We present the Zero Resource Speech Challenge 2020, which aims at learning speech representations from raw audio signals without any labels. It combines the data sets and metrics from two previous benchmarks (2017 and 2019) and features two…

An important step in speaker verification is extracting features that best characterize the speaker voice. This paper investigates a front-end processing that aims at improving the performance of speaker verification based on the SVMs…

The Deep Noise Suppression (DNS) challenge is designed to foster innovation in the area of noise suppression to achieve superior perceptual speech quality. We recently organized a DNS challenge special session at INTERSPEECH and ICASSP…

The primary goal of this FBK's systems submission to the IWSLT 2022 offline and simultaneous speech translation tasks is to reduce model training costs without sacrificing translation quality. As such, we first question the need of ASR…

This paper describes our submission to Task 1 of the Short-duration Speaker Verification (SdSV) challenge 2020. Task 1 is a text-dependent speaker verification task, where both the speaker and phrase are required to be verified. The…

Self-supervised learning representations (SSLR) have resulted in robust features for downstream tasks in many fields. Recently, several SSLRs have shown promising results on automatic speech recognition (ASR) benchmark corpora. However,…

The main motivation for Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) is efficient interfaces to computers, and for the interfaces to be natural and truly useful, it should provide coverage for a large group of users. The purpose of these tasks is to…

While the last decade has witnessed significant advancements in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems, performance of these systems for individuals with speech disabilities remains inadequate, partly due to limited public training…

The ICASSP 2023 Speech Signal Improvement Challenge is intended to stimulate research in the area of improving the speech signal quality in communication systems. The speech signal quality can be measured with SIG in ITU-T P.835 and is…

The VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge 2019 aimed to assess how well current speaker recognition technology is able to identify speakers in unconstrained or `in the wild' data. It consisted of: (i) a publicly available speaker…

This report describes the submission from Technical University of Catalonia (UPC) to the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge (VoxSRC-20) at Interspeech 2020. The final submission is a combination of three systems. System-1 is an…

Speech activity detection (SAD), which often rests on the fact that the noise is "more" stationary than speech, is particularly challenging in non-stationary environments, because the time variance of the acoustic scene makes it difficult…

This paper summarizes the Interspeech2025 Multilingual Conversational Speech Language Model (MLC-SLM) challenge, which aims to advance the exploration of building effective multilingual conversational speech LLMs (SLLMs). We provide a…

Various human activities can be abstracted into a sequence of actions in natural text, i.e. cooking, repairing, manufacturing, etc. Such action sequences heavily depend on the executing order, while disorder in action sequences leads to…

The INTERSPEECH 2021 Computational Paralinguistics Challenge addresses four different problems for the first time in a research competition under well-defined conditions: In the COVID-19 Cough and COVID-19 Speech Sub-Challenges, a binary…

In this paper, a novel architecture for speaker recognition is proposed by cascading speech enhancement and speaker processing. Its aim is to improve speaker recognition performance when speech signals are corrupted by noise. Instead of…

We present the third edition of the VoiceMOS Challenge, a scientific initiative designed to advance research into automatic prediction of human speech ratings. There were three tracks. The first track was on predicting the quality of…

Sound event localization and detection is a novel area of research that emerged from the combined interest of analyzing the acoustic scene in terms of the spatial and temporal activity of sounds of interest. This paper presents an overview…

We present the Zero Resource Speech Challenge 2021, which asks participants to learn a language model directly from audio, without any text or labels. The challenge is based on the Libri-light dataset, which provides up to 60k hours of…

The 1st edition of the workshop on Mixed-Initiative ConveRsatiOnal Systems (MICROS@ECIR2021) aims at investigating and collecting novel ideas and contributions in the field of conversational systems. Oftentimes, the users fulfill their…
