Recent advances in the Active Speaker Detection (ASD) problem build upon a two-stage process: feature extraction and spatio-temporal context aggregation. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end ASD workflow where feature learning and…

Voice activity detection (VAD) is an essential pre-processing step for tasks such as automatic speech recognition (ASR) and speaker recognition. A basic goal is to remove silent segments within an audio, while a more general VAD system…

Voice activity detection (VAD), which classifies frames as speech or non-speech, is an important module in many speech applications including speaker verification. In this paper, we propose a novel method, called self-adaptive soft VAD, to…

To better model the contextual information and increase the generalization ability of Speech Activity Detection (SAD) system, this paper leverages a multi-lingual Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) system to perform SAD. Sequence…

Speech activity detection (SAD), which often rests on the fact that the noise is "more" stationary than speech, is particularly challenging in non-stationary environments, because the time variance of the acoustic scene makes it difficult…

Active speaker detection (ASD) is a multi-modal task that aims to identify who, if anyone, is speaking from a set of candidates. Current audio-visual approaches for ASD typically rely on visually pre-extracted face tracks (sequences of…

In this work, we propose a training algorithm for an audio-visual automatic speech recognition (AV-ASR) system using deep recurrent neural network (RNN).First, we train a deep RNN acoustic model with a Connectionist Temporal Classification…

Speech Activity Detection (SAD) systems often misclassify singing as speech, leading to degraded performance in applications such as dialogue enhancement and automatic speech recognition. We introduce Singing-Robust Speech Activity…

This paper addresses the problem of Target Activity Detection (TAD) for binaural listening devices. TAD denotes the problem of robustly detecting the activity of a target speaker in a harsh acoustic environment, which comprises interfering…

Auditory attention decoding (AAD) is the process of identifying the attended speech in a multi-talker environment using brain signals, typically recorded through electroencephalography (EEG). Over the past decade, AAD has undergone…

Audiovisual active speaker detection (ASD) addresses the task of determining the speech activity of a candidate speaker given acoustic and visual data. Typically, systems model the temporal correspondence of audiovisual cues, such as the…

This paper delves into the challenging task of Active Speaker Detection (ASD), where the system needs to determine in real-time whether a person is speaking or not in a series of video frames. While previous works have made significant…

This paper addresses the issue of active speaker detection (ASD) in noisy environments and formulates a robust active speaker detection (rASD) problem. Existing ASD approaches leverage both audio and visual modalities, but non-speech sounds…

Recent studies have demonstrated that incorporating auxiliary information, such as speaker voiceprint or visual cues, can substantially improve Speech Enhancement (SE) performance. However, single-channel methods often yield suboptimal…

Robust voice activity detection (VAD) is a challenging task in low signal-to-noise (SNR) environments. Recent studies show that speech enhancement is helpful to VAD, but the performance improvement is limited. To address this issue, here we…

Audio-visual speech recognition (AVSR) system is thought to be one of the most promising solutions for robust speech recognition, especially in noisy environment. In this paper, we propose a novel multimodal attention based method for…

For speech interaction, voice activity detection (VAD) is often used as a front-end. However, traditional VAD algorithms usually need to wait for a continuous tail silence to reach a preset maximum duration before segmentation, resulting in…

Audiovisual active speaker detection (ASD) is conventionally performed by modelling the temporal synchronisation of acoustic and visual speech cues. In egocentric recordings, however, the efficacy of synchronisation-based methods is…

Active speaker detection (ASD) seeks to detect who is speaking in a visual scene of one or more speakers. The successful ASD depends on accurate interpretation of short-term and long-term audio and visual information, as well as…

Speech applications are expected to be low-power and robust under noisy conditions. An effective Voice Activity Detection (VAD) front-end lowers the computational need. Spiking Neural Networks (SNNs) are known to be biologically plausible…
