Training of speech enhancement systems often does not incorporate knowledge of human perception and thus can lead to unnatural sounding results. Incorporating psychoacoustically motivated speech perception metrics as part of model training…

Adversarial loss in a conditional generative adversarial network (GAN) is not designed to directly optimize evaluation metrics of a target task, and thus, may not always guide the generator in a GAN to generate data with improved metric…

The Transformer architecture has demonstrated a superior ability compared to recurrent neural networks in many different natural language processing applications. Therefore, our study applies a modified Transformer in a speech enhancement…

Most of the deep learning-based speech enhancement models are learned in a supervised manner, which implies that pairs of noisy and clean speech are required during training. Consequently, several noisy speeches recorded in daily life…

To obtain improved speech enhancement models, researchers often focus on increasing performance according to specific instrumental metrics. However, when the same metric is used in a loss function to optimize models, it may be detrimental…

The intelligibility of natural speech is seriously degraded when exposed to adverse noisy environments. In this work, we propose a deep learning-based speech modification method to compensate for the intelligibility loss, with the…

Neural network based approaches to speech enhancement have shown to be particularly powerful, being able to leverage a data-driven approach to result in a significant performance gain versus other approaches. Such approaches are reliant on…

Speech enhancement aims to obtain speech signals with high intelligibility and quality from noisy speech. Recent work has demonstrated the excellent performance of time-domain deep learning methods, such as Conv-TasNet. However, these…

Utilizing a human-perception-related objective function to train a speech enhancement model has become a popular topic recently. The main reason is that the conventional mean squared error (MSE) loss cannot represent auditory perception…

Speech enhancement techniques based on deep learning have brought significant improvement on speech quality and intelligibility. Nevertheless, a large gain in speech quality measured by objective metrics, such as perceptual evaluation of…

For a speech-enhancement algorithm, it is highly desirable to simultaneously improve perceptual quality and recognition rate. Thanks to computational costs and model complexities, it is challenging to train a model that effectively…

Perceptually-inspired objective functions such as the perceptual evaluation of speech quality (PESQ), signal-to-distortion ratio (SDR), and short-time objective intelligibility (STOI), have recently been used to optimize performance of…

Recent work has shown that it is feasible to use generative adversarial networks (GANs) for speech enhancement, however, these approaches have not been compared to state-of-the-art (SOTA) non GAN-based approaches. Additionally, many loss…

Generative adversarial networks (GAN) have recently been shown to be efficient for speech enhancement. However, most, if not all, existing speech enhancement GANs (SEGAN) make use of a single generator to perform one-stage enhancement…

Recently, convolution-augmented transformer (Conformer) has achieved promising performance in automatic speech recognition (ASR) and time-domain speech enhancement (SE), as it can capture both local and global dependencies in the speech…
