Interreg Allegro
-
Project title: Adaptive Language LEarning technology for the Greater Region
-
Abstract: Allegro is an Interreg project (in cooperation with the Department of COmputational LInguistics and Phonetics of the Saarland University and Supélec Metz) which started in April 2010. It is intended to develop software for foreign language learning. Our contribution consists of developing tools to help learners to master the prosody of a foreign language, i.e. the prosody of English by French learners, and then prosody of French by German learners. We started by recording (with the project Intonale) and segmenting of a corpus made up of English sentences uttered by French speakers and we analyzed specific problems encountered by French speakers when speaking English. The corrections were implemented in Jsnoori. The final review was held on May 15 in Saarbrücken.
Eureka - Eurostars i3DMusic
Besides the above contracts of which PAROLE is officially part, E. Vincent is responsible for his former team (PANAMA) of the following project.
-
Project title: Real-time Interactive 3D Rendering of Musical Recordings
-
Abstract: The i3DMusic project aims to enable real-time interactive respatialization of mono or stereo music content. This will be achieved through the combination of source separation and 3D audio rendering techniques. PANAMA is responsible for the source separation work package, more precisely for designing scalable online source separation algorithms and estimating advanced spatial parameters from the available mixture.
