Most speaker verification tasks are studied as an open-set evaluation scenario considering the real-world condition. Thus, the generalization power to unseen speakers is of paramount important to the performance of the speaker verification…

Speech Emotion Recognition (SER) is crucial for improving human-computer interaction. Despite strides in monolingual SER, extending them to build a multilingual system remains challenging. Our goal is to train a single model capable of…

Deep learning has significantly advanced state-of-the-art of speech recognition in the past few years. However, compared to conventional Gaussian mixture acoustic models, neural network models are usually much larger, and are therefore not…

The generalization capability of deep neural networks has been substantially improved by applying a wide spectrum of regularization methods, e.g., restricting function space, injecting randomness during training, augmenting data, etc. In…

Knowledge distillation is one of the most effective methods for model compression. Previous studies have focused on the student model effectively training the predictive distribution of the teacher model. However, during training, the…

Self-supervised learning has been widely applied to train high-quality vision transformers. Unleashing their excellent performance on memory and compute constraint devices is therefore an important research topic. However, how to distill…

The application of speech self-supervised learning (SSL) models has achieved remarkable performance in speaker verification (SV). However, there is a computational cost hurdle in employing them, which makes development and deployment…

This paper describes our submission to Task 1 of the Short-duration Speaker Verification (SdSV) challenge 2020. Task 1 is a text-dependent speaker verification task, where both the speaker and phrase are required to be verified. The…

Speech denoising is a generally adopted and impactful task, appearing in many common and everyday-life use cases. Although there are very powerful methods published, most of those are too complex for deployment in everyday and low-resources…

Deep learning architectures have shown remarkable results in scene understanding problems, however they exhibit a critical drop of performances when they are required to learn incrementally new tasks without forgetting old ones. This…

Crossmodal knowledge distillation (KD) aims to enhance a unimodal student using a multimodal teacher model. In particular, when the teacher's modalities include the student's, additional complementary information can be exploited to improve…

Knowledge distillation in machine learning is the process of transferring knowledge from a large model called the teacher to a smaller model called the student. Knowledge distillation is one of the techniques to compress the large network…

Knowledge distillation often involves how to define and transfer knowledge from teacher to student effectively. Although recent self-supervised contrastive knowledge achieves the best performance, forcing the network to learn such knowledge…

The x-vector based deep neural network (DNN) embedding systems have demonstrated effectiveness for text-independent speaker verification. This paper presents a multi-task learning architecture for training the speaker embedding DNN with the…

The detection of spoofing speech generated by unseen algorithms remains an unresolved challenge. One reason for the lack of generalization ability is traditional detecting systems follow the binary classification paradigm, which inherently…

Distillation has shown remarkable success in transferring knowledge from a Large Language Model (LLM) teacher to a student LLM. However, current distillation methods require similar tokenizers between the teacher and the student,…

On-policy knowledge distillation has proven effective for language models, yet its application to vision-language models (VLMs) remains underexplored. We observe that standard on-policy distillation can improve a student's output quality…

Standard Knowledge Distillation (KD) compresses Large Language Models (LLMs) by optimizing final outputs, yet it typically treats the teacher's intermediate layer's thought process as a black box. While feature-based distillation attempts…

This work introduces a novel knowledge distillation framework for classification tasks where information on existing subclasses is available and taken into consideration. In classification tasks with a small number of classes or binary…

Audio token modeling has become a powerful framework for speech synthesis, with two-stage approaches employing semantic tokens remaining prevalent. In this paper, we aim to simplify this process by introducing a semantic knowledge…
