In this paper, we propose MMER, a novel Multimodal Multi-task learning approach for Speech Emotion Recognition. MMER leverages a novel multimodal network based on early-fusion and cross-modal self-attention between text and acoustic…
In Sound Event Detection (SED) systems, the lengths of median filters for post-processing have never been optimized during training due to several problems. No gradient is received by the lengths so they cannot be learned during…
The World Health Organization (WHO) reported 1.25 million deaths yearly due to road traffic accidents worldwide and the number has been continuously increasing over the last few years. Nearly fifth of these accidents are caused by…
In multi-speaker scenarios, leveraging spatial features is essential for enhancing target speech. While with limited microphone arrays, developing a compact multi-channel speech enhancement system remains challenging, especially in…
Hallucinations in Large Language Models (LLMs) represent a critical barrier to their reliable deployment, a vulnerability heavily exacerbated in non-English and resource-constrained contexts. Existing detection approaches that rely on…
Despite the widespread use of Transformer-based text embedding models in NLP tasks, surprising 'sticky tokens' can undermine the reliability of embeddings. These tokens, when repeatedly inserted into sentences, pull sentence similarity…
Voice activity detection (VAD) makes a distinction between speech and non-speech and its performance is of crucial importance for speech based services. Recently, deep neural network (DNN)-based VADs have achieved better performance than…
The analysis of speech in individuals with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis is a powerful tool to support clinicians in the assessment of bulbar dysfunction. However, current methods used in clinical practice consist of subjective evaluations…
Background: Depression is a major public health concern, affecting an estimated five percent of the global population. Early and accurate diagnosis is essential to initiate effective treatment, yet recognition remains challenging in many…
Self-talk-an internal dialogue that can occur silently or be spoken aloud-plays a crucial role in emotional regulation, cognitive processing, and motivation, yet has remained largely invisible and unmeasurable in everyday life. In this…
Despite recent successes with neural models for sign language translation (SLT), translation quality still lags behind spoken languages because of the data scarcity and modality gap between sign video and text. To address both problems, we…
This study focuses on how different modalities of human communication can be used to distinguish between healthy controls and subjects with schizophrenia who exhibit strong positive symptoms. We developed a multi-modal schizophrenia…
Social media has a significant impact on people's lives. Hate speech on social media has emerged as one of society's most serious issues in recent years. Text and pictures are two forms of multimodal data that are distributed within…
Given an untrimmed video and natural language query, video sentence grounding aims to localize the target temporal moment in the video. Existing methods mainly tackle this task by matching and aligning semantics of the descriptive sentence…
Diagnosing autism spectrum disorder (ASD) by identifying abnormal speech patterns from examiner-patient dialogues presents significant challenges due to the subtle and diverse manifestations of speech-related symptoms in affected…
Face recognition is a crucial task in various multimedia applications such as security check, credential access and motion sensing games. However, the task is challenging when an input face is noisy (e.g. poor-condition RGB image) or lacks…
We introduce a multilingual speaker change detection model (USM-SCD) that can simultaneously detect speaker turns and perform ASR for 96 languages. This model is adapted from a speech foundation model trained on a large quantity of…
This paper proposes a delayed subband LSTM network for online monaural (single-channel) speech enhancement. The proposed method is developed in the short time Fourier transform (STFT) domain. Online processing requires frame-by-frame signal…
With the rapid advancement of generative AI, synthetic content across images, videos, and audio has become increasingly realistic, amplifying the risk of misinformation. Existing detection approaches predominantly focus on binary…
Sound Event Detection (SED) plays a vital role in comprehending and perceiving acoustic scenes. Previous methods have demonstrated impressive capabilities. However, they are deficient in learning features of complex scenes from…
