In this area, you will find the courses. Each course guides you through a carefully selected collection of video lecture clips, blog posts and discussion forums on this site, along with readings and external material. There are also practical exercises to help you understand the material.
Users with an account on the site have access to additional forums for the practical exercises, and the ability to post on all forums. Accounts are generally only offered to my own students at the University of Edinburgh.
Foundations for Speech Processing
Because Speech Processing is for students from many different backgrounds, the chances are that you will have a few gaps in your background knowledge. Here is some help in filling those gaps.
Speech Processing
From the foundations of speech signals and phonetics, to text-to-speech synthesis and automatic speech recognition.
Speech Synthesis
Following on from the introductory material in Speech Processing, we move on to more sophisticated ways to generate the waveform, from unit selection to statistical parametric models. We also cover some more advanced speech signal processing.
Prepare for study in speech and language processing
Unlike the other courses, this one mostly contains external material to help you prepare for study in the exciting area of speech and language processing.
This is the new version. Still under construction.
