The rapid advancement of AI has enabled highly realistic speech synthesis and voice cloning, posing serious risks to voice authentication, smart assistants, and telecom security. While most prior work frames spoof detection as a binary…

The goal of this work is to generate natural speech in multiple languages while maintaining the same speaker identity, a task known as cross-lingual speech synthesis. A key challenge of cross-lingual speech synthesis is the language-speaker…

With the development of speech synthesis, recent research has focused on challenging tasks, such as speaker generation and emotion intensity control. Attribute interpolation is a common approach to these tasks. However, most previous…

Recently, counting the number of people for crowd scenes is a hot topic because of its widespread applications (e.g. video surveillance, public security). It is a difficult task in the wild: changeable environment, large-range number of…

Recent strides in neural speech synthesis technologies, while enjoying widespread applications, have nonetheless introduced a series of challenges, spurring interest in the defence against the threat of misuse and abuse. Notably, source…

Prosody modeling is important, but still challenging in expressive voice conversion. As prosody is difficult to model, and other factors, e.g., speaker, environment and content, which are entangled with prosody in speech, should be removed…

High-quality speech dialogue datasets are crucial for Speech-LLM development, yet existing acquisition methods face significant limitations. Human recordings incur high costs and privacy concerns, while synthetic approaches often lack…

Fine-grained editing of speech attributes$\unicode{x2014}$such as prosody (i.e., the pitch, loudness, and phoneme durations), pronunciation, speaker identity, and formants$\unicode{x2014}$is useful for fine-tuning and fixing imperfections…

In recent years, the field of image generation has been revolutionized by the application of autoregressive transformers and DDPMs. These approaches model the process of image generation as a step-wise probabilistic processes and leverage…

Diffusion models have recently shown promising results for difficult enhancement tasks such as the conditional and unconditional restoration of natural images and audio signals. In this work, we explore the possibility of leveraging a…

Given a piece of text, a video clip and a reference audio, the movie dubbing (also known as visual voice clone V2C) task aims to generate speeches that match the speaker's emotion presented in the video using the desired speaker voice as…

Capturing high-level structure in audio waveforms is challenging because a single second of audio spans tens of thousands of timesteps. While long-range dependencies are difficult to model directly in the time domain, we show that they can…

While neural-based text to speech (TTS) models can synthesize natural and intelligible voice, they usually require high-quality speech data, which is costly to collect. In many scenarios, only noisy speech of a target speaker is available,…

Text to Speech (TTS) models can generate natural and high-quality speech, but it is not expressive enough when synthesizing speech with dramatic expressiveness, such as stand-up comedies. Considering comedians have diverse personal speech…

Electronic synthesizer sounds are controlled by parameter settings that yield complex timbral characteristics and ADSR envelopes, making synthesizer-style audio transfer particularly challenging. Recent approaches to timbre transfer often…

While recent advances in Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology produce natural and expressive speech, they lack the option for users to select emotion and control intensity. We propose EmoKnob, a framework that allows fine-grained emotion control…

Although end-to-end text-to-speech (TTS) models such as Tacotron have shown excellent results, they typically require a sizable set of high-quality <text, audio> pairs for training, which are expensive to collect. In this paper, we propose…

Large speech generation models are evolving from single-speaker, short sentence synthesis to multi-speaker, long conversation geneartion. Current long-form speech generation models are predominately constrained to dyadic, turn-based…

Deepfake speech utterances can be forged by replacing one or more words in a bona fide utterance with semantically different words synthesized with speech-generative models. While a dedicated synthetic word detector could be developed, we…

Voice is increasingly being used as a biometric entity in many applications. These range from speaker identification and verification systems to human profiling technologies that attempt to estimate myriad aspects of the speaker's persona…
