Streaming multi-talker speech translation is a task that involves not only generating accurate and fluent translations with low latency but also recognizing when a speaker change occurs and what the speaker's gender is. Speaker change…
Voice conversion has gained increasing popularity in many applications of speech synthesis. The idea is to change the voice identity from one speaker into another while keeping the linguistic content unchanged. Many voice conversion…
Singing voice conversion is to convert the source singing voice into the target singing voice except for the content. Currently, flow-based models can complete the task of voice conversion, but they struggle to effectively extract latent…
This paper improves the streaming transformer transducer for speech recognition by using non-causal convolution. Many works apply the causal convolution to improve streaming transformer ignoring the lookahead context. We propose to use…
