A large and growing amount of speech content in real-life scenarios is being recorded on consumer-grade devices in uncontrolled environments, resulting in degraded speech quality. Transforming such low-quality device-degraded speech into…
Despite significant progress made in the last decade, deep neural network (DNN) based speech enhancement (SE) still faces the challenge of notable degradation in the quality of recovered speech under low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)…
Diffusion-based text-to-speech (TTS) systems have made remarkable progress in zero-shot speech synthesis, yet optimizing all components for perceptual metrics remains challenging. Prior work with DMOSpeech demonstrated direct metric…
Deep learning-based direction-of-arrival (DoA) estimation has gained increasing popularity. A popular family of DoA estimation algorithms is beamforming methods, which operate by constructing a spatial filter that is applied to array…
For beamforming ultrasound (US) signals, typically a spatially constant speed-of-sound (SoS) is assumed to calculate delays. As SoS in tissue may vary relatively largely, this approximation may cause wavefront aberrations, thus degrading…
Phase aberration is one of the primary sources of image quality degradation in ultrasound, which is induced by spatial variations in sound speed across the heterogeneous medium. This effect disrupts transmitted waves and prevents coherent…
To address the monaural speech enhancement problem, numerous research studies have been conducted to enhance speech via operations either in time-domain on the inner-domain learned from the speech mixture or in time--frequency domain on the…
The proposed Circular statistics-based Inter-Microphone Phase difference estimation Localizer (CIMPL) method is tailored toward binaural hearing aid systems with microphone arrays in each unit. The method utilizes the circular statistics…
The estimation of reverberation time from real-world signals plays a central role in a wide range of applications. In many scenarios, acoustic conditions change over time which in turn requires the estimate to be updated continuously.…
To achieve human-like behaviour during speech interactions, it is necessary for a humanoid robot to estimate the location of a human talker. Here, we present a method to optimize the parameters used for the direction of arrival (DOA)…
We propose using self-supervised discrete representations for the task of speech resynthesis. To generate disentangled representation, we separately extract low-bitrate representations for speech content, prosodic information, and speaker…
Although 360\textdegree{} cameras ease the capture of panoramic footage, it remains challenging to add realistic 360\textdegree{} audio that blends into the captured scene and is synchronized with the camera motion. We present a method for…
Compared to traditional electrodynamic loudspeakers, the parametric array loudspeaker (PAL) offers exceptional directivity for audio applications but suffers from significant nonlinear distortions due to its inherent intricate demodulation…
Spatial audio enhances immersion in applications such as virtual reality, augmented reality, gaming, and cinema by creating a three-dimensional auditory experience. Ensuring the spatial fidelity of binaural audio is crucial, given that…
Segmenting audio into homogeneous sections such as music and speech helps us understand the content of audio. It is useful as a pre-processing step to index, store, and modify audio recordings, radio broadcasts and TV programmes. Deep…
In ultrasound beamforming, focusing time delays are typically computed with a spatially constant speed-of-sound (SoS) assumption. A mismatch between beamforming and true medium SoS then leads to aberration artifacts. Other imaging…
The generation of realistic, context-aware audio is important in real-world applications such as video game development. While existing video-to-audio (V2A) methods mainly focus on Foley sound generation, they struggle to produce…
Automatic recognition of disordered speech remains a highly challenging task to date. Sources of variability commonly found in normal speech including accent, age or gender, when further compounded with the underlying causes of speech…
In this paper, a speech enhancement method based on noise compensation performed on short time magnitude as well phase spectra is presented. Unlike the conventional geometric approach (GA) to spectral subtraction (SS), here the noise…
Audio Telepresence (AT) aims to create an immersive experience of the audio scene at the far end for the user(s) at the near end. The application of AT could encompass scenarios with varying degrees of emphasis on signal enhancement and…
