Deep learning in audio signal processing, such as human voice audio signal classification, is a rich application area of machine learning. Legitimate use cases include voice authentication, gunfire detection, and emotion recognition. While…

The rapid progress in personalized speech generation technology, including personalized text-to-speech (TTS) and voice conversion (VC), poses a challenge in distinguishing between generated and real speech for human listeners, resulting in…

The widespread adoption of voice-activated systems has modified routine human-machine interaction but has also introduced new vulnerabilities. This paper investigates the susceptibility of automatic speech recognition (ASR) algorithms in…

Audio pretrained models are widely employed to solve various tasks in speech processing, sound event detection, or music information retrieval. However, the representations learned by these models are unclear, and their analysis mainly…

Automated speaker recognition uses data processing to identify speakers by their voice. Today, automated speaker recognition is deployed on billions of smart devices and in services such as call centres. Despite their wide-scale deployment…

Automatic speech recognition systems have created exciting possibilities for applications, however they also enable opportunities for systematic eavesdropping. We propose a method to camouflage a person's voice over-the-air from these…

Voice anonymization masks vocal traits while preserving linguistic content, which may still leak speaker-specific patterns. To assess and strengthen privacy evaluation, we propose a dual-stream attacker that fuses spectral and…

Speech embeddings often retain sensitive attributes such as speaker identity, accent, or demographic information, posing risks in biased model training and privacy leakage. We propose WavShape, an information-theoretic speech representation…

We present a privacy-enhancing mechanism for gaze signals using a latent-noise autoencoder that prevents users from being re-identified across play sessions without their consent, while retaining the usability of the data for benign tasks.…

In recent years, significant progress has been made in deep model-based automatic speech recognition (ASR), leading to its widespread deployment in the real world. At the same time, adversarial attacks against deep ASR systems are highly…

Voice anonymization systems aim to protect speaker privacy by obscuring vocal traits while preserving the linguistic content relevant for downstream applications. However, because these linguistic cues remain intact, they can be exploited…

Autoencoder can give rise to an appropriate latent representation of the input data, however, the representation which is solely based on the intrinsic property of the input data, is usually inferior to express some semantic information. A…

Dysarthric speech recognition is a challenging task due to acoustic variability and limited amount of available data. Diverse conditions of dysarthric speakers account for the acoustic variability, which make the variability difficult to be…

Speech 'in-the-wild' is a handicap for speaker recognition systems due to the variability induced by real-life conditions, such as environmental noise and the emotional state of the speaker. Taking advantage of the principles of…

Privacy concerns in the modern digital age have prompted researchers to develop techniques that allow users to selectively suppress certain information in collected data while allowing for other information to be extracted. In this regard,…

Adversarial learning is a widely used technique in fair representation learning to remove the biases on sensitive attributes from data representations. It usually requires to incorporate the sensitive attribute labels as prediction targets.…

The deepfake generation of singing vocals is a concerning issue for artists in the music industry. In this work, we propose a singing voice deepfake detection (SVDD) system, which uses noise-variant encodings of open-AI's Whisper model. As…

Advances in speech technology now allow unprecedented access to personally identifiable information through speech. To protect such information, the differential privacy field has explored ways to anonymize speech while preserving its…

Mass surveillance systems for voice over IP (VoIP) conversations pose a great risk to privacy. These automated systems use learning models to analyze conversations, and calls that involve specific topics are routed to a human agent for…

Speech signals contain a lot of sensitive information, such as the speaker's identity, which raises privacy concerns when speech data get collected. Speaker anonymization aims to transform a speech signal to remove the source speaker's…
