Background noise, interfering speech and room reverberation frequently distort target speech in real listening environments. In this study, we address joint speech separation and dereverberation, which aims to separate target speech from…
Speech separation is the task of separating target speech from background interference. Traditionally, speech separation is studied as a signal processing problem. A more recent approach formulates speech separation as a supervised learning…
Speech separation refers to extracting each individual speech source in a given mixed signal. Recent advancements in speech separation and ongoing research in this area, have made these approaches as promising techniques for pre-processing…
The performance of speaker verification degrades significantly when the test speech is corrupted by interference speakers. Speaker diarization does well to separate speakers if the speakers are temporally overlapped. However, if…
Leveraging additional speaker information to facilitate speech separation has received increasing attention in recent years. Recent research includes extracting target speech by using the target speaker's voice snippet and jointly…
We propose a method to address audio-visual target speaker enhancement in multi-talker environments using event-driven cameras. State of the art audio-visual speech separation methods shows that crucial information is the movement of the…
Recently, there has been growing interest in multi-speaker speech recognition, where the utterances of multiple speakers are recognized from their mixture. Promising techniques have been proposed for this task, but earlier works have…
One-shot voice conversion has received significant attention since only one utterance from source speaker and target speaker respectively is required. Moreover, source speaker and target speaker do not need to be seen during training.…
Speaker separation aims to extract multiple voices from a mixed signal. In this paper, we propose two speaker-aware designs to improve the existing speaker separation solutions. The first model is a speaker conditioning network that…
In this paper, we introduce a novel framework for generating multi-speaker speech without relying on any audible inputs. Our approach leverages silent electromyography (EMG) signals to capture linguistic content, while facial images are…
Target Speech Extraction (TSE) traditionally relies on explicit clues about the speaker's identity like enrollment audio, face images, or videos, which may not always be available. In this paper, we propose a text-guided TSE model StyleTSE…
Speaker diarization, the process of segmenting an audio stream or transcribed speech content into homogenous partitions based on speaker identity, plays a crucial role in the interpretation and analysis of human speech. Most existing…
Separating target speech from mixed signals containing flexible speaker quantities presents a challenging task. While existing methods demonstrate strong separation performance and noise robustness, they predominantly assume prior knowledge…
Audio-visual multi-modal modeling has been demonstrated to be effective in many speech related tasks, such as speech recognition and speech enhancement. This paper introduces a new time-domain audio-visual architecture for target speaker…
The mapping of text to speech (TTS) is non-deterministic, letters may be pronounced differently based on context, or phonemes can vary depending on various physiological and stylistic factors like gender, age, accent, emotions, etc. Neural…
Target speaker extraction (TSE) relies on a reference cue of the target to extract the target speech from a speech mixture. While a speaker embedding is commonly used as the reference cue, such embedding pre-trained with a large number of…
We present a new method for separating a mixed audio sequence, in which multiple voices speak simultaneously. The new method employs gated neural networks that are trained to separate the voices at multiple processing steps, while…
Speaker extraction seeks to extract the clean speech of a target speaker from a multi-talker mixture speech. There have been studies to use a pre-recorded speech sample or face image of the target speaker as the speaker cue. In human…
The development of privacy-preserving automatic speaker verification systems has been the focus of a number of studies with the intent of allowing users to authenticate themselves without risking the privacy of their voice. However, current…
We introduce a new paradigm for single-channel target source separation where the sources of interest can be distinguished using non-mutually exclusive concepts (e.g., loudness, gender, language, spatial location, etc). Our proposed…
