A wireless acoustic sensor network records audio signals with sampling time and sampling rate offsets between the audio streams, if the analog-digital converters (ADCs) of the network devices are not synchronized. Here, we introduce a new…

Deep neural network based speech enhancement approaches aim to learn a noisy-to-clean transformation using a supervised learning paradigm. However, such a trained-well transformation is vulnerable to unseen noises that are not included in…

Most speech enhancement algorithms make use of the short-time Fourier transform (STFT), which is a simple and flexible time-frequency decomposition that estimates the short-time spectrum of a signal. However, the duration of short STFT…

A promising approach for multi-microphone speech separation involves two deep neural networks (DNN), where the predicted target speech from the first DNN is used to compute signal statistics for time-invariant minimum variance…

Dementia is a growing problem as our society ages, and detection methods are often invasive and expensive. Recent deep-learning techniques can offer a faster diagnosis and have shown promising results. However, they require large amounts of…

A fundamental challenge in neuroscience is to understand what structure in the world is represented in spatially distributed patterns of neural activity from multiple single-trial measurements. This is often accomplished by learning a…

Recently, deep neural networks (DNNs) have been successfully used for speech enhancement, and DNN-based speech enhancement is becoming an attractive research area. While time-frequency masking based on the short-time Fourier transform…

Along with the prosperity of generative artificial intelligence (AI), its potential for solving conventional challenges in wireless communications has also surfaced. Inspired by this trend, we investigate the application of the advanced…

Automatic speech recognition in reverberant conditions is a challenging task as the long-term envelopes of the reverberant speech are temporally smeared. In this paper, we propose a neural model for enhancement of sub-band temporal…

Speech systems developed for a particular choice of acoustic domain and sampling frequency do not translate easily to others. The usual practice is to learn domain adaptation and bandwidth extension models independently. Contrary to this,…

Deep neural networks (DNNs) are widely used in pattern-recognition tasks for which a human comprehensible, quantitative description of the data-generating process, e.g., in the form of equations, cannot be achieved. While doing so, DNNs…

This paper addresses the challenge of efficiently capturing a high proportion of true signals for subsequent data analyses when sample sizes are relatively limited with respect to data dimension. We propose the signal missing rate as a new…

In this thesis, we present a new method for designing multirate signal processing and digital communication systems via sampled-data H-infinity control theory. The difference between our method and conventional ones is in the signal spaces.…

Speech enhancement attenuates interfering sounds in speech signals but may introduce artifacts that perceivably deteriorate the output signal. We propose a method for controlling the trade-off between the attenuation of the interfering…

In this paper, we propose to utilise diffusion models for data augmentation in speech emotion recognition (SER). In particular, we present an effective approach to utilise improved denoising diffusion probabilistic models (IDDPM) to…

The reconstruction of clipped speech signals is an important task in audio signal processing to achieve an enhanced audio quality for further processing. In this paper, Frequency Selective Extrapolation (FSE), which is commonly used for…

The use of synthetic speech as data augmentation is gaining increasing popularity in fields such as automatic speech recognition and speech classification tasks. Despite novel text-to-speech systems with voice cloning capabilities, that…

In the context of neural machine translation, data augmentation (DA) techniques may be used for generating additional training samples when the available parallel data are scarce. Many DA approaches aim at expanding the support of the…

In order to reduce overfitting, neural networks are typically trained with data augmentation, the practice of artificially generating additional training data via label-preserving transformations of existing training examples. While these…

We propose a spatial diffuseness feature for deep neural network (DNN)-based automatic speech recognition to improve recognition accuracy in reverberant and noisy environments. The feature is computed in real-time from multiple microphone…
