Selection combining (SC) at the destination for differential amplify-and-forward (AF) relaying is attractive as it does not require channel state information as compared to the semi maximum-ratio-combining (semi-MRC) while delivering close…

Recent advances in generating synthetic captions based on audio and related metadata allow using the information contained in natural language as input for other audio tasks. In this paper, we propose a novel method to guide a sound event…

A smoothing algorithm is presented for solving the soft-margin Support Vector Machine (SVM) optimization problem with an $\ell^{1}$ penalty. This algorithm is designed to require a modest number of passes over the data, which is an…

Score Distillation Sampling (SDS) is a recent but already widely popular method that relies on an image diffusion model to control optimization problems using text prompts. In this paper, we conduct an in-depth analysis of the SDS loss…

In this work, we conduct an in-depth analysis of two frequency-dependent methods for sound event detection (SED): FilterAugment and frequency dynamic convolution (FDY conv). The goal is to better understand their characteristics and…

The softmax-based loss functions and its variants (e.g., cosface, sphereface, and arcface) significantly improve the face recognition performance in wild unconstrained scenes. A common practice of these algorithms is to perform…

We introduce a novel nonlinear model, Sparse Adaptive Bottleneck Centroid-Encoder (SABCE), for determining the features that discriminate between two or more classes. The algorithm aims to extract discriminatory features in groups while…

Recent advances in the Active Speaker Detection (ASD) problem build upon a two-stage process: feature extraction and spatio-temporal context aggregation. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end ASD workflow where feature learning and…

Deep learning models have become an increasingly preferred option for biometric recognition systems, such as speaker recognition. SincNet, a deep neural network architecture, gained popularity in speaker recognition tasks due to its…

Over the recent years, various deep learning-based methods were proposed for extracting a fixed-dimensional embedding vector from speech signals. Although the deep learning-based embedding extraction methods have shown good performance in…

Multi-channel speech enhancement with ad-hoc sensors has been a challenging task. Speech model guided beamforming algorithms are able to recover natural sounding speech, but the speech models tend to be oversimplified or the inference would…

In this paper, we present a deep learning framework applied for Acoustic Scene Classification (ASC), the task of classifying scene contexts from environmental input sounds. An ASC system generally comprises of two main steps, referred to as…

Audio-visual speech enhancement system is regarded to be one of promising solutions for isolating and enhancing speech of desired speaker. Conventional methods focus on predicting clean speech spectrum via a naive convolution neural network…

Integrating front-end speech enhancement (SE) models with self-supervised learning (SSL)-based speech models is effective for downstream tasks in noisy conditions. SE models are commonly fine-tuned using SSL representations with mean…

Scene recognition, particularly for aerial and underwater images, often suffers from various types of degradation, such as blurring or overexposure. Previous works that focus on convolutional neural networks have been shown to be able to…

Anomalous sound detection (ASD) is the task of identifying whether the sound emitted from an object is normal or anomalous. In some cases, early detection of this anomaly can prevent several problems. This article presents a Systematic…

Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD), a widely used optimization algorithm in deep learning, is often limited to converging to local optima due to the non-convex nature of the problem. Leveraging these local optima to improve model performance…

We consider the problem of safely coordinating ensembles of identical autonomous agents to conduct complex missions with conflicting safety requirements and under noisy control inputs. Using non-smooth control barrier functions (CBFs) and…

Finding semantic correspondences is a challenging problem. With the breakthrough of CNNs stronger features are available for tasks like classification but not specifically for the requirements of semantic matching. In the following we…

Contextual representation models have achieved great success in improving various downstream tasks. However, these language-model-based encoders are difficult to train due to the large parameter sizes and high computational complexity. By…
