Machine learning techniques are an active area of research for speech enhancement for hearing aids, with one particular focus on improving the intelligibility of a noisy speech signal. Recent work has shown that feature encodings from…

Disentanglement is the task of learning representations that identify and separate factors that explain the variation observed in data. Disentangled representations are useful to increase the generalizability, explainability, and fairness…

Much effort has been devoted to making large and more accurate models, but relatively little has been put into understanding which examples are benefiting from the added complexity. In this paper, we demonstrate and analyze the surprisingly…

We propose an end-to-end speaker-attributed automatic speech recognition model that unifies speaker counting, speech recognition, and speaker identification on monaural overlapped speech. Our model is built on serialized output training…

Large Language Models (LLMs) possess outstanding capabilities in addressing various natural language processing (NLP) tasks. However, the sheer size of these models poses challenges in terms of storage, training and inference due to the…

We investigate recent transformer networks pre-trained for automatic speech recognition for their ability to detect speaker and language changes in speech. We do this by simply adding speaker (change) or language targets to the labels. For…

Speech separation has been extensively explored to tackle the cocktail party problem. However, these studies are still far from having enough generalization capabilities for real scenarios. In this work, we raise a common strategy named…

Optimization of a trade-off between the number of speakers and their temporal variability (or session diversity) is crucial for the development of a speaker recognition system together with making the data collection process feasible from a…

This paper investigates efficient methods for utilizing text-only data to improve speech recognition, focusing on encoder-dominated models that facilitate faster recognition. We provide a comprehensive comparison of techniques to integrate…

Building a persona-based conversation agent is challenging owing to the lack of large amounts of speaker-specific conversation data for model training. This paper addresses the problem by proposing a multi-task learning approach to training…

Voice recognition and speaker identification are vital for applications in security and personal assistants. This paper presents a lightweight 1D-Convolutional Neural Network (1D-CNN) designed to perform speaker identification on minimal…

This paper improves the speaker recognition rates of a MLP classifier and LPCC codebook alone, using a linear combination between both methods. In simulations we have obtained an improvement of 4.7% over a LPCC codebook of 32 vectors and…

A new language model for speech recognition inspired by linguistic analysis is presented. The model develops hidden hierarchical structure incrementally and uses it to extract meaningful information from the word history - thus enabling the…

The performance of automatic speech recognition systems can be improved by adapting an acoustic model to compensate for the mismatch between training and testing conditions, for example by adapting to unseen speakers. The success of speaker…

Speaker recognition systems are widely used in various applications to identify a person by their voice; however, the high degree of variability in speech signals makes this a challenging task. Dealing with emotional variations is very…

Large language models have been proven quite beneficial for a variety of automatic speech recognition tasks in Google. We summarize results on Voice Search and a few YouTube speech transcription tasks to highlight the impact that one can…

Developing large language models is expensive and involves making decisions with small experiments, typically by evaluating on large, multi-task evaluation suites. In this work, we analyze specific properties which make a benchmark more…

In recent years, an association is established between faces and voices of celebrities leveraging large scale audio-visual information from YouTube. The availability of large scale audio-visual datasets is instrumental in developing speaker…

We address the problem of inferring a speaker's level of certainty based on prosodic information in the speech signal, which has application in speech-based dialogue systems. We show that using phrase-level prosodic features centered around…

Audio is a rich sensing modality that is useful for a variety of human activity recognition tasks. However, the ubiquitous nature of smartphones and smart speakers with always-on microphones has led to numerous privacy concerns and a lack…
