Voice authentication has undergone significant changes from traditional systems that relied on handcrafted acoustic features to deep learning models that can extract robust speaker embeddings. This advancement has expanded its applications…
Speaker anonymization is the task of modifying a speech recording such that the original speaker cannot be identified anymore. Since the first Voice Privacy Challenge in 2020, along with the release of a framework, the popularity of this…
Audio packet loss concealment is the hiding of gaps in VoIP audio streams caused by network packet loss. With the ICASSP 2024 Audio Deep Packet Loss Concealment Grand Challenge, we build on the success of the previous Audio PLC Challenge…
Speaker anonymization is an effective privacy protection solution that conceals the speaker's identity while preserving the linguistic content and paralinguistic information of the original speech. To establish a fair benchmark and…
For many decades, research in speech technologies has focused upon improving reliability. With this now meeting user expectations for a range of diverse applications, speech technology is today omni-present. As result, a focus on security…
Voice privacy approaches that preserve the anonymity of speakers modify speech in an attempt to break the link with the true identity of the speaker. Current benchmarks measure speaker protection based on signal-to-signal comparisons. In…
Speaker adaptation systems face privacy concerns, for such systems are trained on private datasets and often overfitting. This paper demonstrates that an attacker can extract speaker information by querying speaker-adapted speech…
The first spoofing-aware speaker verification (SASV) challenge aims to integrate research efforts in speaker verification and anti-spoofing. We extend the speaker verification scenario by introducing spoofed trials to the usual set of…
The ICASSP 2023 Acoustic Echo Cancellation Challenge is intended to stimulate research in acoustic echo cancellation (AEC), which is an important area of speech enhancement and is still a top issue in audio communication. This is the fourth…
Voice anonymization aims to conceal speaker identity and attributes while preserving intelligibility, but current evaluations rely almost exclusively on Equal Error Rate (EER) that obscures whether adversaries can mount high-precision…
In this paper, we present a Distribution-Preserving Voice Anonymization technique, as our submission to the VoicePrivacy Challenge 2020. We observe that the challenge baseline system generates fake X-vectors which are very similar to each…
How secure automatic speaker verification (ASV) technology is? More concretely, given a specific target speaker, how likely is it to find another person who gets falsely accepted as that target? This question may be addressed empirically by…
Voice anonymization systems aim to protect speaker privacy by obscuring vocal traits while preserving the linguistic content relevant for downstream applications. However, because these linguistic cues remain intact, they can be exploited…
In the scenario of the Voice Privacy challenge, anonymization is achieved by converting all utterances from a source speaker to match the same target identity; this identity being randomly selected. In this context, an attacker with maximum…
The 2020 Personalized Voice Trigger Challenge (PVTC2020) addresses two different research problems a unified setup: joint wake-up word detection with speaker verification on close-talking single microphone data and far-field multi-channel…
The ICASSP 2024 Speech Signal Improvement Grand Challenge is intended to stimulate research in the area of improving the speech signal quality in communication systems. This marks our second challenge, building upon the success from the…
Privacy-preserving voice protection approaches primarily suppress privacy-related information derived from paralinguistic attributes while preserving the linguistic content. Existing solutions focus particularly on single-speaker scenarios.…
The ICASSP 2022 Acoustic Echo Cancellation Challenge is intended to stimulate research in acoustic echo cancellation (AEC), which is an important area of speech enhancement and still a top issue in audio communication. This is the third AEC…
Voice assistant applications have become omniscient nowadays. Two models that provide the two most important functions for real-life applications (i.e., Google Home, Amazon Alexa, Siri, etc.) are Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) models…
While the last decade has witnessed significant advancements in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems, performance of these systems for individuals with speech disabilities remains inadequate, partly due to limited public training…
