Creating realistic and natural-sounding synthetic speech remains a big challenge for voice identities unseen during training. As there is growing interest in synthesizing voices of new speakers, here we investigate the ability of…
Isolating the voice of a specific person while filtering out other voices or background noises is challenging when video is shot in noisy environments. We propose audio-visual methods to isolate the voice of a single speaker and eliminate…
Non-parallel voice conversion (VC) is typically achieved using lossy representations of the source speech. However, ensuring only speaker identity information is dropped whilst all other information from the source speech is retained is a…
The objective of this paper is to separate a target speaker's speech from a mixture of two speakers using a deep audio-visual speech separation network. Unlike previous works that used lip movement on video clips or pre-enrolled speaker…
This paper discusses the task of face-based speech synthesis, a kind of personalized speech synthesis where the synthesized voices are constrained to perceptually match with a reference face image. Due to the lack of TTS-quality…
Unsupervised Zero-Shot Voice Conversion (VC) aims to modify the speaker characteristic of an utterance to match an unseen target speaker without relying on parallel training data. Recently, self-supervised learning of speech representation…
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…
We introduce MaskVCT, a zero-shot voice conversion (VC) model that offers multi-factor controllability through multiple classifier-free guidances (CFGs). While previous VC models rely on a fixed conditioning scheme, MaskVCT integrates…
Visual Speech Recognition (VSR) stands at the intersection of computer vision and speech recognition, aiming to interpret spoken content from visual cues. A prominent challenge in VSR is the presence of homophenes-visually similar lip…
An automatic speaker verification system aims to verify the speaker identity of a speech signal. However, a voice conversion system could manipulate a person's speech signal to make it sound like another speaker's voice and deceive the…
Zero-shot singing voice conversion (SVC) transforms a source singer's timbre to an unseen target speaker's voice while preserving melodic content without fine-tuning. Existing methods model speaker timbre and vocal content separately,…
We present a self-supervised learning method to learn audio and video representations. Prior work uses the natural correspondence between audio and video to define a standard cross-modal instance discrimination task, where a model is…
One-shot voice conversion (VC) with only a single target speaker's speech for reference has become a hot research topic. Existing works generally disentangle timbre, while information about pitch, rhythm and content is still mixed together.…
One-shot voice conversion aims to change the timbre of any source speech to match that of the unseen target speaker with only one speech sample. Existing methods face difficulties in satisfactory speech representation disentanglement and…
We present StreamVC, a streaming voice conversion solution that preserves the content and prosody of any source speech while matching the voice timbre from any target speech. Unlike previous approaches, StreamVC produces the resulting…
Singing voice conversion (SVC) aims to render the target singer's timbre while preserving melody and lyrics. However, existing zero-shot SVC systems remain fragile in real songs due to harmony interference, F0 errors, and the lack of…
Multiple studies in the past have shown that there is a strong correlation between human vocal characteristics and facial features. However, existing approaches generate faces simply from voice, without exploring the set of features that…
This paper introduces voice reenactement as the task of voice conversion (VC) in which the expressivity of the source speaker is preserved during conversion while the identity of a target speaker is transferred. To do so, an original…
This paper introduces FastVC, an end-to-end model for fast Voice Conversion (VC). The proposed model can convert speech of arbitrary length from multiple source speakers to multiple target speakers. FastVC is based on a conditional…
In this paper, we introduce a novel continual audio-visual sound separation task, aiming to continuously separate sound sources for new classes while preserving performance on previously learned classes, with the aid of visual guidance.…
