Lifelong audio feature extraction involves learning new sound classes incrementally, which is essential for adapting to new data distributions over time. However, optimizing the model only on new data can lead to catastrophic forgetting of…

Significant strides have been made in creating voice identity representations using speech data. However, the same level of progress has not been achieved for singing voices. To bridge this gap, we suggest a framework for training singer…

Language-queried Audio Separation (LASS) employs linguistic queries to isolate target sounds based on semantic descriptions. However, existing methods face challenges in aligning complex auditory features with linguistic context while…

Traditionally, research in automated speech recognition has focused on local-first encoding of audio representations to predict the spoken phonemes in an utterance. Unfortunately, approaches relying on such hyper-local information tend to…

Advancements in audio neural networks have established state-of-the-art results on downstream audio tasks. However, the black-box structure of these models makes it difficult to interpret the information encoded in their internal audio…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) has significantly advanced acoustic representation learning. However, most existing models are optimised for either speech or audio event understanding, resulting in a persistent gap between these two domains.…

Neural audio codecs have revolutionized audio processing by enabling speech tasks to be performed on highly compressed representations. Recent work has shown that speech separation can be achieved within these compressed domains, offering…

Transformer-based models attain excellent results and generalize well when trained on sufficient amounts of data. However, constrained by the limited data available in the audio domain, most transformer-based models for audio tasks are…

We propose a lightly-supervised approach for information extraction, in particular named entity classification, which combines the benefits of traditional bootstrapping, i.e., use of limited annotations and interpretability of extraction…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) methods have proven to be very successful in automatic speech recognition (ASR). These great improvements have been reported mostly based on highly curated datasets such as LibriSpeech for non-streaming…

Learning good representations without supervision is still an open issue in machine learning, and is particularly challenging for speech signals, which are often characterized by long sequences with a complex hierarchical structure. Some…

In recent years, self-supervised learning (SSL) frameworks have been extensively applied to sensor-based Human Activity Recognition (HAR) in order to learn deep representations without data annotations. While SSL frameworks reach…

The goal of universal audio representation learning is to obtain foundational models that can be used for a variety of downstream tasks involving speech, music and environmental sounds. To approach this problem, methods inspired by works on…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) offers a powerful way to learn robust, generalizable representations without labeled data. In music, where labeled data is scarce, existing SSL methods typically use generated supervision and multi-view…

We learn audio representations by solving a novel self-supervised learning task, which consists of predicting the phase of the short-time Fourier transform from its magnitude. A convolutional encoder is used to map the magnitude spectrum of…

Incorporating heterogeneous representations from different architectures has facilitated various vision tasks, e.g., some hybrid networks combine transformers and convolutions. However, complementarity between such heterogeneous…

Inspired by the recent progress in self-supervised learning for computer vision, in this paper we introduce DeLoRes, a new general-purpose audio representation learning approach. Our main objective is to make our network learn…

Bandwidth extension, the task of reconstructing the high-frequency components of an audio signal from its low-pass counterpart, is a long-standing problem in audio processing. While traditional approaches have evolved alongside the broader…

The representation learning of speech, without textual resources, is an area of significant interest for many low resource speech applications. In this paper, we describe an approach to self-supervised representation learning from raw audio…

Studies have shown that in noisy acoustic environments, providing binaural signals to the user of an assistive listening device may improve speech intelligibility and spatial awareness. This paper presents a binaural speech enhancement…
