Keyword spotting accuracy degrades when neural networks are exposed to noisy environments. On-site adaptation to previously unseen noise is crucial to recovering accuracy loss, and on-device learning is required to ensure that the…

It is critical for a keyword spotting model to have a small footprint as it typically runs on-device with low computational resources. However, maintaining the previous SOTA performance with reduced model size is challenging. In addition, a…

In real-life applications, the performance of speaker recognition systems always degrades when there is a mismatch between training and evaluation data. Many domain adaptation methods have been successfully used for eliminating the domain…

End-to-end deep learning language or dialect identification systems operate on the spectrogram or other acoustic feature and directly generate identification scores for each class. An important issue for end-to-end systems is to have some…

Speaker recognition systems based on deep speaker embeddings have achieved significant performance in controlled conditions according to the results obtained for early NIST SRE (Speaker Recognition Evaluation) datasets. From the practical…

Deep Learning has greatly advanced the performance of semantic segmentation, however, its success relies on the availability of large amounts of annotated data for training. Hence, many efforts have been devoted to domain adaptive semantic…

Wake word (WW) spotting is challenging in far-field not only because of the interference in signal transmission but also the complexity in acoustic environments. Traditional WW model training requires large amount of in-domain WW-specific…

Dysarthric speech detection (DSD) systems aim to detect characteristics of the neuromotor disorder from speech. Such systems are particularly susceptible to domain mismatch where the training and testing data come from the source and target…

Existing transfer learning-based beam prediction approaches primarily rely on simple fine-tuning. When there is a significant difference in data distribution between the target domain and the source domain, simple fine-tuning limits the…
