This book proposes neural networks algorithms and advanced machine learning techniques for processing nonlinear dynamic signals such as audio, speech, financial signals, feedback loops, waveform generation, filtering, equalization, signals from arrays of sensors, and perturbations in the automatic control of industrial production processes. It also discusses the drastic changes in financial, economic, and work processes that are currently being experienced by the computational and engineering sciences community. Addresses key aspects, such as the integration of neural algorithms and procedures for the recognition, the analysis and detection of dynamic complex structures and the implementation of systems for discovering patterns in data, the book highlights the commonalities between computational intelligence (CI) and information and communications technologies (ICT) to promote transversal skills and sophisticated processing techniques. This book is a valuable resource for a. The academic research community b. The ICT market c. PhD students and early stage researchers d. Companies, research institutes e. Representatives from industry and standardization bodies.

The book presents research that contributes to the development of intelligent dialog systems to simplify diverse aspects of everyday life, such as medical diagnosis and entertainment. Covering major thematic areas: machine learning and artificial neural networks; algorithms and models; and social and biometric data for applications in human–computer interfaces, it discusses processing of audio-visual signals for the detection of user-perceived states, the latest scientific discoveries in processing verbal (lexicon, syntax, and pragmatics), auditory (voice, intonation, vocal expressions) and visual signals (gestures, body language, facial expressions), as well as algorithms for detecting communication disorders, remote health-status monitoring, sentiment and affect analysis, social behaviors and engagement. Further, it examines neural and machine learning algorithms for the implementation of advanced telecommunication systems, communication with people with special needs, emotion modulation by computer contents, advanced sensors for tracking changes in real-life and automatic systems, as well as the development of advanced human–computer interfaces. The book does not focus on solving a particular problem, but instead describes the results of research that has positive effects in different fields and applications.

The last meeting of the Management Committee of the COST Action 277: Nonlinear Speech Processing was held in Heraklion,Crete, Greece, September 20-23, 2005 during the Workshop on Nonlinear Speech Processing (WNSP). This was the last event of COST Action 277. The Action started in 2001. D- ing the workshop, members of the Management Committee and invited spe- ers presented overviews of their work during these four years (2001-2005) of research combining linear and nonlinear approaches for processing the speech signal. In this book, 13 contributions summarize part of this (mainly) Eu- pean e?ort in this ?eld. The aim of this book is to provide an additional and/or an alternative way to the traditional approach of linear speech processing to be used by researchers working in the domain. For all the chapters presented here, except Chaps. 4, 5, and 12, there is audiovisual material available at http://www. ics. forth. gr/wnsp05/index. html, where corresponding lectures and Power Point presentations are available by the authors. The contributions cover the following areas: 1. Speech analysis for speech synthesis, speech recognition, speech-non-speech discrimination and voice quality assessment 2. Speaker recognition/veri?cation from a natural or modi?ed speech signal 3. Speech recognition 4. Speech enhancement 5. Emotional state detection Speech Analysis Although in many speech applications the estimation of the glottal waveform is veryuseful,theestimationofthissignalisnotalwaysrobustandaccurate. Given a speech signal,the glottalwaveformmay be estimated throughinverse?ltering.
