Acoustic Model Adaptation from Raw Waveforms with Sincnet (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fainberg, J., Klejch, O., Loweimi, E., Bell, P., & Renals, S. (2019, December). Acoustic Model Adaptation from Raw Waveforms with Sincnet. Presented at 2019 IEEE Automatic Speech Recognition and Understanding Workshop (ASRU), Singapore

Raw waveform acoustic modelling has recently gained interest due to neural networks' ability to learn feature extraction, and the potential for finding better representations for a given scenario than hand-crafted features. SincNet has been proposed... Read More about Acoustic Model Adaptation from Raw Waveforms with Sincnet.

Collaborative Streaming: Trust Requirements for Price Sharing (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Grubenmann, T., Dell'Aglio, D., & Bernstein, A. (2019). Collaborative Streaming: Trust Requirements for Price Sharing. In 2019 IEEE International Conference on Big Data (Big Data). https://doi.org/10.1109/bigdata47090.2019.9005470

Stream Processing (SP) is an important Big Data technology enabling continuous querying of data streams. The stream setting offers the opportunity to exploit synergies and, theoretically, share the access and processing costs between multiple differe...

How do we feel when a robot dies? Emotions expressed on Twitter before and after hitchBOT's destruction (2019)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Fraser, K. C., Zeller, F., Smith, D. H., Mohammad, S. M., & Rudzicz, F. (2019, June). How do we feel when a robot dies? Emotions expressed on Twitter before and after hitchBOT's destruction. Presented at Workshop on Computational Approaches to Subjectivity, Sentiment and Social Media Analysis,, Minneapolis, Minnesota

In 2014, a chatty but immobile robot called hitchBOT set out to hitchhike across Canada. It similarly made its way across Germany and the Netherlands, and had begun a trip across the USA when it was destroyed by vandals. In this work, we analyze the...
