Sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) voice conversion (VC) models are attractive owing to their ability to convert prosody. Nonetheless, without sufficient data, seq2seq VC models can suffer from unstable training and mispronunciation problems in…

Connectionist temporal classification (CTC) provides an end-to-end acoustic model (AM) training strategy. CTC learns accurate AMs without time-aligned phonetic transcription, but sometimes fails to converge, especially in…

Recently, connectionist temporal classification (CTC)-based end-to-end (E2E) automatic speech recognition (ASR) models have achieved impressive results, especially with the development of self-supervised learning. However, E2E ASR models…

Unified Speech Recognition (USR) has emerged as a semi-supervised framework for training a single model for audio, visual, and audiovisual speech recognition, achieving state-of-the-art results on in-distribution benchmarks. However, its…

Current transfer learning methods for high-dimensional linear regression assume feature alignment across domains, restricting their applicability to semantically matched features. In many real-world scenarios, however, distinct features in…

In many machine learning applications, it is necessary to meaningfully aggregate, through alignment, different but related datasets. Optimal transport (OT)-based approaches pose alignment as a divergence minimization problem: the aim is to…

Unsupervised Change Detection (UCD) in multimodal Remote Sensing (RS) images remains a difficult challenge due to the inherent spatio-temporal complexity within data, and the heterogeneity arising from different imaging sensors. Inspired by…

Optimal transport (OT) is a widely used technique for distribution alignment, with applications throughout the machine learning, graphics, and vision communities. Without any additional structural assumptions on trans-port, however, OT can…

Annotating automatic target recognition (ATR) is a highly challenging task, primarily due to the unavailability of labeled data in the target domain. Hence, it is essential to construct an optimal target domain classifier by utilizing the…

We apply sequence-to-sequence model to mitigate the impact of speech recognition errors on open domain end-to-end dialog generation. We cast the task as a domain adaptation problem where ASR transcriptions and original text are in two…

Entity alignment aims to discover unique equivalent entity pairs with the same meaning across different knowledge graphs (KGs). Existing models have focused on projecting KGs into a latent embedding space so that inherent semantics between…

With the increasing adoption of vision-language models (VLMs) in critical decision-making systems such as healthcare or autonomous driving, the calibration of their uncertainty estimates becomes paramount. Yet, this dimension has been…

The success of retrieval-augmented language models in various natural language processing (NLP) tasks has been constrained in automatic speech recognition (ASR) applications due to challenges in constructing fine-grained audio-text…

Conventional automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems trained from frame-level alignments can easily leverage posterior fusion to improve ASR accuracy and build a better single model with knowledge distillation. End-to-end ASR systems…

In this work, we perform an empirical comparison among the CTC, RNN-Transducer, and attention-based Seq2Seq models for end-to-end speech recognition. We show that, without any language model, Seq2Seq and RNN-Transducer models both…

Understanding the distance between human languages is central to linguistics, anthropology, and tracing human evolutionary history. Yet, while linguistics has long provided rich qualitative accounts of cross-linguistic variation, a unified…

Self-supervised-learning-based pre-trained models for speech data, such as Wav2Vec 2.0 (W2V2), have become the backbone of many speech tasks. In this paper, to achieve speaker diarisation and speech recognition using a single model, a…

Sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) based ASR systems have shown state-of-the-art performances while having clear advantages in terms of simplicity. However, comparisons are mostly done on speaker independent (SI) ASR systems, though speaker…

Utilizing air-traffic control (ATC) data for downstream natural-language processing tasks requires preprocessing steps. Key steps are the transcription of the data via automatic speech recognition (ASR) and speaker diarization, respectively…

Fixed point networks are dynamic networks that encode stimuli via distinct output patterns. Although such networks are omnipresent in neural systems, their structures are typically unknown or poorly characterized. It is therefore valuable…
