The increasing availability of audio data on the internet lead to a multitude of datasets for development and training of text to speech applications, based on neural networks. Highly differing quality of voice, low sampling rates, lack of…

We present PyNeuralFx, an open-source Python toolkit designed for research on neural audio effect modeling. The toolkit provides an intuitive framework and offers a comprehensive suite of features, including standardized implementation of…

We introduce STRAUSS (Sonification Tools and Resources for Analysis Using Sound Synthesis) a modular, self-contained and flexible Python sonification package, operating in a free and open source (FOSS) capacity. STRAUSS is intended to be a…

Acoustic howling suppression (AHS) is a critical challenge in audio communication systems. In this paper, we propose a novel approach that leverages the power of neural networks (NN) to enhance the performance of traditional Kalman filter…

In this work, we propose a full-band real-time speech enhancement system with GAN-based stochastic regeneration. Predictive models focus on estimating the mean of the target distribution, whereas generative models aim to learn the full…

We introduce AnyEnhance, a unified generative model for voice enhancement that processes both speech and singing voices. Based on a masked generative model, AnyEnhance is capable of handling both speech and singing voices, supporting a wide…

Many speech enhancement methods try to learn the relationship between noisy and clean speech, obtained using an acoustic room simulator. We point out several limitations of enhancement methods relying on clean speech targets; the goal of…

The performance of speech processing models trained on clean speech drops significantly in noisy conditions. Training with noisy datasets alleviates the problem, but procuring such datasets is not always feasible. Noisy speech simulation…

We introduce Shennong, a Python toolbox and command-line utility for speech features extraction. It implements a wide range of well-established state of art algorithms including spectro-temporal filters such as Mel-Frequency Cepstral…

In this research, we present an innovative, parameter-efficient model that utilizes the attention U-Net architecture for the automatic detection and eradication of non-speech vocal sounds, specifically breath sounds, in vocal recordings.…

Large Audio Language Models (LALMs) are rapidly advancing, but evaluating them remains challenging due to inefficient and non-standardized toolkits that limit fair comparison and systematic assessment. Existing evaluation frameworks exhibit…

In recent years, the introduction of neural networks (NNs) into the field of speech enhancement has brought significant improvements. However, many of the proposed methods are quite demanding in terms of computational complexity and memory…

We introduce pyannote.audio, an open-source toolkit written in Python for speaker diarization. Based on PyTorch machine learning framework, it provides a set of trainable end-to-end neural building blocks that can be combined and jointly…

In this paper, we propose NU-GAN, a new method for resampling audio from lower to higher sampling rates (upsampling). Audio upsampling is an important problem since productionizing generative speech technology requires operating at high…

Subjective evaluation results for two low-latency deep neural networks (DNN) are compared to a matured version of a traditional Wiener-filter based noise suppressor. The target use-case is real-world single-channel speech enhancement…

Most work in audio enhancement targets human speech, while bioacoustics is less studied due to noisy recordings and the distinct traits of animal sounds. To fill this gap, we adapt speech enhancement methods and build BioSEN, a model made…

Can we develop a model that can synthesize realistic speech directly from a latent space, without explicit conditioning? Despite several efforts over the last decade, previous adversarial and diffusion-based approaches still struggle to…

This paper introduces a speech enhancement solution tailored for true wireless stereo (TWS) earbuds on-device usage. The solution was specifically designed to support conversations in noisy environments, with active noise cancellation (ANC)…

Existing self-supervised pre-trained speech models have offered an effective way to leverage massive unannotated corpora to build good automatic speech recognition (ASR). However, many current models are trained on a clean corpus from a…

The DeepFilterNet (DFN) architecture was recently proposed as a deep learning model suited for hearing aid devices. Despite its competitive performance on numerous benchmarks, it still follows a `one-size-fits-all' approach, which aims to…
