With the advancement of audio generation, generative models can produce highly realistic audios. However, the proliferation of deepfake general audio can pose negative consequences. Therefore, we propose a new task, deepfake general audio…

Inspired by the recent progress in self-supervised learning for computer vision, in this paper we introduce DeLoRes, a new general-purpose audio representation learning approach. Our main objective is to make our network learn…

Language barriers in virtual meetings remain a persistent challenge to global collaboration. Real-time translation offers promise, yet current integrations often neglect perceptual cues. This study investigates how spatial audio rendering…

Audio analysis for forensic speaker verification offers unique challenges in system performance due in part to data collected in naturalistic field acoustic environments where location/scenario uncertainty is common in the forensic data…

The VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge (VoxSRC) at Interspeech 2020 offers a challenging evaluation for speaker recognition systems, which includes celebrities playing different parts in movies. The goal of this work is robust speaker…

This paper introduces VoxSim, a dataset of perceptual voice similarity ratings. Recent efforts to automate the assessment of speech synthesis technologies have primarily focused on predicting mean opinion score of naturalness, leaving…

Neural network-based speaker recognition has achieved significant improvement in recent years. A robust speaker representation learns meaningful knowledge from both hard and easy samples in the training set to achieve good performance.…

The development of robust, multilingual speaker recognition systems is hindered by a lack of large-scale, publicly available and multilingual datasets, particularly for the read-speech style crucial for applications like anti-spoofing. To…

For many of the 700 million illiterate people around the world, speech recognition technology could provide a bridge to valuable information and services. Yet, those most in need of this technology are often the most underserved by it. In…

Speech separation with several speakers is a challenging task because of the non-stationarity of the speech and the strong signal similarity between interferent sources. Current state-of-the-art solutions can separate well the different…

We address the problem of speech enhancement generalisation to unseen environments by performing two manipulations. First, we embed an additional recording from the environment alone, and use this embedding to alter activations in the main…

We present an indoor acoustic simulation framework that supports both ultrasonic and audible signaling. The framework opens the opportunity for fast indoor acoustic data generation and positioning development. The improved…

Voice Conversion (VC) for unseen speakers, also known as zero-shot VC, is an attractive research topic as it enables a range of applications like voice customizing, animation production, and others. Recent work in this area made progress…

Voice interfaces are quickly becoming a common way for people to interact with AI systems. This also brings new security risks, such as prompt injection, social engineering, and harmful voice commands. Traditional security methods rely on…

The "VOiCES from a Distance Challenge 2019" is designed to foster research in the area of speaker recognition and automatic speech recognition (ASR) with the special focus on single channel distant/far-field audio, under noisy conditions.…

The increasing adoption of text-to-speech technologies has led to a growing demand for natural and emotive voices that adapt to a conversation's context and emotional tone. The Emotive Narrative Storytelling (EMNS) corpus is a unique speech…

Speaker localization in a reverberant environment is a fundamental problem in audio signal processing. Many solutions have been developed to tackle this problem. However, previous algorithms typically assume a stationary environment in…

The effectiveness of one-shot voice conversion (VC) decreases in real-world scenarios where reference speeches, which are often sourced from the internet, contain various disturbances like background noise. To address this issue, we…

The growing prevalence of speech deepfakes has raised serious concerns, particularly in real-world scenarios such as telephone fraud and identity theft. While many anti-spoofing systems have demonstrated promising performance on…

Underground stations are a common communication situation in towns: we talk with friends or colleagues, listen to announcements or shop for titbits while background noise and reverberation are challenging communication. Here, we perform an…
