Speech super-resolution (SR) is a task to increase speech sampling rate by generating high-frequency components. Existing speech SR methods are trained in constrained experimental settings, such as a fixed upsampling ratio. These strong…

Sequential models achieve state-of-the-art results in audio, visual and textual domains with respect to both estimating the data distribution and generating high-quality samples. Efficient sampling for this class of models has however…

The traditional vocoders have the advantages of high synthesis efficiency, strong interpretability, and speech editability, while the neural vocoders have the advantage of high synthesis quality. To combine the advantages of two vocoders,…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) has advanced speech processing. However, existing speech SSL methods typically assume a single sampling rate and struggle with mixed-rate data due to temporal resolution mismatch. To address this limitation,…

Recently, neural vocoders have been widely used in speech synthesis tasks, including text-to-speech and voice conversion. However, when encountering data distribution mismatch between training and inference, neural vocoders trained on real…

Multi-speaker singing voice synthesis is to generate the singing voice sung by different speakers. To generalize to new speakers, previous zero-shot singing adaptation methods obtain the timbre of the target speaker with a fixed-size…

Neural Radiance Field (NeRF) has shown impressive performance in novel view synthesis via implicit scene representation. However, it usually suffers from poor scalability as requiring densely sampled images for each new scene. Several…

Speaker verification aims to verify whether an input speech corresponds to the claimed speaker, and conventionally, this kind of system is deployed based on single-stream scenario, wherein the feature extractor operates in full frequency…

Purely neural network (NN) based speech separation and enhancement methods, although can achieve good objective scores, inevitably cause nonlinear speech distortions that are harmful for the automatic speech recognition (ASR). On the other…
