In this paper, we propose a method combining variational autoencoder model of speech with a spatial clustering approach for multi-channel speech separation. The advantage of integrating spatial clustering with a spectral model was shown in…

In this paper, we address the problem of speaker recognition in challenging acoustic conditions using a novel method to extract robust speaker-discriminative speech representations. We adopt a recently proposed unsupervised adversarial…

We introduce a simple, intuitive and yet powerful algorithm for clustering analysis. This algorithm is an iterative process on the sample space, which arises as an extension of the iteratively generated correlation matrices. It allows for…

Tree-structured neural networks exploit valuable syntactic parse information as they interpret the meanings of sentences. However, they suffer from two key technical problems that make them slow and unwieldy for large-scale NLP tasks: they…

Although supervised deep learning has revolutionized speech and audio processing, it has necessitated the building of specialist models for individual tasks and application scenarios. It is likewise difficult to apply this to dialects and…

In this paper, we investigate a deep learning approach for speech denoising through an efficient ensemble of specialist neural networks. By splitting up the speech denoising task into non-overlapping subproblems and introducing a…

While many speakers of low-resource languages regularly code-switch between their languages and other regional languages or English, datasets of codeswitched speech are too small to train bespoke acoustic models from scratch or do language…

This paper introduces a novel framework for open-set speaker identification in household environments, playing a crucial role in facilitating seamless human-computer interactions. Addressing the limitations of current speaker models and…

Accuracy and efficiency remain challenges for multi-party computation (MPC) frameworks. Spin is a GPU-accelerated MPC framework that supports multiple computation parties and a dishonest majority adversarial setup. We propose optimized…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) speech models, which can serve as powerful upstream models to extract meaningful speech representations, have achieved unprecedented success in speech representation learning. However, their effectiveness on…

Disentangled representation learning in speech processing has lagged behind other domains, largely due to the lack of datasets with annotated generative factors for robust evaluation. To address this, we propose SynSpeech, a novel…

Speaker recognition, recognizing speaker identities based on voice alone, enables important downstream applications, such as personalization and authentication. Learning speaker representations, in the context of supervised learning,…

In this paper, we focus on unsupervised representation learning for clustering of images. Recent advances in deep clustering and unsupervised representation learning are based on the idea that different views of an input image (generated…

We propose a speaker selection mechanism (SSM) for the training of an end-to-end beamforming neural network, based on recent findings that a listener usually looks to the target speaker with a certain undershot angle. The mechanism allows…

Spoken Language Understanding (SLU) is an essential part of the spoken dialogue system, which typically consists of intent detection (ID) and slot filling (SF) tasks. Recently, recurrent neural networks (RNNs) based methods achieved the…

We propose Cluster Pruning (CUP) for compressing and accelerating deep neural networks. Our approach prunes similar filters by clustering them based on features derived from both the incoming and outgoing weight connections. With CUP, we…

The objective of this paper is to learn representations of speaker identity without access to manually annotated data. To do so, we develop a self-supervised learning objective that exploits the natural cross-modal synchrony between faces…

Children's speech recognition is a vital, yet largely overlooked domain when building inclusive speech technologies. The major challenge impeding progress in this domain is the lack of adequate child speech corpora; however, recent advances…

Self-supervised learning has been used to leverage unlabelled data, improving accuracy and generalisation of speech systems through the training of representation models. While many recent works have sought to produce effective…

Self-supervised learning (SSL) is a powerful technique for learning representations from unlabeled data. Transformer based models such as HuBERT, which consist a feature extractor and transformer layers, are leading the field in the speech…
