Multi3Generation: Multitask, Multilingual, and Multimodal Language Generation.

The article emphasizes the critical importance of language generation today, particularly focusing on three key aspects: Multitasking, Multilinguality, and Multimodality, which are pivotal for the Natural Language Generation community. It delves into the activities conducted within the Multi3Generation COST Action (CA18231) and discusses current trends and future perspectives in language generation.

Detecting Lombard Speech Using Deep Learning Approach.

Robust Lombard speech-in-noise detecting is challenging. This study proposes a strategy to detect Lombard speech using a machine learning approach for applications such as public address systems that work in near real time. The paper starts with the background concerning the Lombard effect.

Noise profiling for speech enhancement employing machine learning models.

This paper aims to propose a noise profiling method that can be performed in near real time based on machine learning (ML). To address challenges related to noise profiling effectively, we start with a critical review of the literature background. Then, we outline the experiment performed consisting of two parts.

Evaluation of aspiration problems in L2 English pronunciation employing machine learning.

The approach proposed in this study includes methods specifically dedicated to the detection of allophonic variation in English. This study aims to find an efficient method for automatic evaluation of aspiration in the case of Polish second-language (L2) English speakers' pronunciation when whole words are analyzed instead of particular allophones extracted from words. Sample words including aspirated and unaspirated allophones were prepared by experts in English phonetics and phonology.

Highlighting interlanguage phoneme differences based on similarity matrices and convolutional neural network.

The goal of this research is to find a way of highlighting the acoustic differences between consonant phonemes of the Polish and Lithuanian languages. For this purpose, similarity matrices are employed based on speech acoustic parameters combined with a convolutional neural network (CNN). In the first experiment, we compare the effectiveness of the similarity matrices applied to discerning acoustic differences between consonant phonemes of the Polish and Lithuanian languages.
