In this paper, we present RT-GCC-NMF: a real-time (RT), two-channel blind speech enhancement algorithm that combines the non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) dictionary learning algorithm with the generalized cross-correlation (GCC)…
One of the most challenging scenarios for smart speakers is multi-talker, when target speech from the desired speaker is mixed with interfering speech from one or more speakers. A smart assistant needs to determine which voice to recognize…
Audio super-resolution aims to recover missing high-frequency details from bandwidth-limited low-resolution audio, thereby improving the naturalness and perceptual quality of the reconstructed signal. However, most existing methods directly…
StreamVoice has recently pushed the boundaries of zero-shot voice conversion (VC) in the streaming domain. It uses a streamable language model (LM) with a context-aware approach to convert semantic features from automatic speech recognition…
With the growing requirement for natural human-computer interaction, speech-based systems receive increasing attention as speech is one of the most common forms of daily communication. However, the existing speech models still experience…
Deep learning-based speech enhancement has seen huge improvements and recently also expanded to full band audio (48 kHz). However, many approaches have a rather high computational complexity and require big temporal buffers for real time…
Most speech enhancement algorithms make use of the short-time Fourier transform (STFT), which is a simple and flexible time-frequency decomposition that estimates the short-time spectrum of a signal. However, the duration of short STFT…
Deploying speech enhancement (SE) systems in wearable devices, such as smart glasses, is challenging due to the limited computational resources on the device. Although deep learning methods have achieved high-quality results, their…
Recent advances in Audio-Visual Speech Recognition (AVSR) have led to unprecedented achievements in the field, improving the robustness of this type of system in adverse, noisy environments. In most cases, this task has been addressed…
Video Variational Autoencoder (VAE) encodes videos into a low-dimensional latent space, becoming a key component of most Latent Video Diffusion Models (LVDMs) to reduce model training costs. However, as the resolution and duration 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…
Zero-shot voice conversion is becoming an increasingly popular research topic, as it promises the ability to transform speech to sound like any speaker. However, relatively little work has been done on end-to-end methods for this task,…
In this paper, we address the unsupervised speech enhancement problem based on recurrent variational autoencoder (RVAE). This approach offers promising generalization performance over the supervised counterpart. Nevertheless, the involved…
Noise suppression (NS) algorithms are effective in improving speech quality in many cases. However, aggressive noise suppression can damage the target speech, reducing both speech intelligibility and quality despite removing the noise. This…
Visual speech recognition models extract visual features in a hierarchical manner. At the lower level, there is a visual front-end with a limited temporal receptive field that processes the raw pixels depicting the lips or faces. At the…
Video-to-speech synthesis is the task of reconstructing the speech signal from a silent video of a speaker. Most established approaches to date involve a two-step process, whereby an intermediate representation from the video, such as a…
Prior works on improving speech quality with visual input typically study each type of auditory distortion separately (e.g., separation, inpainting, video-to-speech) and present tailored algorithms. This paper proposes to unify these…
This paper proposes a new unsupervised audio-visual speech enhancement (AVSE) approach that combines a diffusion-based audio-visual speech generative model with a non-negative matrix factorization (NMF) noise model. First, the diffusion…
Streaming ASR with strict latency constraints is required in many speech recognition applications. In order to achieve the required latency, streaming ASR models sacrifice accuracy compared to non-streaming ASR models due to lack of future…
Low-Light Video Enhancement (LLVE) seeks to restore dynamic or static scenes plagued by severe invisibility and noise. In this paper, we present an innovative video decomposition strategy that incorporates view-independent and…
