Sound speed heterogeneities can create aberrations in B-mode ultrasound images by inducing tissue-dependent delays and diffractive effects that conventional beamforming does not incorporate. By using the Fourier split-step method to…

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…

Self-supervised learning approaches have lately achieved great success on a broad spectrum of machine learning problems. In the field of speech processing, one of the most successful recent self-supervised models is wav2vec 2.0. In this…

Image denoising is essential in low-level vision applications such as photography and automated driving. Existing methods struggle with distinguishing complex noise patterns in real-world scenes and consume significant computational…

We aim to explain whether a stress memory task has a significant impact on tonal coarticulation. We contribute a novel approach to analyse tonal coarticulation in phonetics, where several f0 contours are compared with respect to their…

Robust speaker verification under noisy conditions remains an open challenge. Conventional deep learning methods learn a robust unified speaker representation space against diverse background noise and achieve significant improvement. In…

In this study, we investigate self-supervised representation learning for speaker verification (SV). First, we examine a simple contrastive learning approach (SimCLR) with a momentum contrastive (MoCo) learning framework, where the MoCo…

Significant progress has recently been made in speaker diarisation after the introduction of d-vectors as speaker embeddings extracted from neural network (NN) speaker classifiers for clustering speech segments. To extract better-performing…

This paper proposes a method for extracting speaker embedding for each speaker from a variable-length recording containing multiple speakers. Speaker embeddings are crucial not only for speaker recognition but also for various multi-speaker…

Acoustic beamforming models typically assume wide-sense stationarity of speech signals within short time frames. However, voiced speech is better modeled as a cyclostationary (CS) process, a random process whose mean and autocorrelation are…

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…

This paper describes the integration of weighted delay-and-sum beamforming with speech source localization using image processing and robot head visual servoing for source tracking. We take into consideration the fact that the directivity…

Voice disorders affect a large portion of the population, especially heavy voice users such as teachers or call-center workers. Most voice disorders can be treated effectively with behavioral voice therapy, which teaches patients to replace…

This article presents a method for improving a keyword spotter (KWS) algorithm in noisy environments. Although beamforming (BF) and adaptive noise cancellation (ANC) techniques are robust in some conditions, they may degrade the performance…

In this paper, we present the Blind Speech Separation and Dereverberation (BSSD) network, which performs simultaneous speaker separation, dereverberation and speaker identification in a single neural network. Speaker separation is guided by…

The use of deep neural networks (DNN) has dramatically elevated the performance of automatic speaker verification (ASV) over the last decade. However, ASV systems can be easily neutralized by spoofing attacks. Therefore, the Spoofing-Aware…

Humans are adept at leveraging visual cues from lip movements for recognizing speech in adverse listening conditions. Audio-Visual Speech Recognition (AVSR) models follow similar approach to achieve robust speech recognition in noisy…

This paper proposes a novel Sequence-to-Sequence Neural Diarization (S2SND) framework to perform online and offline speaker diarization. It is developed from the sequence-to-sequence architecture of our previous target-speaker voice…

One of the main difficulties in echo cancellation is the fact that the learning rate needs to vary according to conditions such as double-talk and echo path change. Several methods have been proposed to vary the learning. In this paper we…

Most state-of-the-art Deep Learning systems for speaker verification are based on speaker embedding extractors. These architectures are commonly composed of a feature extractor front-end together with a pooling layer to encode…
