Text mismatch between pre-collected data, either training data or enrollment data, and the actual test data can significantly hurt text-dependent speaker verification (SV) system performance. Although this problem can be solved by carefully…

Speaker recognition technology is applied to various tasks, from personal virtual assistants to secure access systems. However, the robustness of these systems against adversarial attacks, particularly to additive perturbations, remains a…

We train an identity verification architecture and evaluate modifications to the part of the model that combines audio and visual representations, including in scenarios where one input is missing in either of two examples to be compared.…

Obtaining high-quality speaker embeddings in multi-speaker conditions is crucial for many applications. A recently proposed guided speaker embedding framework, which utilizes speech activities of target and non-target speakers as clues,…

The articulatory geometric configurations of the vocal tract and the acoustic properties of the resultant speech sound are considered to have a strong causal relationship. This paper aims at finding a joint latent representation between the…

Variational autoencoders learn unsupervised data representations, but these models frequently converge to minima that fail to preserve meaningful semantic information. For example, variational autoencoders with autoregressive decoders often…

Recent advances in artificial speech and audio technologies have improved the abilities of deep-fake operators to falsify media and spread malicious misinformation. Anyone with limited coding skills can use freely available speech synthesis…

Audio-visual speaker diarization aims at detecting "who spoke when" using both auditory and visual signals. Existing audio-visual diarization datasets are mainly focused on indoor environments like meeting rooms or news studios, which are…

In this paper, we propose an online speaker adaptation method for WaveNet-based neural vocoders in order to improve their performance on speaker-independent waveform generation. In this method, a speaker encoder is first constructed using a…

Despite its broad practical applications such as in fraud prevention, open-set speaker identification (OSI) has received less attention in the speaker recognition community compared to speaker verification (SV). OSI deals with determining…

Generally speaking, the main objective when training a neural speech synthesis system is to synthesize natural and expressive speech from the output layer of the neural network without much attention given to the hidden layers. However, by…

Automated audio captioning aims to use natural language to describe the content of audio data. This paper presents an audio captioning system with an encoder-decoder architecture, where the decoder predicts words based on audio features…

Existing fake audio detection systems perform well in in-domain testing, but still face many challenges in out-of-domain testing. This is due to the mismatch between the training and test data, as well as the poor generalizability of…

Both acoustic and visual information influence human perception of speech. For this reason, the lack of audio in a video sequence determines an extremely low speech intelligibility for untrained lip readers. In this paper, we present a way…

While Audio-Visual Language Models (AVLMs) have achieved remarkable progress over recent years, their reliability is bottlenecked by cross-modal hallucination. A particularly pervasive manifestation is video-driven audio hallucination:…

In this work, we propose deep latent space clustering for speaker diarization using generative adversarial network (GAN) backprojection with the help of an encoder network. The proposed diarization system is trained jointly with GAN loss,…

Discrete audio representations are gaining traction in speech modeling due to their interpretability and compatibility with large language models, but are not always optimized for noisy or real-world environments. Building on existing works…

This study investigates the explainability of embedding representations, specifically those used in modern audio spoofing detection systems based on deep neural networks, known as spoof embeddings. Building on established work in speaker…

Prosody modeling is important, but still challenging in expressive voice conversion. As prosody is difficult to model, and other factors, e.g., speaker, environment and content, which are entangled with prosody in speech, should be removed…

The emergence of voice-assistant devices ushers in delightful user experiences not just on the smart home front, but also in diverse educational environments from classrooms to personalized-learning/tutoring. However, the use of voice as an…
