The End-to-end (E2E) learning-based approach has great potential to reshape the existing communication systems by replacing the transceivers with deep neural networks. To this end, the E2E learning approach needs to assume the availability…
Training a semi-supervised end-to-end speech recognition system using noisy student training has significantly improved performance. However, this approach requires a substantial amount of paired speech-text and unlabeled speech, which is…
Grammatical error correction (GEC) is an important NLP task that is currently usually solved with autoregressive sequence-to-sequence models. However, approaches of this class are inherently slow due to one-by-one token generation, so…
The ICASSP 2021 Acoustic Echo Cancellation Challenge is intended to stimulate research in the area of acoustic echo cancellation (AEC), which is an important part of speech enhancement and still a top issue in audio communication and…
Current Grammar Error Correction (GEC) initiatives tend to focus on major languages, with less attention given to low-resource languages like Esperanto. In this article, we begin to bridge this gap by first conducting a comprehensive…
Estimating confidence scores for recognition results is a classic task in ASR field and of vital importance for kinds of downstream tasks and training strategies. Previous end-to-end~(E2E) based confidence estimation models (CEM) predict…
Mispronunciation detection and diagnosis (MDD) is designed to identify pronunciation errors and provide instructive feedback to guide non-native language learners, which is a core component in computer-assisted pronunciation training (CAPT)…
A number of methods have been proposed for End-to-End Spoken Language Understanding (E2E-SLU) using pretrained models, however their evaluation often lacks multilingual setup and tasks that require prediction of lexical fillers, such as…
The INTERSPEECH 2025 Challenge on Multilingual Conversational Speech Language Models (MLC-SLM) promotes multilingual conversational ASR with large language models (LLMs). Our previous SHNU-mASR system adopted a competitive…
Adversarial training of end-to-end (E2E) ASR systems using generative adversarial networks (GAN) has recently been explored for low-resource ASR corpora. GANs help to learn the true data representation through a two-player min-max game.…
In recent years, speaker diarization has attracted widespread attention. To achieve better performance, some studies propose to diarize speech in multiple stages. Although these methods might bring additional benefits, most of them are…
We introduce the Speak & Improve Corpus 2025, a dataset of L2 learner English data with holistic scores and language error annotation, collected from open (spontaneous) speaking tests on the Speak & Improve learning platform. The aim of the…
Retrieval-augmented generation methods often neglect the quality of content retrieved from external knowledge bases, resulting in irrelevant information or potential misinformation that negatively affects the generation results of large…
Emotional voice conversion (EVC) aims to change the emotional state of an utterance while preserving the linguistic content and speaker identity. In this paper, we propose a novel 2-stage training strategy for sequence-to-sequence emotional…
Chinese Grammatical Error Correction (CGEC) aims to generate a correct sentence from an erroneous sequence, where different kinds of errors are mixed. This paper divides the CGEC task into two steps, namely spelling error correction and…
Speaker Diarization (SD) systems are typically audio-based and operate independently of the ASR system in traditional speech transcription pipelines and can have speaker errors due to SD and/or ASR reconciliation, especially around speaker…
Recently, end-to-end (E2E) speech recognition has become popular, since it can integrate the acoustic, pronunciation and language models into a single neural network, which outperforms conventional models. Among E2E approaches,…
To address the limitations of existing Generative Fixed-Filter Active Noise Control (GFANC) methods, which rely on filter decomposition and recombination and require supervised learning with labeled data, this paper proposes a…
Dialogue act classification (DAC) is a critical task for spoken language understanding in dialogue systems. Prosodic features such as energy and pitch have been shown to be useful for DAC. Despite their importance, little research has…
Given recent advances in generative AI technology, a key question is how large language models (LLMs) can enhance acoustic modeling tasks using text decoding results from a frozen, pretrained automatic speech recognition (ASR) model. To…
