The recent advances in the field of deep learning have not been fully utilised for decoding imagined speech primarily because of the unavailability of sufficient training samples to train a deep network. In this paper, we present a novel…

In speech enhancement, the lack of clear structural characteristics in the target speech phase requires the use of conservative and cumbersome network frameworks. It seems difficult to achieve competitive performance using direct methods…

Automatic meeting analysis is an essential fundamental technology required to let, e.g. smart devices follow and respond to our conversations. To achieve an optimal automatic meeting analysis, we previously proposed an all-neural approach…

Speaker localization in a reverberant environment is a fundamental problem in audio signal processing. Many solutions have been developed to tackle this problem. However, previous algorithms typically assume a stationary environment in…

Label noise is emerging as a pressing issue in sound event classification. This arises as we move towards larger datasets that are difficult to annotate manually, but it is even more severe if datasets are collected automatically from…

Dereverberation of recorded speech signals is one of the most pertinent problems in speech processing. In the present work, the objective is to understand and implement dereverberation techniques that aim at enhancing the magnitude…

A key task for speech recognition systems is to reduce the mismatch between training and evaluation data that is often attributable to speaker differences. Speaker adaptation techniques play a vital role to reduce the mismatch. Model-based…

In traditional speaker diarization systems, a well-trained speaker model is a key component to extract representations from consecutive and partially overlapping segments in a long speech session. To be more consistent with the back-end…

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…
