Xtion pro camera have become the commodity tool to build dense 3D models of indoor…
Tuesday, October 18, 2016, 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm, room F108, INRIA Montbonnot Seminar by Sharon Gannot, Bar Ilan University Abstract: In this work, we propose a hybrid approach for single microphone speech enhancement, merging the generative Mixture of Gaussians (MoG) model and the discriminative deep neural network (DNN). The…
M.Sc. project on “Reinforcement and Deep Learning applied to Human-Robot Dialog” Duration: 6 months (and it may continue with a PhD) Short description: The main goal of this project is to design and develop an automatic system to be exploited by a humanoid robot in multiparty Human-robot interaction (i.e. involving several…

Thursday, October 6, 2016, 10:00 am to 11:00 am, room F107, INRIA Montbonnot Seminar by Noam Shabtai, Ben Gourion University Abstract: In most hearing aids systems, microphone array signal processing algorithms may be employed in order to reduce the noise and enhance the signals that are arriving from specific directions….
Thursday, October 6, 2016, 11:00 am to 12:00 am, room F107, INRIA Montbonnot Seminar by Gabriel Skantze, KTH, Stockholm, Sweden Abstract: When humans interact and collaborate with each other, they coordinate their turn-taking behaviours using verbal and non-verbal signals, expressed in the face and voice. If robots of the future are supposed to engage in…
