Speech synthesis is an important practical generative modeling problem that has seen great progress over the last few years, with likelihood-based autoregressive neural models now outperforming traditional concatenative systems. A downside…

The recent WSNet [1] is a new model compression method through sampling filterweights from a compact set and has demonstrated to be effective for 1D convolutionneural networks (CNNs). However, the weights sampling strategy of WSNet…

Unconstrained lip-to-speech synthesis aims to generate corresponding speeches from silent videos of talking faces with no restriction on head poses or vocabulary. Current works mainly use sequence-to-sequence models to solve this problem,…

We introduce EffiFusion-GAN (Efficient Fusion Generative Adversarial Network), a lightweight yet powerful model for speech enhancement. The model integrates depthwise separable convolutions within a multi-scale block to capture diverse…

Neural network-based Text-to-Speech has significantly improved the quality of synthesized speech. Prominent methods (e.g., Tacotron2, FastSpeech, FastPitch) usually generate Mel-spectrogram from text and then synthesize speech using vocoder…

End-to-end model, especially Recurrent Neural Network Transducer (RNN-T), has achieved great success in speech recognition. However, transducer requires a great memory footprint and computing time when processing a long decoding sequence.…

Speech recognition in noisy and channel distorted scenarios is often challenging as the current acoustic modeling schemes are not adaptive to the changes in the signal distribution in the presence of noise. In this work, we develop a novel…

Speech enhancement involves the distinction of a target speech signal from an intrusive background. Although generative approaches using Variational Autoencoders or Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have increasingly been used in…

Diffusion models and flow-matching models have enabled generating diverse and realistic images by learning to transfer noise to data. However, sampling from these models involves iterative denoising over many neural network passes, making…

Voice conversion has gained increasing popularity within the field of audio manipulation and speech synthesis. Often, the main objective is to transfer the input identity to that of a target speaker without changing its linguistic content.…

Target speech separation is the process of filtering a certain speaker's voice out of speech mixtures according to the additional speaker identity information provided. Recent works have made considerable improvement by processing signals…
