We present an end-to-end text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis system that generates audio and synchronized tongue motion directly from text. This is achieved by adapting a 3D model of the tongue surface to an articulatory dataset and training a…

Synthesizing performing guitar sound is a highly challenging task due to the polyphony and high variability in expression. Recently, deep generative models have shown promising results in synthesizing expressive polyphonic instrument sounds…

This paper is about developing personalized speech synthesis systems with recordings of mildly impaired speech. In particular, we consider consonant and vowel alterations resulted from partial glossectomy, the surgical removal of part of…

Emotion is a core paralinguistic feature in voice interaction. It is widely believed that emotion understanding models learn fundamental representations that transfer to synthesized speech, making emotion understanding results a plausible…

We present a novel neural encoder system for acoustic-to-articulatory inversion. We leverage the Pink Trombone voice synthesizer that reveals articulatory parameters (e.g tongue position and vocal cord configuration). Our system is designed…

Using a Teacher-Student training approach we developed a speaker embedding extraction system that outputs embeddings at frame rate. Given this high temporal resolution and the fact that the student produces sensible speaker embeddings even…

In this paper, we present our first experiments in text-to-articulation prediction, using ultrasound tongue image targets. We extend a traditional (vocoder-based) DNN-TTS framework with predicting PCA-compressed ultrasound images, of which…

Electromyography-to-Speech (ETS) conversion has demonstrated its potential for silent speech interfaces by generating audible speech from Electromyography (EMG) signals during silent articulations. ETS models usually consist of an EMG…

We present an end-to-end deep network model that performs meeting diarization from single-channel audio recordings. End-to-end diarization models have the advantage of handling speaker overlap and enabling straightforward handling of…

In recent years, the rapid progress in speaker verification (SV) technology has been driven by the extraction of speaker representations based on deep learning. However, such representations are still vulnerable to emotion variability. To…

Multimodal speech recognition aims to improve the performance of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems by leveraging additional visual information that is usually associated to the audio input. While previous approaches make crucial…

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) is improving ever more at mimicking human speech processing. The functioning of ASR, however, remains to a large extent obfuscated by the complex structure of the deep neural networks (DNNs) they are based…

Generating speech across different accents while preserving speaker identity is crucial for various real-world applications. However, accurately and independently modeling both speaker and accent characteristics in text-to-speech (TTS)…

Dysarthria is a disability that causes a disturbance in the human speech system and reduces the quality and intelligibility of a person's speech. Because of this effect, the normal speech processing systems can not work properly on impaired…

Research on automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems for electrolaryngeal speakers has been relatively unexplored due to small datasets. When training data is lacking in ASR, a large-scale pretraining and fine tuning framework is often…

Fine-grained editing of speech attributes$\unicode{x2014}$such as prosody (i.e., the pitch, loudness, and phoneme durations), pronunciation, speaker identity, and formants$\unicode{x2014}$is useful for fine-tuning and fixing imperfections…

Speech emotion recognition (SER) has advanced significantly for the sake of deep-learning methods, while textual information further enhances its performance. However, few studies have focused on the physiological information during speech…

The awareness for biased ASR datasets or models has increased notably in recent years. Even for English, despite a vast amount of available training data, systems perform worse for non-native speakers. In this work, we improve an…

Dysarthric speakers experience substantial communication challenges due to impaired motor control of the speech apparatus, which leads to reduced speech intelligibility. This creates significant obstacles in dataset curation since actual…

Abstract Meaning Representation (AMR) is a recently designed semantic representation language intended to capture the meaning of a sentence, which may be represented as a single-rooted directed acyclic graph with labeled nodes and edges.…
