Speech enhancement (SE) methods mainly focus on recovering clean speech from noisy input. In real-world speech communication, however, noises often exist in not only speaker but also listener environments. Although SE methods can suppress…

Real-world audio recordings often contain multiple speakers and various degradations, which limit both the quantity and quality of speech data available for building state-of-the-art speech processing models. Although end-to-end approaches…

In challenging environments with significant noise and reverberation, traditional speech enhancement (SE) methods often lead to over-suppressed speech, creating artifacts during listening and harming downstream tasks performance. To…

Speech enhancement (SE) is proved effective in reducing noise from noisy speech signals for downstream automatic speech recognition (ASR), where multi-task learning strategy is employed to jointly optimize these two tasks. However, the…

This paper introduces a practical approach for leveraging a real-time deep learning model to alternate between speech enhancement and joint speech enhancement and separation depending on whether the input mixture contains one or two active…

Speech enhancement (SE) is usually required as a front end to improve the speech quality in noisy environments, while the enhanced speech might not be optimal for automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems due to speech distortion. On the…

Speech separation (SS) has advanced significantly with neural network-based methods, showing improved performance on signal-level metrics. However, these methods often struggle to maintain speech intelligibility in the separated signals,…

Noise-robust speaker verification leverages joint learning of speech enhancement (SE) and speaker verification (SV) to improve robustness. However, prevailing approaches rely on implicit noise suppression, which struggles to separate noise…

Speech enhancement and separation have been a long-standing problem, especially with the recent advances using a single microphone. Although microphones perform well in constrained settings, their performance for speech separation decreases…

Speech separation, the task of isolating multiple speech sources from a mixed audio signal, remains challenging in noisy environments. In this paper, we propose a generative correction method to enhance the output of a discriminative…

High quality speech capture has been widely studied for both voice communication and human computer interface reasons. To improve the capture performance, we can often find multi-microphone speech enhancement techniques deployed on various…

Monaural source separation is important for many real world applications. It is challenging because, with only a single channel of information available, without any constraints, an infinite number of solutions are possible. In this paper,…

Speech enhancement and separation are two fundamental tasks for robust speech processing. Speech enhancement suppresses background noise while speech separation extracts target speech from interfering speakers. Despite a great number of…

Speech enhancement is challenging because of the diversity of background noise types. Most of the existing methods are focused on modelling the speech rather than the noise. In this paper, we propose a novel idea to model speech and noise…

The current monaural state of the art tools for speech separation relies on supervised learning. This means that they must deal with permutation problem, they are impacted by the mismatch on the number of speakers used in training and…

Recent speech enhancement (SE) models increasingly leverage self-supervised learning (SSL) representations for their rich semantic information. Typically, intermediate features are aggregated into a single representation via a lightweight…

We present a frontend for improving robustness of automatic speech recognition (ASR), that jointly implements three modules within a single model: acoustic echo cancellation, speech enhancement, and speech separation. This is achieved by…

Speech separation refers to extracting each individual speech source in a given mixed signal. Recent advancements in speech separation and ongoing research in this area, have made these approaches as promising techniques for pre-processing…

In this paper we present a single-microphone speech enhancement algorithm. A hybrid approach is proposed merging the generative mixture of Gaussians (MoG) model and the discriminative neural network (NN). The proposed algorithm is executed…

Recent progress in speech separation has been largely driven by advances in deep neural networks, yet their high computational and memory requirements hinder deployment on resource-constrained devices. A significant inefficiency in…
