Silent speech interfaces (SSI) aim to reconstruct the speech signal from a recording of the articulatory movement, such as an ultrasound video of the tongue. Currently, deep neural networks are the most successful technology for this task.…

Our research presents a wearable Silent Speech Interface (SSI) technology that excels in device comfort, time-energy efficiency, and speech decoding accuracy for real-world use. We developed a biocompatible, durable textile choker with an…

Articulatory information has been shown to be effective in improving the performance of HMM-based and DNN-based text-to-speech synthesis. Speech synthesis research focuses traditionally on text-to-speech conversion, when the input is text…

Speaker adaptation methods aim to create fair quality synthesis speech voice font for target speakers while only limited resources available. Recently, as deep neural networks based statistical parametric speech synthesis (SPSS) methods…

Deep neural networks have shown promising potential for ultrasound-to-speech conversion task towards Silent Speech Interfaces. In this work, we applied two Conformer-based DNN architectures (Base and one with bi-LSTM) for this task.…

Thousands of individuals need surgical removal of their larynx due to critical diseases every year and therefore, require an alternative form of communication to articulate speech sounds after the loss of their voice box. This work…

Silent Speech Interfaces (SSIs) have gained attention for their ability to generate intelligible speech from non-acoustic signals. While significant progress has been made in advancing speech generation pipelines, limited work has addressed…

Recently, Transformer-based architectures have been explored for speaker embedding extraction. Although the Transformer employs the self-attention mechanism to efficiently model the global interaction between token embeddings, it is…

Silent speech interfaces (SSI) has been an exciting area of recent interest. In this paper, we present a non-invasive silent speech interface that uses inaudible acoustic signals to capture people's lip movements when they speak. We exploit…

While deep neural networks have shown impressive results in automatic speaker recognition and related tasks, it is dissatisfactory how little is understood about what exactly is responsible for these results. Part of the success has been…

Auto-regressive speech-text models pre-trained on interleaved text tokens and discretized speech tokens demonstrate strong speech understanding and generation, yet remain substantially less compute-efficient than text LLMs, partly due to…

In this study, we aim to explore efficient tuning methods for speech self-supervised learning. Recent studies show that self-supervised learning (SSL) can learn powerful representations for different speech tasks. However, fine-tuning…

The availability of digital devices operated by voice is expanding rapidly. However, the applications of voice interfaces are still restricted. For example, speaking in public places becomes an annoyance to the surrounding people, and…

Vision-and-language navigation (VLN) is a crucial but challenging cross-modal navigation task. One powerful technique to enhance the generalization performance in VLN is the use of an independent speaker model to provide pseudo instructions…

This review summarises the status of silent speech interface (SSI) research. SSIs rely on non-acoustic biosignals generated by the human body during speech production to enable communication whenever normal verbal communication is not…

Speech enhancement is a demanding task in automated speech processing pipelines, focusing on separating clean speech from noisy channels. Transformer based models have recently bested RNN and CNN models in speech enhancement, however at the…

Silent Speech Interfaces aim to reconstruct the acoustic signal from a sequence of ultrasound tongue images that records the articulatory movement. The extraction of information about the tongue movement requires us to efficiently process…

Deep learning models are becoming predominant in many fields of machine learning. Text-to-Speech (TTS), the process of synthesizing artificial speech from text, is no exception. To this end, a deep neural network is usually trained using a…

Self-attention mechanisms have enabled transformers to achieve superhuman-level performance on many speech-to-text (STT) tasks, yet the challenge of automatic prosodic segmentation has remained unsolved. In this paper we finetune Whisper, a…

The proliferation of multi-source remote sensing data has propelled the development of deep learning for dense prediction, yet significant challenges in data and task unification persist. Current deep learning architectures for remote…
