Non-autoregressive (NAR) models have achieved a large inference computation reduction and comparable results with autoregressive (AR) models on various sequence to sequence tasks. However, there has been limited research aiming to explore…

The goal of this paper is to develop state-of-the-art models for lip reading -- visual speech recognition. We develop three architectures and compare their accuracy and training times: (i) a recurrent model using LSTMs; (ii) a fully…

Attention-based sequence-to-sequence models for speech recognition jointly train an acoustic model, language model (LM), and alignment mechanism using a single neural network and require only parallel audio-text pairs. Thus, the language…

Cocktail party problem is the scenario where it is difficult to separate or distinguish individual speaker from a mixed speech from several speakers. There have been several researches going on in this field but the size and complexity of…

We propose a Perceiver-based sequence classifier to detect abnormalities in speech reflective of several neurological disorders. We combine this classifier with a Universal Speech Model (USM) that is trained (unsupervised) on 12 million…

Recent studies highlight the potential of textual modalities in conditioning the speech separation model's inference process. However, regularization-based methods remain underexplored despite their advantages of not requiring auxiliary…

Neural speech separation has made remarkable progress and its integration with automatic speech recognition (ASR) is an important direction towards realizing multi-speaker ASR. This work provides an insightful investigation of speech…

Transformer-based text to speech (TTS) model (e.g., Transformer TTS~\cite{li2019neural}, FastSpeech~\cite{ren2019fastspeech}) has shown the advantages of training and inference efficiency over RNN-based model (e.g.,…

Despite the recent success of speech separation models, they fail to separate sources properly while facing different sets of people or noisy environments. To tackle this problem, we proposed to apply meta-learning to the speech separation…

We propose a separation guided speaker diarization (SGSD) approach by fully utilizing a complementarity of speech separation and speaker clustering. Since the conventional clustering-based speaker diarization (CSD) approach cannot well…

We propose a fully convolutional sequence-to-sequence encoder architecture with a simple and efficient decoder. Our model improves WER on LibriSpeech while being an order of magnitude more efficient than a strong RNN baseline. Key to our…

This paper proposes a neural network based speech separation method using spatially distributed microphones. Unlike with traditional microphone array settings, neither the number of microphones nor their spatial arrangement is known in…

This paper describes a system that generates speaker-annotated transcripts of meetings by using a microphone array and a 360-degree camera. The hallmark of the system is its ability to handle overlapped speech, which has been an unsolved…

Attention layers are an integral part of modern end-to-end automatic speech recognition systems, for instance as part of the Transformer or Conformer architecture. Attention is typically multi-headed, where each head has an independent set…

In conversational speech separation and recognition tasks, close-talk microphones are typically attached to each speaker during training data collection to capture near-field, close-talk mixture signals, in addition to using far-field…

Recently, Conformer as a backbone network for end-to-end automatic speech recognition achieved state-of-the-art performance. The Conformer block leverages a self-attention mechanism to capture global information, along with a convolutional…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) is a powerful technique for learning representations from unlabeled data. Transformer based models such as HuBERT, which consist a feature extractor and transformer layers, are leading the field in the speech…

Speaker-conditioned target speaker extraction systems rely on auxiliary information about the target speaker to extract the target speaker signal from a mixture of multiple speakers. Typically, a deep neural network is applied to isolate…

Traditional speech separation and speaker diarization approaches rely on prior knowledge of target speakers or a predetermined number of participants in audio signals. To address these limitations, recent advances focus on developing…

Recently, several types of end-to-end speech recognition methods named transformer-transducer were introduced. According to those kinds of methods, transcription networks are generally modeled by transformer-based neural networks, while…
