Voice conversion (VC) systems can transform audio to mimic another speaker's voice, thereby attacking speaker verification (SV) systems. However, ongoing studies on source speaker verification (SSV) are hindered by limited data availability…

This paper presents the second Chinese Continuous Visual Speech Recognition Challenge (CNVSRC 2024), which builds on CNVSRC 2023 to advance research in Chinese Large Vocabulary Continuous Visual Speech Recognition (LVC-VSR). The challenge…

The INTERSPEECH 2020 Deep Noise Suppression Challenge is intended to promote collaborative research in real-time single-channel Speech Enhancement aimed to maximize the subjective (perceptual) quality of the enhanced speech. A typical…

Dereverberation of recorded speech signals is one of the most pertinent problems in speech processing. In the present work, the objective is to understand and implement dereverberation techniques that aim at enhancing the magnitude…

Purpose: We introduce a novel methodology for voice pathology detection using the publicly available Saarbr\"ucken Voice Database (SVD) and a robust feature set combining commonly used acoustic handcrafted features with two novel ones:…

The VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenges (VoxSRC) were a series of challenges and workshops that ran annually from 2019 to 2023. The challenges primarily evaluated the tasks of speaker recognition and diarisation under various settings…

This report describes the submission system of the GIST-AiTeR team at the 2022 VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge (VoxSRC) Track 4. Our system mainly includes speech enhancement, voice activity detection , multi-scaled speaker…

Speech recognition and speaker identification are important for authentication and verification in security purpose, but they are difficult to achieve. Speaker identification methods can be divided into text-independent and text-dependent.…

Voice conversion as the style transfer task applied to speech, refers to converting one person's speech into a new speech that sounds like another person's. Up to now, there has been a lot of research devoted to better implementation of VC…

A judicious combination of dictionary learning methods, block sparsity and source recovery algorithm are used in a hierarchical manner to identify the noises and the speakers from a noisy conversation between two people. Conversations are…

This paper presents a summary of the VQualA 2025 Challenge on Visual Quality Comparison for Large Multimodal Models (LMMs), hosted as part of the ICCV 2025 Workshop on Visual Quality Assessment. The challenge aims to evaluate and enhance…

We propose a benchmark for evaluating compositionality in audio representations. Audio compositionality refers to representing sound scenes in terms of constituent sources and attributes, and combining them systematically. While central to…

Vocal fatigue refers to the feeling of tiredness and weakness of voice due to extended utilization. This paper investigates the effectiveness of neural embeddings for the detection of vocal fatigue. We compare x-vectors, ECAPA-TDNN, and…

Previous Multimodal Information based Speech Processing (MISP) challenges mainly focused on audio-visual speech recognition (AVSR) with commendable success. However, the most advanced back-end recognition systems often hit performance…

In this work, we investigate multilingual speech Pre-Trained models (PTMs) for Audio deepfake detection (ADD). We hypothesize that multilingual PTMs trained on large-scale diverse multilingual data gain knowledge about diverse pitches,…

Speaker verification (SV) systems are currently being used to make sensitive decisions like giving access to bank accounts or deciding whether the voice of a suspect coincides with that of the perpetrator of a crime. Ensuring that these…

Speaker verification (SV) has recently attracted considerable research interest due to the growing popularity of virtual assistants. At the same time, there is an increasing requirement for an SV system: it should be robust to short 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…

In this study, we present our methodology for two tasks: the Emotional Mimicry Intensity (EMI) Estimation Challenge and the Behavioural Ambivalence/Hesitancy (BAH) Recognition Challenge, both conducted as part of the 8th Workshop and…

People naturally understand the emotions of-and often also empathize with-those around them. In this paper, we predict the emotional valence of an empathic listener over time as they listen to a speaker narrating a life story. We use the…
