In recent years, the joint training of speech enhancement front-end and automatic speech recognition (ASR) back-end has been widely used to improve the robustness of ASR systems. Traditional joint training methods only use enhanced speech…

Improving the accuracy of single-channel automatic speech recognition (ASR) in noisy conditions is challenging. Strong speech enhancement front-ends are available, however, they typically require that the ASR model is retrained to cope with…

In this work, we exploit speech enhancement for improving a recurrent neural network transducer (RNN-T) based ASR system. We employ a dense convolutional recurrent network (DCRN) for complex spectral mapping based speech enhancement, and…

It has been shown that the intelligibility of noisy speech can be improved by speech enhancement algorithms. However, speech enhancement has not been established as an effective frontend for robust automatic speech recognition (ASR) in…

Neural waveform models such as the WaveNet are used in many recent text-to-speech systems, but the original WaveNet is quite slow in waveform generation because of its autoregressive (AR) structure. Although faster non-AR models were…

Compensation for channel mismatch and noise interference is essential for robust automatic speech recognition. Enhanced speech has been introduced into the multi-condition training of acoustic models to improve their generalization ability.…

We propose to implement speech enhancement by the regeneration of clean speech from a salient representation extracted from the noisy signal. The network that extracts salient features is trained using a set of weight-sharing clones of the…

This paper describes noisy speech recognition for an augmented reality headset that helps verbal communication within real multiparty conversational environments. A major approach that has actively been studied in simulated environments is…

Most deep learning-based models for speech enhancement have mainly focused on estimating the magnitude of spectrogram while reusing the phase from noisy speech for reconstruction. This is due to the difficulty of estimating the phase of…

Speech enhancement (SE) aims to suppress the additive noise from a noisy speech signal to improve the speech's perceptual quality and intelligibility. However, the over-suppression phenomenon in the enhanced speech might degrade the…

Neural source-filter (NSF) models are deep neural networks that produce waveforms given input acoustic features. They use dilated-convolution-based neural filter modules to filter sine-based excitation for waveform generation, which is…

Speech enhancement is a demanding task in automated speech processing pipelines, focusing on separating clean speech from noisy channels. Transformer based models have recently bested RNN and CNN models in speech enhancement, however at the…

Speech enhancement has seen great improvement in recent years mainly through contributions in denoising, speaker separation, and dereverberation methods that mostly deal with environmental effects on vocal audio. To enhance speech beyond…

Speech enhancement involves the distinction of a target speech signal from an intrusive background. Although generative approaches using Variational Autoencoders or Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) have increasingly been used in…

We propose an end-to-end model based on convolutional and recurrent neural networks for speech enhancement. Our model is purely data-driven and does not make any assumptions about the type or the stationarity of the noise. In contrast to…

We investigate the effectiveness of generative adversarial networks (GANs) for speech enhancement, in the context of improving noise robustness of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. Prior work demonstrates that GANs can effectively…

In this paper, we propose a model to perform style transfer of speech to singing voice. Contrary to the previous signal processing-based methods, which require high-quality singing templates or phoneme synchronization, we explore a…

Contemporary speech enhancement predominantly relies on audio transforms that are trained to reconstruct a clean speech waveform. The development of high-performing neural network sound recognition systems has raised the possibility of…

This work introduces the Cleanformer, a streaming multichannel neural based enhancement frontend for automatic speech recognition (ASR). This model has a conformer-based architecture which takes as inputs a single channel each of raw and…

In this paper we address the problem of enhancing speech signals in noisy mixtures using a source separation approach. We explore the use of neural networks as an alternative to a popular speech variance model based on supervised…
