Audio source separation is the process of separating a mixture (e.g. a pop band recording) into isolated sounds from individual sources (e.g. just the lead vocals). Deep learning models are the state-of-the-art in source separation, given…

We introduce Wavesplit, an end-to-end source separation system. From a single mixture, the model infers a representation for each source and then estimates each source signal given the inferred representations. The model is trained to…

Beamforming is a signal processing technique. It has been studied in many areas such as radar, sonar, seismology and wireless communications, to name but a few. It can be used for a myriad of purposes, such as detecting the presence of a…

Emulating the human ability to solve the cocktail party problem, i.e., focus on a source of interest in a complex acoustic scene, is a long standing goal of audio source separation research. Much of this research investigates separating…

Source separation is a fundamental task in speech, music, and audio processing, and it also provides cleaner and larger data for training generative models. However, improving separation performance in practice often depends on increasingly…

In this paper, the concept of an adaptation algorithm is proposed, which can be used to blindly adapt the microphone array geometry of a humanoid robot such that the performance of the underlying signal separation algorithm is improved. As…

Anomalous sound detection (ASD) in the wild requires robustness to distribution shifts such as unseen low-SNR input mixtures of machine and noise types. State-of-the-art systems extract embeddings from an adapted audio encoder and detect…

Intelligent reflecting surface (IRS) has recently been emerging as an enabler for smart radio environment in which passive antenna arrays can be used to actively tailor/control the radio propagation. With multiple IRSs being launched to…

Programmable metasurfaces and adjustable antennas are promising technologies. The security of a rotatable array system is investigated in this paper. A dual-base-station (BS) architecture is adopted, in which the BSs collaboratively perform…

Confining sound is of significant importance for the manipulation and routing acoustic waves. We propose a Helmholtz resonator (HR) based subwavelength sound channel formed at the interface of two metamaterials, for this purpose. The…

Voice-controlled house-hold devices, like Amazon Echo or Google Home, face the problem of performing speech recognition of device-directed speech in the presence of interfering background speech, i.e., background noise and interfering…

Current research in robotic sounds generally focuses on either masking the consequential sound produced by the robot or on sonifying data about the robot to create a synthetic robot sound. We propose to capture, modify, and utilise rather…

A new learning algorithm for speech separation networks is designed to explicitly reduce residual noise and artifacts in the separated signal in an unsupervised manner. Generative adversarial networks are known to be effective in…

Abstract While vision-based localization techniques have been widely studied for small autonomous unmanned vehicles (SAUVs), sound-source localization capabilities have not been fully enabled for SAUVs. This paper presents two novel…

The emergence of voice-assistant devices ushers in delightful user experiences not just on the smart home front, but also in diverse educational environments from classrooms to personalized-learning/tutoring. However, the use of voice as an…

In general, multi-channel source separation has utilized inter-microphone phase differences (IPDs) concatenated with magnitude information in time-frequency domain, or real and imaginary components stacked along the channel axis. However,…

We present a unified model capable of simultaneously grounding both spoken language and non-speech sounds within a visual scene, addressing key limitations in current audio-visual grounding models. Existing approaches are typically limited…

In cluttered environments where visual sensors encounter heavy occlusion, such as in agricultural settings, tactile signals can provide crucial spatial information for the robot to locate rigid objects and maneuver around them. We introduce…

This paper addresses the problem of single-channel speech separation, where the number of speakers is unknown, and each speaker may speak multiple utterances. We propose a speech separation model that simultaneously performs separation,…

In state-of-the-art wireless networks, the radio environment is beyond the control of the operators which leads to several issues. For example, signal attenuation limits radio connectivity, multi-path propagation results in fading phenomena…
