We previously proposed a method that allows for nonparallel voice conversion (VC) by using a variant of generative adversarial networks (GANs) called StarGAN. The main features of our method, called StarGAN-VC, are as follows: First, it…

This paper presents a novel framework to build a voice conversion (VC) system by learning from a text-to-speech (TTS) synthesis system, that is called TTS-VC transfer learning. We first develop a multi-speaker speech synthesis system with…

This paper presents a method for end-to-end cross-lingual text-to-speech (TTS) which aims to preserve the target language's pronunciation regardless of the original speaker's language. The model used is based on a non-attentive Tacotron…

Speech enhancement in multichannel settings has been realized by utilizing the spatial information embedded in multiple microphone signals. Moreover, deep neural networks (DNNs) have been recently advanced in this field; however, studies on…

Identifying multiple speakers without knowing where a speaker's voice is in a recording is a challenging task. This paper proposes a hierarchical network with transformer encoders and memory mechanism to address this problem. The proposed…

Since the introduction of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) in speech synthesis, remarkable achievements have been attained. In a thorough exploration of vocoders, it has been discovered that audio waveforms can be generated at speeds…

To extract the voice of a target speaker when mixed with a variety of other sounds, such as white and ambient noises or the voices of interfering speakers, we extend the Transformer network to attend the most relevant information with…

Applying changes to an input speech signal to change the perceived speaker of speech to a target while maintaining the content of the input is a challenging but interesting task known as Voice conversion (VC). Over the last few years, this…

Although deep learning based multi-channel speech enhancement has achieved significant advancements, its practical deployment is often limited by constrained computational resources, particularly in low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR)…

Generative audio technologies now enable highly realistic voice cloning and real-time voice conversion, increasing the risk of impersonation, fraud, and misinformation in communication channels such as phone and video calls. This study…

Voice conversion (VC) could be used to improve speech recognition systems in low-resource languages by using it to augment limited training data. However, VC has not been widely used for this purpose because of practical issues such as…

Audio-visual speech enhancement system is regarded as one of promising solutions for isolating and enhancing speech of desired speaker. Typical methods focus on predicting clean speech spectrum via a naive convolution neural network based…

This paper presents the T02 team's system for the Singing Voice Conversion Challenge 2023 (SVCC2023). Our system entails a VITS-based SVC model, incorporating three modules: a feature extractor, a voice converter, and a post-processor.…

Target speaker extraction, which aims at extracting a target speaker's voice from a mixture of voices using audio, visual or locational clues, has received much interest. Recently an audio-visual target speaker extraction has been proposed…

We propose a Beamformer-guided Target Speaker Extraction (BG-TSE) method to extract a target speaker's voice from a multi-channel recording informed by the direction of arrival of the target. The proposed method employs a front-end…

In recent years, deep learning-based approaches have significantly improved the performance of single-channel speech enhancement. However, due to the limitation of training data and computational complexity, real-time enhancement of…

We investigated the training of a shared model for both text-to-speech (TTS) and voice conversion (VC) tasks. We propose using an extended model architecture of Tacotron, that is a multi-source sequence-to-sequence model with a dual…

An important problem in ad-hoc microphone speech separation is how to guarantee the robustness of a system with respect to the locations and numbers of microphones. The former requires the system to be invariant to different indexing of the…

Audio-visual automatic speech recognition (AV-ASR) extends speech recognition by introducing the video modality as an additional source of information. In this work, the information contained in the motion of the speaker's mouth is used to…

Accent is an integral part of society, reflecting multiculturalism and shaping how individuals express identity. The majority of English speakers are non-native (L2) speakers, yet current Text-To-Speech (TTS) systems primarily model…
