The following methods were used and compared in anomaly detection modeling: hidden Markov models (HMM), support vector machines (SVM), isolation forest (IF), and reconstruction autoencoders (AEC). They were trained exclusively on sensor signals of the intact state of structures commonly used in various industries, like aerospace and automotive. The signals obtained on artificially introduced damage states were used for performance evaluation. Anomaly assessment was evaluated and compared using various classifiers and feature analysis methods. We introduced novel methodologies for two processes. The first was the dataset preparation with anomalies. The second was the detection and damage severity assessment utilizing the intact object state exclusively. The experiments proved that robust anomaly detection is practically feasible. We were able to train accurate classifiers which had a considerable safety margin. Precise quantitative analysis of damage severity will also be possible when calibration data become available during exploitation or by using expert knowledge.

The methods described in this paper can be applied for any language. We demonstrate the methods on Upper Sorbian. The word classes model the semantic expressions of numerals, date and time of day. The implementation of the created grammars was realized in the form of finite-state-transducers (FSTs) and minimalists grammars (MGs). We practically demonstrate the usage of the FSTs in a simple smart-home speech application, that is able to set wake-up alarms and appointments expressed in a variety of spontaneous and natural sentences. While the created MGs are not integrated in an application for practical use yet, they provide evidence that MGs could potentially work more efficient than FSTs in built-on applications. In particular, MGs can work with a significantly smaller lexicon size, since their more complex structure lets them generate more expressions with less items, while still avoiding wrong expressions.

Interspeech 2021, 30 August – 3 September, 2021, Brno, Czechia N2 - We present a data-driven approach for the quantitative analysis of glottal stops before word-initial vowels in Upper Sorbian, a West Slavic minority language spoken in Germany. Glottal stops are word-boundary markers and their detection can improve the performance of automatic speech recognition and speech synthesis systems. We employed cross-language transfer using an acoustic model in German to develop a forced-alignment method for the phonetic segmentation of a read-speech corpus in Upper Sorbian. The missing phonemic units were created by combining the existing phoneme models. In the forced-alignment procedure, the glottal stops were considered optional in front of word-initial vowels. To investigate the influence of speaker type (males, females, and children) and vowel on the occurrence of glottal stops, binomial regression analysis with a generalized linear mixed model was performed. Results show that children glottalize word-initial vowels more frequently than adults, and that glottal stop occurrences are influenced by vowel quality.

Convolutional autoencoders were used to train a model on the normal operating conditions and tested on signals of different valves. The results of the model performance evaluation, as well as, the qualitative presentation of the indicator plots for each tested component, showed that the used approach is capable of detecting features that correspond to increasing component degradation. The extracted health indicators are the prerequisite and input for reliable remaining useful life prediction.
