Speech is our most natural and efficient form of communication offers a strong potential to improve how we interact with machines. However, speech can sometimes be limited by environmental (e.g., ambient noise), contextual need for privacy), or health conditions laryngectomy), preventing the consideration audible speech. In this regard, silent interfaces (SSI) have been proposed as an alternative, considering technologies that do not require production acoustic signals electromyography...
Data-driven methods—particularly machine learning techniques—are expected to play a key role in the headway of Industry 4.0. One increasingly popular application this context is when anomaly detection employed test manufactured goods assembly lines. In work, we compare supervised, semi/weakly-supervised, and unsupervised strategies detect anomalous sequences video samples which may be indicative defective televisions assembled factory. We 3D autoencoders, convolutional neural networks,...
