Sharma, Anirvin (author)Image data augmentation has been regarded as a reliable and effective way to increase the data available for training. With the advent and rise of Generative AI, generative data augmentation has been shown to realize even better gains in performance for downstream tasks. However, these performance gains are often the cause of "extra information"...master thesis 2023

Focante, Edoardo (author)In recent years, neural networks (NNs) have seen a surge in popularity due to their ability to model complex patterns and relationships in data. One of the challenges of using NNs is the requirement for large amounts of labelled data to train the model effectively. In many real-world applications such as radar, labelled data may be scarce due to...master thesis 2023

Mešić, Amar (author)Building Automatic Speech Recognizers (ASRs) has been a challenge in languages with insufficiently sized corpora or data sets. A further large issue in language corpora is biases against regionally accented speech and other speaker attributes. There are some techniques to improve ASR performance and reduce biases in these corpora, known as data...bachelor thesis 2022

Zhlebinkov, Nikolay (author)Automatic speech recognition (ASR) does not perform equally well on every speaker. There is bias against many attributes, including accent. To train Dutch ASR, there exists CGN(Corpus Gesproken Nederlands) and as an extension, the JASMIN corpus with annotated accented data. This paper focuses on improving ASR performance for NRAD (Northern...bachelor thesis 2022
