Noisy situations cause huge problems for suffers of hearing loss as hearing aids often make the signal more audible but do not always restore the intelligibility. In noisy settings, humans routinely exploit the audio-visual (AV) nature of…

This paper evaluates the effectiveness of a Cycle-GAN based voice converter (VC) on four speaker identification (SID) systems and an automated speech recognition (ASR) system for various purposes. Audio samples converted by the VC model are…

Convolutional neural networks are sensitive to unknown noisy condition in the test phase and so their performance degrades for the noisy data classification task including noisy speech recognition. In this research, a new convolutional…

Intro: Vocal cord ultrasound (VCUS) has emerged as a less invasive and better tolerated examination technique, but its accuracy is operator dependent. This research aims to apply a machine learning-assisted algorithm to automatically…

Overlapped speech detection (OSD) is critical for speech applications in scenario of multi-party conversion. Despite numerous research efforts and progresses, comparing with speech activity detection (VAD), OSD remains an open challenge and…

We present MarbleNet, an end-to-end neural network for Voice Activity Detection (VAD). MarbleNet is a deep residual network composed from blocks of 1D time-channel separable convolution, batch-normalization, ReLU and dropout layers. When…

Personal Voice Activity Detection (PVAD) is crucial for identifying target speaker segments in the mixture, yet its performance heavily depends on the quality of speaker embeddings. A key practical limitation is the short enrollment…

In many VoIP systems, Voice Activity Detection (VAD) is often used on VoIP traffic to suppress packets of silence in order to reduce the bandwidth consumption of phone calls. Unfortunately, although VoIP traffic is fully encrypted and…

In this paper, we focus on audio violence detection (AVD). AVD is necessary for several reasons, especially in the context of maintaining safety, preventing harm, and ensuring security in various environments. This calls for accurate AVD…

Outbound AI calling systems must distinguish voicemail greetings from live human answers in real time to avoid wasted agent interactions and dropped calls. We present a lightweight approach that extracts 15 temporal features from the speech…

Conventional audio-visual approaches for active speaker detection (ASD) typically rely on visually pre-extracted face tracks and the corresponding single-channel audio to find the speaker in a video. Therefore, they tend to fail every time…

In this research, we present an innovative, parameter-efficient model that utilizes the attention U-Net architecture for the automatic detection and eradication of non-speech vocal sounds, specifically breath sounds, in vocal recordings.…

Reverberation not only degrades the quality of speech for human perception, but also severely impacts the accuracy of automatic speech recognition. Prior work attempts to remove reverberation based on the audio modality only. Our idea is to…

Automatic speech recognition systems are part of people's daily lives, embedded in personal assistants and mobile phones, helping as a facilitator for human-machine interaction while allowing access to information in a practically intuitive…

Sound event detection (SED) is a task to detect sound events in an audio recording. One challenge of the SED task is that many datasets such as the Detection and Classification of Acoustic Scenes and Events (DCASE) datasets are weakly…

Anomalous sound detection (ASD) is, nowadays, one of the topical subjects in machine listening discipline. Unsupervised detection is attracting a lot of interest due to its immediate applicability in many fields. For example, related to…

As a versatile AI application, voice assistants (VAs) have become increasingly popular, but are vulnerable to security threats. Attackers have proposed various inaudible attacks, but are limited by cost, distance, or LoS. Therefore, we…

Speech enhancement (SE) aims to reduce noise in speech signals. Most SE techniques focus only on addressing audio information. In this work, inspired by multimodal learning, which utilizes data from different modalities, and the recent…
