Large Language Models have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in open-domain dialogues. However, current methods exhibit suboptimal performance in service dialogues, as they rely on noisy, low-quality human conversation data. This…

Articulation, emotion, and personality play strong roles in the orofacial movements. To improve the naturalness and expressiveness of virtual agents (VAs), it is important that we carefully model the complex interplay between these factors.…

Detecting an Out-of-Domain (OOD) utterance is crucial for a robust dialog system. Most dialog systems are trained on a pool of annotated OOD data to achieve this goal. However, collecting the annotated OOD data for a given domain is an…

Recent advancement in Generative Adversarial Networks in speech synthesis domain[3],[2] have shown, that it's possible to train GANs [8] in a reliable manner for high quality coherent waveform generation from mel-spectograms. We propose…

In neural dialogue modeling, a neural network is trained to predict the next utterance, and at inference time, an approximate decoding algorithm is used to generate next utterances given previous ones. While this autoregressive framework…

Speech synthesis is used in a wide variety of industries. Nonetheless, it always sounds flat or robotic. The state of the art methods that allow for prosody control are very cumbersome to use and do not allow easy tuning. To tackle some of…

Factorizing speech as disentangled speech representations is vital to achieve highly controllable style transfer in voice conversion (VC). Conventional speech representation learning methods in VC only factorize speech as speaker and…

Deep learning has become a standard approach for the modeling of audio effects, yet strictly black-box modeling remains problematic for time-varying systems. Unlike time-invariant effects, training models on devices with internal modulation…

Intelligent personal assistant systems that are able to have multi-turn conversations with human users are becoming increasingly popular. Most previous research has been focused on using either retrieval-based or generation-based methods to…

In this paper, we study the problem of data augmentation for language understanding in task-oriented dialogue system. In contrast to previous work which augments an utterance without considering its relation with other utterances, we…

Deep neural network based speaker recognition systems can easily be deceived by an adversary using minuscule imperceptible perturbations to the input speech samples. These adversarial attacks pose serious security threats to the speaker…

In this paper we investigate the use of adversarial domain adaptation for addressing the problem of language mismatch between speaker recognition corpora. In the context of speaker verification, adversarial domain adaptation methods aim at…

The speech enhancement task usually consists of removing additive noise or reverberation that partially mask spoken utterances, affecting their intelligibility. However, little attention is drawn to other, perhaps more aggressive signal…

This paper addresses user-specific dialogs. In contrast to previous research on personalized dialogue focused on achieving virtual user dialogue as defined by persona descriptions, user-specific dialogue aims to reproduce real-user dialogue…

This paper analyzes some speed and performance improvement methods of Transformer architecture in recent years, mainly its application in dedicated model training. The dedicated model studied here refers to the open domain persona-aware…

The conventional speaker recognition frameworks (e.g., the i-vector and CNN-based approach) have been successfully applied to various tasks when the channel of the enrolment dataset is similar to that of the test dataset. However, in…

Automatically assessing emotional valence in human speech has historically been a difficult task for machine learning algorithms. The subtle changes in the voice of the speaker that are indicative of positive or negative emotional states…

The generation of personalized dialogue is vital to natural and human-like conversation. Typically, personalized dialogue generation models involve conditioning the generated response on the dialogue history and a representation of the…

Multi-turn response selection is a task designed for developing dialogue agents. The performance on this task has a remarkable improvement with pre-trained language models. However, these models simply concatenate the turns in dialogue…

A multi-turn dialogue always follows a specific topic thread, and topic shift at the discourse level occurs naturally as the conversation progresses, necessitating the model's ability to capture different topics and generate topic-aware…
