In this paper, we propose a new loss function called generalized end-to-end (GE2E) loss, which makes the training of speaker verification models more efficient than our previous tuple-based end-to-end (TE2E) loss function. Unlike TE2E, the…

Unsupervised speech representation learning has shown remarkable success at finding representations that correlate with phonetic structures and improve downstream speech recognition performance. However, most research has been focused on…

In multi-turn dialogs, natural language understanding models can introduce obvious errors by being blind to contextual information. To incorporate dialog history, we present a neural architecture with Speaker-Sensitive Dual Memory Networks…

In this paper, we provide a large audio-visual speaker recognition dataset, VoxBlink2, which includes approximately 10M utterances with videos from 110K+ speakers in the wild. This dataset represents a significant expansion over the…

End-to-end (E2E) automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems directly map acoustics to words using a unified model. Previous works mostly focus on E2E training a single model which integrates acoustic and language model into a whole.…

Transformers are among the state of the art for many tasks in speech, vision, and natural language processing, among others. Self-attentions, which are crucial contributors to this performance have quadratic computational complexity, which…

Phonotactic constraints can be employed to distinguish languages by representing a speech utterance as a multinomial distribution or phone events. In the present study, we propose a new learning mechanism based on subspace-based…

Speech recognition on smart devices is challenging owing to the small memory footprint. Hence small size ASR models are desirable. With the use of popular transducer-based models, it has become possible to practically deploy streaming…

Recent efforts in Spoken Dialogue Modeling aim to synthesize spoken dialogue without the need for direct transcription, thereby preserving the wealth of non-textual information inherent in speech. However, this approach faces a challenge…

Speech emotion recognition (SER) classifies human emotions in speech with a computer model. Recently, performance in SER has steadily increased as deep learning techniques have adapted. However, unlike many domains that use speech data,…

How much can we infer about a person's looks from the way they speak? In this paper, we study the task of reconstructing a facial image of a person from a short audio recording of that person speaking. We design and train a deep neural…

Direct speech-to-speech translation (S2ST) is an attractive research topic with many advantages compared to cascaded S2ST. However, direct S2ST suffers from the data scarcity problem because the corpora from speech of the source language to…

The mismatch between close-set training and open-set testing usually leads to significant performance degradation for speaker verification task. For existing loss functions, metric learning-based objectives depend strongly on searching…

A number of methods have been proposed for End-to-End Spoken Language Understanding (E2E-SLU) using pretrained models, however their evaluation often lacks multilingual setup and tasks that require prediction of lexical fillers, such as…

Voice Assistants such as Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant typically use a two-stage Spoken Language Understanding pipeline; first, an Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) component to process customer speech and generate text transcriptions,…

Developing Text Normalization (TN) systems for Text-to-Speech (TTS) on new languages is hard. We propose a novel architecture to facilitate it for multiple languages while using data less than 3% of the size of the data used by the state of…

Learning-based Text To Speech systems have the potential to generalize from one speaker to the next and thus require a relatively short sample of any new voice. However, this promise is currently largely unrealized. We present a method that…

Speech enhancement models should meet very low latency requirements typically smaller than 5 ms for hearing assistive devices. While various low-latency techniques have been proposed, comparing these methods in a controlled setup using DNNs…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) has transformed speech processing, yet its reliance on massive pre-training datasets remains a bottleneck. While robustness is often attributed to scale and diversity, the role of the data distribution is less…

In this work we present simple grapheme-based system for low-resource speech recognition using Babel data for Turkish spontaneous speech (80 hours). We have investigated different neural network architectures performance, including…
