Spectral sub-bands do not portray the same perceptual relevance. In audio coding, it is therefore desirable to have independent control over each of the constituent bands so that bitrate assignment and signal reconstruction can be achieved…
Denoising diffusion models (DDMs) have recently attracted increasing attention by showing impressive synthesis quality. DDMs are built on a diffusion process that pushes data to the noise distribution and the models learn to denoise. In…
In this work, we propose an approach to music source separation that uses a generative diffusion model as a last-stage refinement on top of a deterministic separator, progressively enhancing the separated sources through iterative…
Despite significant advances in deep models for music generation, the use of these techniques remains restricted to expert users. Before being democratized among musicians, generative models must first provide expressive control over the…
Hearing aids use dynamic range compression (DRC), a form of automatic gain control, to make quiet sounds louder and loud sounds quieter. Compression can improve listening comfort, but it can also cause distortion in noisy environments. It…
Modern neural speech enhancement models usually include various forms of phase information in their training loss terms, either explicitly or implicitly. However, these loss terms are typically designed to reduce the distortion of phase…
We study federated machine learning at the wireless network edge, where limited power wireless devices, each with its own dataset, build a joint model with the help of a remote parameter server (PS). We consider a bandwidth-limited fading…
