Entertainment-oriented singing voice synthesis (SVS) requires a vocoder to generate high-fidelity (e.g. 48kHz) audio. However, most text-to-speech (TTS) vocoders cannot reconstruct the waveform well in this scenario. In this paper, we…

We introduce a novel method for emotion conversion in speech that does not require parallel training data. Our approach loosely relies on a cycle-GAN schema to minimize the reconstruction error from converting back and forth between emotion…

Recently, deep learning-based generative models have been introduced to generate singing voices. One approach is to predict the parametric vocoder features consisting of explicit speech parameters. This approach has the advantage that the…

Recently, convolution-augmented transformer (Conformer) has achieved promising performance in automatic speech recognition (ASR) and time-domain speech enhancement (SE), as it can capture both local and global dependencies in the speech…

The design of diffusion-based audio generation systems has been investigated from diverse perspectives, such as data space, network architecture, and conditioning techniques, while most of these innovations require model re-training. In…

Achieving nuanced and accurate emulation of human voice has been a longstanding goal in artificial intelligence. Although significant progress has been made in recent years, the mainstream of speech synthesis models still relies on…

Talking face generation aims to synthesize a sequence of face images that correspond to a clip of speech. This is a challenging task because face appearance variation and semantics of speech are coupled together in the subtle movements of…

In this paper, we propose a non-parallel any-to-many voice conversion (VC) method termed VoiceGrad. Inspired by WaveGrad, a recently introduced novel waveform generation method, VoiceGrad is based upon the concepts of score matching and…

The single-speaker singing voice synthesis (SVS) usually underperforms at pitch values that are out of the singer's vocal range or associated with limited training samples. Based on our previous work, this work proposes a…

In this paper, we propose a multi-speaker face-to-speech waveform generation model that also works for unseen speaker conditions. Using a generative adversarial network (GAN) with linguistic and speaker characteristic features as auxiliary…

Most deep learning-based multi-channel speech enhancement methods focus on designing a set of beamforming coefficients to directly filter the low signal-to-noise ratio signals received by microphones, which hinders the performance of these…

Text augmentation is an effective technique for addressing the problem of insufficient data in natural language processing. However, existing text augmentation methods tend to focus on few-shot scenarios and usually perform poorly on large…

We tackle the problem of generating audio samples conditioned on descriptive text captions. In this work, we propose AaudioGen, an auto-regressive generative model that generates audio samples conditioned on text inputs. AudioGen operates…

The goal of this contribution is to use a parametric speech synthesis system for reducing background noise and other interferences from recorded speech signals. In a first step, Hidden Markov Models of the synthesis system are trained. Two…

The generative adversarial networks (GANs) have facilitated the development of speech enhancement recently. Nevertheless, the performance advantage is still limited when compared with state-of-the-art models. In this paper, we propose a…

The availability of highly convincing audio deepfake generators highlights the need for designing robust audio deepfake detectors. Existing works often rely solely on real and fake data available in the training set, which may lead to…

The task of talking head generation is to synthesize a lip synchronized talking head video by inputting an arbitrary face image and audio clips. Most existing methods ignore the local driving information of the mouth muscles. In this paper,…

While voice-based AI systems have achieved remarkable generative capabilities, their interactions often feel conversationally broken. This paper examines the interactional friction that emerges in modular Speech-to-Speech…

We propose Universal MelGAN, a vocoder that synthesizes high-fidelity speech in multiple domains. To preserve sound quality when the MelGAN-based structure is trained with a dataset of hundreds of speakers, we added multi-resolution…

In this paper, we address the challenge of speech enhancement in real-world recordings, which often contain various forms of distortion, such as background noise, reverberation, and microphone artifacts. We revisit the use of Generative…
