Generative models have thrived in computer vision, enabling unprecedented image processes. Yet the results in audio remain less advanced. Our project targets real-time sound synthesis from a reduced set of high-level parameters, including…

In this article, we study the problem of high-dimensional conditional independence testing, a key building block in statistics and machine learning. We propose an inferential procedure based on double generative adversarial networks (GANs).…

Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have gathered a lot of attention from the computer vision community, yielding impressive results for image generation. Advances in the adversarial generation of natural language from noise however are…

Our voice encodes a uniquely identifiable pattern which can be used to infer private attributes, such as gender or identity, that an individual might wish not to reveal when using a speech recognition service. To prevent attribute inference…

Although recent works on neural vocoder have improved the quality of synthesized audio, there still exists a gap between generated and ground-truth audio in frequency space. This difference leads to spectral artifacts such as hissing noise…

Virtual humans have gained considerable attention in numerous industries, e.g., entertainment and e-commerce. As a core technology, synthesizing photorealistic face frames from target speech and facial identity has been actively studied…

Within the framework of generative adversarial networks (GANs), we propose objectives that task the discriminator for self-supervised representation learning via additional structural modeling responsibilities. In combination with an…

This paper adapts a StyleGAN model for speech generation with minimal or no conditioning on text. StyleGAN is a multi-scale convolutional GAN capable of hierarchically capturing data structure and latent variation on multiple spatial (or…

Adversarial training of end-to-end (E2E) ASR systems using generative adversarial networks (GAN) has recently been explored for low-resource ASR corpora. GANs help to learn the true data representation through a two-player min-max game.…

Several dihedral angles prediction methods were developed for protein structure prediction and their other applications. However, distribution of predicted angles would not be similar to that of real angles. To address this we employed…

We present a method for converting the voices between a set of speakers. Our method is based on training multiple autoencoder paths, where there is a single speaker-independent encoder and multiple speaker-dependent decoders. The…

Speech is a rich biometric signal that contains information about the identity, gender and emotional state of the speaker. In this work, we explore its potential to generate face images of a speaker by conditioning a Generative Adversarial…

I-vector based text-independent speaker verification (SV) systems often have poor performance with short utterances, as the biased phonetic distribution in a short utterance makes the extracted i-vector unreliable. This paper proposes an…

We present a novel high-fidelity real-time neural vocoder called VocGAN. A recently developed GAN-based vocoder, MelGAN, produces speech waveforms in real-time. However, it often produces a waveform that is insufficient in quality or…

We explore pretraining strategies including choice of base corpus with the aim of choosing the best strategy for zero-shot multi-speaker end-to-end synthesis. We also examine choice of neural vocoder for waveform synthesis, as well as…

Influenced by the field of Computer Vision, Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are often adopted for the audio domain using fixed-size two-dimensional spectrogram representations as the "image data". However, in the (musical) audio…

Nowadays vast amounts of speech data are recorded from low-quality recorder devices such as smartphones, tablets, laptops, and medium-quality microphones. The objective of this research was to study the automatic generation of high-quality…

We describe an end-to-end speech synthesis system that uses generative adversarial training. We train our Vocoder for raw phoneme-to-audio conversion, using explicit phonetic, pitch and duration modeling. We experiment with several…

Distant supervision can effectively label data for relation extraction, but suffers from the noise labeling problem. Recent works mainly perform soft bag-level noise reduction strategies to find the relatively better samples in a sentence…

Traditional parametric coding of speech facilitates low rate but provides poor reconstruction quality because of the inadequacy of the model used. We describe how a WaveNet generative speech model can be used to generate high quality speech…
