Generative adversarial network (GAN) still exists some problems in dealing with speech enhancement (SE) task. Some GAN-based systems adopt the same structure from Pixel-to-Pixel directly without special optimization. The importance of the…

Unpaired image-to-image translation has broad applications in art, design, and scientific simulations. One early breakthrough was CycleGAN that emphasizes one-to-one mappings between two unpaired image domains via generative-adversarial…

Human face synthesis and manipulation are increasingly important in entertainment and AI, with a growing demand for highly realistic, identity-preserving images even when only unpaired, unaligned datasets are available. We study unpaired…
