With recent research advancements, deep learning models are becoming attractive and powerful choices for speech enhancement in real-time applications. While state-of-the-art models can achieve outstanding results in terms of speech quality…

The reverberation time (T60) and the direct-to-reverberant ratio (DRR) are commonly used to characterize room acoustic environments. Both parameters can be measured from an acoustic impulse response (AIR) or using blind estimation methods…

Speaker localization in a reverberant environment is a fundamental problem in audio signal processing. Many solutions have been developed to tackle this problem. However, previous algorithms typically assume a stationary environment in…

Current research in synthesized speech detection primarily focuses on the generalization of detection systems to unknown spoofing methods of noise-free speech. However, the performance of anti-spoofing countermeasures (CM) system is often…

Automatic meeting analysis is an essential fundamental technology required to let, e.g. smart devices follow and respond to our conversations. To achieve an optimal automatic meeting analysis, we previously proposed an all-neural approach…

Humans can robustly recognize and localize objects by integrating visual and auditory cues. While machines are able to do the same now with images, less work has been done with sounds. This work develops an approach for dense semantic…

Although deep-learning-based methods have markedly improved the performance of speech separation over the past few years, it remains an open question how to integrate multi-channel signals for speech separation. We propose two methods,…

This paper focuses on room fingerprinting, a task involving the analysis of an audio recording to determine the specific volume and shape of the room in which it was captured. While it is relatively straightforward to determine the basic…

We propose a method for joint multichannel speech dereverberation with two spatial-aware tasks: direction-of-arrival (DOA) estimation and speech separation. The proposed method addresses involved tasks as a sequence to sequence mapping…

This paper presents two single channel speech dereverberation methods to enhance the quality of speech signals that have been recorded in an enclosed space. For both methods, the room acoustics are modeled using a nonnegative approximation…

Latest advances in deep spatial filtering for Ambisonics demonstrate strong performance in stationary multi-speaker scenarios by rotating the sound field toward a target speaker prior to multi-channel enhancement. For applicability in…

Diffusion models have recently shown promising results for difficult enhancement tasks such as the conditional and unconditional restoration of natural images and audio signals. In this work, we explore the possibility of leveraging a…

This paper presents a two-step approach for narrowband source localization within reverberant rooms. The first step involves dereverberation by modeling the homogeneous component of the sound field by an equivalent decomposition of…

Speaker diarization, the process of segmenting an audio stream or transcribed speech content into homogenous partitions based on speaker identity, plays a crucial role in the interpretation and analysis of human speech. Most existing…

Using more test-time computation during language model inference, such as generating more intermediate thoughts or sampling multiple candidate answers, has proven effective in significantly improving model performance. This paper takes an…

Spatial semantic segmentation of sound scenes (S5) involves the accurate identification of active sound classes and the precise separation of their sources from complex acoustic mixtures. Conventional systems rely on a two-stage pipeline -…

Speech audio quality is subject to degradation caused by an acoustic environment and isotropic ambient and point noises. The environment can lead to decreased speech intelligibility and loss of focus and attention by the listener. Basic…

The estimation of the time- and frequency-dependent coherent-to-diffuse power ratio (CDR) from the measured spatial coherence between two omnidirectional microphones is investigated. Known CDR estimators are formulated in a common…

Speech data has rich acoustic and paralinguistic information with important cues for understanding a speaker's tone, emotion, and intent, yet traditional large language models such as BERT do not incorporate this information. There has been…

Current state-of-the-art speech recognition models are trained to map acoustic signals into sub-lexical units. While these models demonstrate superior performance, they remain vulnerable to out-of-distribution conditions such as background…
