Articulatory-to-acoustic (forward) mapping is a technique to predict speech using various articulatory acquisition techniques (e.g. ultrasound tongue imaging, lip video). Real-time MRI (rtMRI) of the vocal tract has not been used before for…

The problem of identifying voice commands has always been a challenge due to the presence of noise and variability in speed, pitch, etc. We will compare the efficacies of several neural network architectures for the speech recognition…

We propose BeamTransformer, an efficient architecture to leverage beamformer's edge in spatial filtering and transformer's capability in context sequence modeling. BeamTransformer seeks to optimize modeling of sequential relationship among…

This paper presents an experimental study on deep speaker embedding with an attention mechanism that has been found to be a powerful representation learning technique in speaker recognition. In this framework, an attention model works as a…

Separating target speech from mixed signals containing flexible speaker quantities presents a challenging task. While existing methods demonstrate strong separation performance and noise robustness, they predominantly assume prior knowledge…

Deep neural networks have shown recent promise in many language-related tasks such as the modeling of conversations. We extend RNN-based sequence to sequence models to capture the long range discourse across many turns of conversation. We…

Target speech separation refers to extracting the target speaker's speech from mixed signals. Despite the recent advances in deep learning based close-talk speech separation, the applications to real-world are still an open issue. Two main…

Audio captioning aims at describing the content of audio clips with human language. Due to the ambiguity of audio, different people may perceive the same audio differently, resulting in caption disparities (i.e., one audio may correlate to…

In a multi-channel separation task with multiple speakers, we aim to recover all individual speech signals from the mixture. In contrast to single-channel approaches, which rely on the different spectro-temporal characteristics of the…

Speaker Diarization (SD) consists of splitting or segmenting an input audio burst according to speaker identities. In this paper, we focus on the crucial task of the SD problem which is the audio segmenting process and suggest a solution…

Since the first speech recognition systems were built more than 30 years ago, improvement in voice technology has enabled applications such as smart assistants and automated customer support. However, conversation intelligence of the future…

Speaker embedding has been a fundamental feature for speaker-related tasks such as verification, clustering, and diarization. Traditionally, speaker embeddings are represented as fixed vectors in high-dimensional space. This could lead to…

In multichannel signal processing with distributed sensors, choosing the optimal subset of observed sensor signals to be exploited is crucial in order to maximize algorithmic performance and reduce computational load, ideally both at the…

Conversational modeling is an important task in natural language understanding and machine intelligence. Although previous approaches exist, they are often restricted to specific domains (e.g., booking an airline ticket) and require…

This paper proposes to use low-level spatial features extracted from multichannel audio for sound event detection. We extend the convolutional recurrent neural network to handle more than one type of these multichannel features by learning…

Speaker identification systems in a real-world scenario are tasked to identify a speaker amongst a set of enrolled speakers given just a few samples for each enrolled speaker. This paper demonstrates the effectiveness of meta-learning and…

This paper proposes an online target speaker voice activity detection system for speaker diarization tasks, which does not require a priori knowledge from the clustering-based diarization system to obtain the target speaker embeddings. By…

This paper proposes a human-in-the-loop speaker-adaptation method for multi-speaker text-to-speech. With a conventional speaker-adaptation method, a target speaker's embedding vector is extracted from his/her reference speech using a…

In this paper, we propose a stacked convolutional and recurrent neural network (CRNN) with a 3D convolutional neural network (CNN) in the first layer for the multichannel sound event detection (SED) task. The 3D CNN enables the network to…

Multi-agent reinforcement learning has been used as an effective means to study emergent communication between agents, yet little focus has been given to continuous acoustic communication. This would be more akin to human language…
