    SNR-Based Teachers-Student Technique for Speech Enhancement

    Full text link
    It is very challenging for speech enhancement methods to achieves robust performance under both high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and low SNR simultaneously. In this paper, we propose a method that integrates an SNR-based teachers-student technique and time-domain U-Net to deal with this problem. Specifically, this method consists of multiple teacher models and a student model. We first train the teacher models under multiple small-range SNRs that do not coincide with each other so that they can perform speech enhancement well within the specific SNR range. Then, we choose different teacher models to supervise the training of the student model according to the SNR of the training data. Eventually, the student model can perform speech enhancement under both high SNR and low SNR. To evaluate the proposed method, we constructed a dataset with an SNR ranging from -20dB to 20dB based on the public dataset. We experimentally analyzed the effectiveness of the SNR-based teachers-student technique and compared the proposed method with several state-of-the-art methods.Comment: Published in 2020 IEEE International Conference on Multimedia and Expo (ICME 2020

    XXVI IUPAP Conference on Computational Physics (CCP2014)

    The 26th IUPAP Conference on Computational Physics, CCP2014, was held in Boston, Massachusetts, during August 11-14, 2014. Almost 400 participants from 38 countries convened at the George Sherman Union at Boston University for four days of plenary and parallel sessions spanning a broad range of topics in computational physics and related areas. The first meeting in the series that developed into the annual Conference on Computational Physics (CCP) was held in 1989, also on the campus of Boston University and chaired by our colleague Claudio Rebbi. The express purpose of that meeting was to discuss the progress, opportunities and challenges of common interest to physicists engaged in computational research. The conference having returned to the site of its inception, it is interesting to recect on the development of the field during the intervening years. Though 25 years is a short time for mankind, computational physics has taken giant leaps during these years, not only because of the enormous increases in computer power but especially because of the development of new methods and algorithms, and the growing awareness of the opportunities the new technologies and methods can offer. Computational physics now represents a ''third leg'' of research alongside analytical theory and experiments in almost all subfields of physics, and because of this there is also increasing specialization within the community of computational physicists. It is therefore a challenge to organize a meeting such as CCP, which must have suffcient depth in different areas to hold the interest of experts while at the same time being broad and accessible. Still, at a time when computational research continues to gain in importance, the CCP series is critical in the way it fosters cross-fertilization among fields, with many participants specifically attending in order to get exposure to new methods in fields outside their own. As organizers and editors of these Proceedings, we are very pleased with the high quality of the papers provided by the participants. These articles represent a good cross-section of what was presented at the meeting, and it is our hope that they will not only be useful individually for their specific scientific content but will also represent a historical snapshot of the state of computational physics that they represent collectively. The remainder of this Preface contains lists detailing the organizational structure of CCP2014, endorsers and sponsors of the meeting, plenary and invited talks, and a presentation of the 2014 IUPAP C20 Young Scientist Prize. We would like to take the opportunity to again thank all those who contributed to the success of CCP214, as organizers, sponsors, presenters, exhibitors, and participants.

    Research on the Cultivation Mechanism of Huxiang Red Culture under the Perspective of “three Comprehensive Education”

    Get PDF
    Hunan red culture is an important part of Chinese revolutionary culture and a valuable spiritual wealth in Hunan. It carries the heroic deeds and valuable qualities of Hunan revolutionary martyrs and has a unique nurturing value, which is an important material and content for the ideological education of colleges and universities. In order to give full play to the nurturing value of Hunan culture in the field of “three-wide nurturing” and to promote the innovation of nurturing mode and mechanism in colleges and universities, this paper elaborates the concept of Hunan red culture and “three-wide nurturing”, as well as the relationship between Hunan red culture and “three-wide nurturing”. The paper also further discusses the consensus, clear objectives, and promote the synergy among all education subjects to realize the “whole staff” education; connect the growth of students to inherit the genes of Hunan culture to realize the “whole process” education. The mechanism of nurturing people with Hu Xiang red culture is explored in three levels: integrating Hu Xiang culture nurturing resources and enriching nurturing carriers to realize “all-round” nurturing people, promoting Hu Xiang red culture and the “three whole nurturing people” system in colleges and universities, and building a system of “three whole nurturing people”. It also explores the mechanism of educating people with Hunan red culture in three levels, and promotes the “three-wide education” system of education between Hunan red culture and colleges and universities to build a “big thinking and government” pattern
