Single-channel speech enhancement is utilized in various tasks to mitigate the effect of interfering signals. Conventionally, to ensure the speech enhancement performs optimally, the speech enhancement has needed to be tuned for each task.…

We present ESPnet-SE, which is designed for the quick development of speech enhancement and speech separation systems in a single framework, along with the optional downstream speech recognition module. ESPnet-SE is a new project which…

Most speech separation methods, trying to separate all channel sources simultaneously, are still far from having enough general- ization capabilities for real scenarios where the number of input sounds is usually uncertain and even dynamic.…

In this paper we propose the utterance-level Permutation Invariant Training (uPIT) technique. uPIT is a practically applicable, end-to-end, deep learning based solution for speaker independent multi-talker speech separation. Specifically,…

The problem of speech separation, also known as the cocktail party problem, refers to the task of isolating a single speech signal from a mixture of speech signals. Previous work on source separation derived an upper bound for the source…

Speaker extraction (SE) aims to segregate the speech of a target speaker from a mixture of interfering speakers with the help of auxiliary information. Several forms of auxiliary information have been employed in single-channel SE, such as…

This paper proposes a neural network based speech separation method using spatially distributed microphones. Unlike with traditional microphone array settings, neither the number of microphones nor their spatial arrangement is known in…

Target speech separation refers to extracting the target speaker's speech from mixed signals. Despite the recent advances in deep learning based close-talk speech separation, the applications to real-world are still an open issue. Two main…

This paper introduces a practical approach for leveraging a real-time deep learning model to alternate between speech enhancement and joint speech enhancement and separation depending on whether the input mixture contains one or two active…

Streaming recognition and segmentation of multi-party conversations with overlapping speech is crucial for the next generation of voice assistant applications. In this work we address its challenges discovered in the previous work on…

This work proposes a neural network to extensively exploit spatial information for multichannel joint speech separation, denoising and dereverberation, named SpatialNet. In the short-time Fourier transform (STFT) domain, the proposed…

While traditional statistical signal processing model-based methods can derive the optimal estimators relying on specific statistical assumptions, current learning-based methods further promote the performance upper bound via deep neural…

This paper presents recent progress on integrating speech separation and enhancement (SSE) into the ESPnet toolkit. Compared with the previous ESPnet-SE work, numerous features have been added, including recent state-of-the-art speech…

Deep clustering is a recently introduced deep learning architecture that uses discriminatively trained embeddings as the basis for clustering. It was recently applied to spectrogram segmentation, resulting in impressive results on…

Real-time single-channel speech separation aims to unmix an audio stream captured from a single microphone that contains multiple people talking at once, environmental noise, and reverberation into multiple de-reverberated and noise-free…

Impressive progress in neural network-based single-channel speech source separation has been made in recent years. But those improvements have been mostly reported on anechoic data, a situation that is hardly met in practice. Taking the…

Speech enhancement and separation are two fundamental tasks for robust speech processing. Speech enhancement suppresses background noise while speech separation extracts target speech from interfering speakers. Despite a great number of…

We present a novel source separation model to decompose asingle-channel speech signal into two speech segments belonging to two different speakers. The proposed model is a neural network based on residual blocks, and uses learnt speaker…

Speech separation with several speakers is a challenging task because of the non-stationarity of the speech and the strong signal similarity between interferent sources. Current state-of-the-art solutions can separate well the different…

Despite the recent success of deep learning for many speech processing tasks, single-microphone, speaker-independent speech separation remains challenging for two main reasons. The first reason is the arbitrary order of the target and…
