Various sources have reported the WaveNet deep learning architecture being able to generate high-quality speech, but to our knowledge there haven't been studies on the interpretation or visualization of trained WaveNets. This study…

There are many deterministic mathematical operations (e.g. compression, clipping, downsampling) that degrade speech quality considerably. In this paper we introduce a neural network architecture, based on a modification of the DiffWave…

In this paper, we propose a technique to alleviate the quality degradation caused by collapsed speech segments sometimes generated by the WaveNet vocoder. The effectiveness of the WaveNet vocoder for generating natural speech from acoustic…

Ultrasound tongue imaging (UTI) is a non-invasive and cost-effective tool for studying speech articulation, motor control, and related disorders. However, real-time tongue contour segmentation remains challenging due to low signal-to-noise…

Speech data collected in real-world scenarios often encounters two issues. First, multiple sources may exist simultaneously, and the number of sources may vary with time. Second, the existence of background noise in recording is inevitable.…

In real acoustic environment, speech enhancement is an arduous task to improve the quality and intelligibility of speech interfered by background noise and reverberation. Over the past years, deep learning has shown great potential on…

Traditional denoising methods for noise removal have largely relied on handcrafted priors, often perform well in controlled environments but struggle to address the complexity and variability of real noise. In contrast, deep learning-based…

Deep learning based solutions are being succesfully implemented for a wide variety of applications. Most notably, clinical use-cases have gained an increased interest and have been the main driver behind some of the cutting-edge data-driven…

We have presented a new and alternative algorithm for noise reduction using the methods of discrete wavelet transform and numerical differentiation of the data. In our method the threshold for reducing noise comes out automatically. The…

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…

While the use of deep neural networks has significantly boosted speaker recognition performance, it is still challenging to separate speakers in poor acoustic environments. To improve robustness of speaker recognition system performance in…

Speech 'in-the-wild' is a handicap for speaker recognition systems due to the variability induced by real-life conditions, such as environmental noise and the emotional state of the speaker. Taking advantage of the principles of…

In this paper, we propose an online speaker adaptation method for WaveNet-based neural vocoders in order to improve their performance on speaker-independent waveform generation. In this method, a speaker encoder is first constructed using a…

Auditory attention decoding (AAD) is the process of identifying the attended speech in a multi-talker environment using brain signals, typically recorded through electroencephalography (EEG). Over the past decade, AAD has undergone…

Training personalized speech enhancement models is innately a no-shot learning problem due to privacy constraints and limited access to noise-free speech from the target user. If there is an abundance of unlabeled noisy speech from the…

High quality speech capture has been widely studied for both voice communication and human computer interface reasons. To improve the capture performance, we can often find multi-microphone speech enhancement techniques deployed on various…

Acoustic scene classification is an intricate problem for a machine. As an emerging field of research, deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) achieve convincing results. In this paper, we explore the use of multi-scale Dense connected…

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,…

The quality of audio recordings in outdoor environments is often degraded by the presence of wind. Mitigating the impact of wind noise on the perceptual quality of single-channel speech remains a significant challenge due to its…

In this paper, we introduce a spectral-domain inverse filtering approach for single-channel speech de-reverberation using deep convolutional neural network (CNN). The main goal is to better handle realistic reverberant conditions where the…
