The goal of this work is to develop a meeting transcription system that can recognize speech even when utterances of different speakers are overlapped. While speech overlaps have been regarded as a major obstacle in accurately transcribing…

Conformer-based models have become the dominant end-to-end architecture for speech processing tasks. With the objective of enhancing the conformer architecture for efficient training and inference, we carefully redesigned Conformer with a…

We explore options to use Transformer networks in neural transducer for end-to-end speech recognition. Transformer networks use self-attention for sequence modeling and comes with advantages in parallel computation and capturing contexts.…

Target speaker extraction aims at extracting the target speaker from a mixture of multiple speakers exploiting auxiliary information about the target speaker. In this paper, we consider a complete time-domain target speaker extraction…

The recently proposed Conformer architecture has shown state-of-the-art performances in Automatic Speech Recognition by combining convolution with attention to model both local and global dependencies. In this paper, we study how to reduce…

Source separation can improve automatic speech recognition (ASR) under multi-party meeting scenarios by extracting single-speaker signals from overlapped speech. Despite the success of self-supervised learning models in single-channel…

This paper addresses the problem of single-channel speech separation, where the number of speakers is unknown, and each speaker may speak multiple utterances. We propose a speech separation model that simultaneously performs separation,…

In this paper, we present the Blind Speech Separation and Dereverberation (BSSD) network, which performs simultaneous speaker separation, dereverberation and speaker identification in a single neural network. Speaker separation is guided by…

We propose a method of segmenting long-form speech by separating semantically complete sentences within the utterance. This prevents the ASR decoder from needlessly processing faraway context while also preventing it from missing relevant…

Despite the recent success of deep learning for many speech processing tasks, single-microphone, speaker-independent speech separation remains challenging for two main reasons. The first reason is the arbitrary order of the target and…

We propose multi-microphone complex spectral mapping, a simple way of applying deep learning for time-varying non-linear beamforming, for speaker separation in reverberant conditions. We aim at both speaker separation and dereverberation.…

Transformer has shown advanced performance in speech separation, benefiting from its ability to capture global features. However, capturing local features and channel information of audio sequences in speech separation is equally important.…

Speaker extraction (SE) aims to segregate the speech of a target speaker from a mixture of interfering speakers with the help of auxiliary information. Several forms of auxiliary information have been employed in single-channel SE, such as…

This paper addresses end-to-end automatic speech recognition (ASR) for long audio recordings such as lecture and conversational speeches. Most end-to-end ASR models are designed to recognize independent utterances, but contextual…

In this work, we present a hybrid CTC/Attention model based on a ResNet-18 and Convolution-augmented transformer (Conformer), that can be trained in an end-to-end manner. In particular, the audio and visual encoders learn to extract…

In recent years there have been many deep learning approaches towards the multi-speaker source separation problem. Most use Long Short-Term Memory - Recurrent Neural Networks (LSTM-RNN) or Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) to model the…

Conformer has proven to be effective in many speech processing tasks. It combines the benefits of extracting local dependencies using convolutions and global dependencies using self-attention. Inspired by this, we propose a more flexible,…

Silent Speech Interfaces (SSIs) have gained attention for their ability to generate intelligible speech from non-acoustic signals. While significant progress has been made in advancing speech generation pipelines, limited work has addressed…

Speech separation remains an important topic for multi-speaker technology researchers. Convolution augmented transformers (conformers) have performed well for many speech processing tasks but have been under-researched for speech…

Neural beamformers, which integrate both pre-separation and beamforming modules, have demonstrated impressive effectiveness in target speech extraction. Nevertheless, the performance of these beamformers is inherently limited by the…
