In recent decades, neural network based methods have significantly improved the performace of speech enhancement. Most of them estimate time-frequency (T-F) representation of target speech directly or indirectly, then resynthesize waveform…

Influenced by the field of Computer Vision, Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are often adopted for the audio domain using fixed-size two-dimensional spectrogram representations as the "image data". However, in the (musical) audio…

Lack of large, well-annotated emotional speech corpora continues to limit the performance and robustness of speech emotion recognition (SER), particularly as models grow more complex and the demand for multimodal systems increases. While…

Advanced Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) are remarkable in generating intelligible audio from a random latent vector. In this paper, we examine the task of recovering the latent vector of both synthesized and real audio. Previous…

Speech synthesis is used in a wide variety of industries. Nonetheless, it always sounds flat or robotic. The state of the art methods that allow for prosody control are very cumbersome to use and do not allow easy tuning. To tackle some of…

Recent advances in neural network -based text-to-speech have reached human level naturalness in synthetic speech. The present sequence-to-sequence models can directly map text to mel-spectrogram acoustic features, which are convenient for…

We propose Universal MelGAN, a vocoder that synthesizes high-fidelity speech in multiple domains. To preserve sound quality when the MelGAN-based structure is trained with a dataset of hundreds of speakers, we added multi-resolution…

In this paper we address the instability issue of generative adversarial network (GAN) by proposing a new similarity metric in unitary space of Schur decomposition for 2D representations of audio and speech signals. We show that encoding…

Recently Convolution-augmented Transformer (Conformer) has shown promising results in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), outperforming the previous best published Transformer Transducer. In this work, we believe that the output information…

This paper proposes voicing-aware conditional discriminators for Parallel WaveGAN-based waveform synthesis systems. In this framework, we adopt a projection-based conditioning method that can significantly improve the discriminator's…

In this paper, we address the challenge of speech enhancement in real-world recordings, which often contain various forms of distortion, such as background noise, reverberation, and microphone artifacts. We revisit the use of Generative…

Steady-state visual evoked potentials (SSVEPs) based brain-computer interface (BCI) has received considerable attention due to its high information transfer rate (ITR) and available quantity of targets. However, the performance of frequency…

In this paper we demonstrate spoken speech enhancement using electroencephalography (EEG) signals using a generative adversarial network (GAN) based model, gated recurrent unit (GRU) regression based model, temporal convolutional network…

Phase information has a significant impact on speech perceptual quality and intelligibility. However, existing speech enhancement methods encounter limitations in explicit phase estimation due to the non-structural nature and wrapping…

Finding synthetic artifacts of spoofing data will help the anti-spoofing countermeasures (CMs) system discriminate between spoofed and real speech. The Conformer combines the best of convolutional neural network and the Transformer,…

Conditional Generative Adversarial Networks (cGANs) have been used in many image processing tasks. However, they still have serious problems maintaining the balance between conditioning the output on the input and creating the output with…

For a speech-enhancement algorithm, it is highly desirable to simultaneously improve perceptual quality and recognition rate. Thanks to computational costs and model complexities, it is challenging to train a model that effectively…

Despite major advancements in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), the state-of-the-art ASR systems struggle to deal with impaired speech even with high-resource languages. In Arabic, this challenge gets amplified, with added complexities in…

We describe a modulation-domain loss function for deep-learning-based speech enhancement systems. Learnable spectro-temporal receptive fields (STRFs) were adapted to optimize for a speaker identification task. The learned STRFs were then…
