The audio source separation tasks, such as speech enhancement, speech separation, and music source separation, have achieved impressive performance in recent studies. The powerful modeling capabilities of deep neural networks give us hope…
A prototypical blind signal separation problem is the so-called cocktail party problem, with n people talking simultaneously and n different microphones within a room. The goal is to recover each speech signal from the microphone inputs.…
Speaker Identification process is to identify a particular vocal cord from a set of existing speakers. In the speaker identification processes, unknown speaker voice sample targets each of the existing speakers present in the system and…
We present a novel source separation model to decompose asingle-channel speech signal into two speech segments belonging to two different speakers. The proposed model is a neural network based on residual blocks, and uses learnt speaker…
We propose an independence-based joint dereverberation and separation method with a neural source model. We introduce a neural network in the framework of time-decorrelation iterative source steering, which is an extension of independent…
Speaker embeddings represent a means to extract representative vectorial representations from a speech signal such that the representation pertains to the speaker identity alone. The embeddings are commonly used to classify and discriminate…
Most state-of-the-art Deep Learning systems for speaker verification are based on speaker embedding extractors. These architectures are commonly composed of a feature extractor front-end together with a pooling layer to encode…
Speaker verification is the process by which a speakers claim of identity is tested against a claimed speaker by his or her voice. Speaker verification is done by the use of some parameters (features) from the speakers voice which can be…
This paper proposes a neural network based speech separation method using spatially distributed microphones. Unlike with traditional microphone array settings, neither the number of microphones nor their spatial arrangement is known in…
In this paper, a novel method using 3D Convolutional Neural Network (3D-CNN) architecture has been proposed for speaker verification in the text-independent setting. One of the main challenges is the creation of the speaker models. Most of…
We investigate deep neural network performance in the textindependent speaker recognition task. We demonstrate that using angular softmax activation at the last classification layer of a classification neural network instead of a simple…
State-of-the-art speaker verification systems are inherently dependent on some kind of human supervision as they are trained on massive amounts of labeled data. However, manually annotating utterances is slow, expensive and not scalable to…
Humans can easily isolate a single speaker from a complex acoustic environment, a capability referred to as the "Cocktail Party Effect." However, replicating this ability has been a significant challenge in the field of target speaker…
Speech signals encompass various information across multiple levels including content, speaker, and style. Disentanglement of these information, although challenging, is important for applications such as voice conversion. The contrastive…
Accurate recognition of cocktail party speech containing overlapping speakers, noise and reverberation remains a highly challenging task to date. Motivated by the invariance of visual modality to acoustic signal corruption, an audio-visual…
We present Deep Speaker, a neural speaker embedding system that maps utterances to a hypersphere where speaker similarity is measured by cosine similarity. The embeddings generated by Deep Speaker can be used for many tasks, including…
Given a multi-microphone recording of an unknown number of speakers talking concurrently, we simultaneously localize the sources and separate the individual speakers. At the core of our method is a deep network, in the waveform domain,…
The goal of this paper is speech separation and enhancement in multi-speaker and noisy environments using a combination of different modalities. Previous works have shown good performance when conditioning on temporal or static visual…
This paper proposes attentive statistics pooling for deep speaker embedding in text-independent speaker verification. In conventional speaker embedding, frame-level features are averaged over all the frames of a single utterance to form an…
In a multi-channel separation task with multiple speakers, we aim to recover all individual speech signals from the mixture. In contrast to single-channel approaches, which rely on the different spectro-temporal characteristics of the…
