论文摘要
储层计算是预测湍流的有力工具，其简单的架构具有处理大型系统的计算效率。然而，其实现通常需要完整的状态向量测量和系统非线性知识。我们使用非线性投影函数将系统测量扩展到高维空间，然后将其输入到储层中以获得预测。我们展示了这种储层计算网络在时空混沌系统上的应用，该系统模拟了湍流的若干特征。我们表明，使用径向基函数作为非线性投影器，即使只有部分观测并且不知道控制方程，也能稳健地捕捉复杂的系统非线性。最后，我们表明，当测量稀疏、不完整且带有噪声，甚至控制方程变得不准确时，我们的网络仍然可以产生相当准确的预测，从而为实际湍流系统的无模型预测铺平了道路。
In recent years, Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) has been investigated mainly transforming the speech signal into spectrograms that are then classified using Convolutional Neural Networks pretrained on generic images and fine tuned with spectrograms. In this paper, we start from the general idea above and develop a new learning solution for SER, which is based on Compact Convolutional Transformers (CCTs) combined with a speaker embedding. With CCTs, the learning power of Vision Transformers (ViT) is combined with a diminished need for large volume of data as made possible by the convolution. This is important in SER, where large corpora of data are usually not available. The speaker embedding allows the network to extract an identity representation of the speaker, which is then integrated by means of a self-attention mechanism with the features that the CCT extracts from the spectrogram. Overall, the solution is capable of operating in real-time showing promising results in a cross-corpus scenario, where training and test datasets are kept separate. Experiments have been performed on several benchmarks in a cross-corpus setting as rarely used in the literature, with results that are comparable or superior to those obtained with state-of-the-art network architectures.
