Improving robustness against reverberation for automatic speech recognition
In this work, we explore the role of robust acoustic features motivated by human speech perception studies, for building ASR systems robust to reverberation effects.

Name-aware language model adaptation and sparse features for statistical machine translation
We propose approaches improving statistical machine translation (SMT) performance, by developing name-aware language model adaptations and sparse features, in addition to extracting nameaware translation grammar and rules, adding name phrase…
