Many deep learning-based speech enhancement algorithms are designed to minimize the mean-square error (MSE) in some transform domain between a predicted and a target speech signal. However, optimizing for MSE does not necessarily guarantee…

Advances in automatic speaker verification (ASV) promote research into the formulation of spoofing detection systems for real-world applications. The performance of ASV systems can be degraded severely by multiple types of spoofing attacks,…

As the performance of single-channel speech separation systems has improved, there has been a desire to move to more challenging conditions than the clean, near-field speech that initial systems were developed on. When training deep…

Research on automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems for electrolaryngeal speakers has been relatively unexplored due to small datasets. When training data is lacking in ASR, a large-scale pretraining and fine tuning framework is often…

Singing voice synthesis (SVS) has seen remarkable advancements in recent years. However, compared to speech and general audio data, publicly available singing datasets remain limited. In practice, this data scarcity often leads to…

Progress in automatic chord recognition has been slow since the advent of deep learning in the field. To understand why, I conduct experiments on existing methods and test hypotheses enabled by recent developments in generative models.…

Deep learning technology has been widely applied to speech enhancement. While testing the effectiveness of various network structures, researchers are also exploring the improvement of the loss function used in network training. Although…

When human listeners try to guess the spatial position of a speech source, they are influenced by the speaker's production level, regardless of the intensity level reaching their ears. Because the perception of distance is a very difficult…

The prosody of a spoken word is determined by its surrounding context. In incremental text-to-speech synthesis, where the synthesizer produces an output before it has access to the complete input, the full context is often unknown which can…

This paper focuses on the problem of pitch tracking in noisy conditions. A method using harmonic information in the residual signal is presented. The proposed criterion is used both for pitch estimation, as well as for determining the…

While modern Text-to-Speech (TTS) systems can produce natural-sounding speech, they remain unable to reproduce the full diversity found in natural speech data. We consider the distribution of all possible real speech samples that could be…

Music information retrieval distinguishes between low- and high-level descriptions of music. Current generative AI models rely on text descriptions that are higher level than the controls familiar to studio musicians. Pitch strength, a…

Methods that can generate synthetic speech which is perceptually indistinguishable from speech recorded by a human speaker, are easily available. Several incidents report misuse of synthetic speech generated from these methods to commit…

Audio events are quite often overlapping in nature, and more prone to noise than visual signals. There has been increasing evidence for the superior performance of representations learned using sparse dictionaries for applications like…

State-of-the-art anomalous sound detection systems often utilize angular margin losses to learn suitable representations of acoustic data using an auxiliary task, which usually is a supervised or self-supervised classification task. The…

In linear distance metric learning, we are given data in one Euclidean metric space and the goal is to find an appropriate linear map to another Euclidean metric space which respects certain distance conditions as much as possible. In this…

Dysarthria is a speech disorder characterized by impaired intelligibility and reduced communicative effectiveness. Automatic dysarthria assessment provides a scalable, cost-effective approach for supporting the diagnosis and treatment of…

Supervised learning is a mainstream approach to audio signal enhancement (SE) and requires parallel training data consisting of both noisy signals and the corresponding clean signals. Such data can only be synthesised and are mismatched…

In mobile speech communication applications, wind noise can lead to a severe reduction of speech quality and intelligibility. Since the performance of speech enhancement algorithms using acoustic microphones tends to substantially degrade…

Since its conception, digital synthesis has significantly influenced the advancement of music, leading to new genres and production styles. Through existing synthesis techniques, one can recreate naturally occurring sounds as well as…
