Most organisms including humans function by coordinating and integrating sensory signals with motor actions to survive and accomplish desired tasks. Learning these complex sensorimotor mappings proceeds simultaneously and often in an…

Acoustic to articulatory inversion has often been limited to a small part of the vocal tract because the data are generally EMA (ElectroMagnetic Articulography) data requiring sensors to be glued to easily accessible articulators. The…

Articulatory acoustic inversion aims to reconstruct the complete geometry of the vocal tract from the speech signal. In this paper, we present a comparative study of several levels of phonetic segmentation accuracy, together with a…

Electromagnetic articulography (EMA) captures the position and orientation of a number of markers, attached to the articulators, during speech. As such, it performs the same function for speech that conventional motion capture does for…

Expressive speech synthesis aims to generate speech that captures a wide range of para-linguistic features, including emotion and articulation, though current research primarily emphasizes emotional aspects over the nuanced articulatory…

We present a neuromuscular speech interface that translates electromyographic (EMG) signals recorded from orofacial muscles during speech articulation directly into audio. We find that self-supervised speech (S3) representations are…

In this paper we propose a new method of speaker diarization that employs a deep learning architecture to learn speaker embeddings. In contrast to the traditional approaches that build their speaker embeddings using manually hand-crafted…

We propose an approach for learning critical articulators for phonemes through a machine learning approach. We formulate the learning with three models trained end to end. First, we use Acoustic to Articulatory Inversion (AAI) to predict…

Objective. In this article, we present data and methods for decoding speech articulations using surface electromyogram (EMG) signals. EMG-based speech neuroprostheses offer a promising approach for restoring audible speech in individuals…

Brain-to-speech technology represents a fusion of interdisciplinary applications encompassing fields of artificial intelligence, brain-computer interfaces, and speech synthesis. Neural representation learning based intention decoding and…

We present an articulatory synthesis framework for the synthesis and manipulation of oral cancer speech for clinical decision making and alleviation of patient stress. Objective and subjective evaluations demonstrate that the framework has…

Dysarthria is a motor speech disorder often characterized by reduced speech intelligibility through slow, uncoordinated control of speech production muscles. Automatic Speech recognition (ASR) systems may help dysarthric talkers communicate…

Articulatory-to-acoustic inversion strongly depends on the type of data used. While most previous studies rely on EMA, which is limited by the number of sensors and restricted to accessible articulators, we propose an approach aiming at a…

This paper presents Articulatory-WaveNet, a new approach for acoustic-to-articulator inversion. The proposed system uses the WaveNet speech synthesis architecture, with dilated causal convolutional layers using previous values of the…

Recent research has delved into speech enhancement (SE) approaches that leverage audio embeddings from pre-trained models, diverging from time-frequency masking or signal prediction techniques. This paper introduces an efficient and…

Understanding speech production both visually and kinematically can inform second language learning system designs, as well as the creation of speaking characters in video games and animations. In this work, we introduce a data-driven…

This paper proposes a deep denoising auto-encoder technique to extract better acoustic features for speech synthesis. The technique allows us to automatically extract low-dimensional features from high dimensional spectral features in a…

Speech sounds of spoken language are obtained by varying configuration of the articulators surrounding the vocal tract. They contain abundant information that can be utilized to better understand the underlying mechanism of human speech…

Streaming speech-to-avatar synthesis creates real-time animations for a virtual character from audio data. Accurate avatar representations of speech are important for the visualization of sound in linguistics, phonetics, and phonology,…

The rise of deep learning algorithms has led many researchers to withdraw from using classic signal processing methods for sound generation. Deep learning models have achieved expressive voice synthesis, realistic sound textures, and…
