Dysarthric speech recognition is a challenging task as dysarthric data is limited and its acoustics deviate significantly from normal speech. Model-based speaker adaptation is a promising method by using the limited dysarthric speech to…

This paper proposes a flexible multichannel speech enhancement system with the main goal of improving robustness of automatic speech recognition (ASR) in noisy conditions. The proposed system combines a flexible neural mask estimator…

Speech enhancement is a fundamental challenge in signal processing, particularly when robustness is required across diverse acoustic conditions and microphone setups. Deep learning methods have been successful for speech enhancement, but…

In practical settings, a speaker recognition system needs to identify a speaker given a short utterance, while the enrollment utterance may be relatively long. However, existing speaker recognition models perform poorly with such short…

Many people are suffering from voice disorders, which can adversely affect the quality of their lives. In response, some researchers have proposed algorithms for automatic assessment of these disorders, based on voice signals. However,…

AI-generated speech is becoming increasingly used in everyday life, powering virtual assistants, accessibility tools, and other applications. However, it is also being exploited for malicious purposes such as impersonation, misinformation,…

This paper investigates the impact of array switching patterns on the accuracy of parameter estimation of multipath components for a time division multiplexed (TDM) channel sounder. To measure fast time-varying channels, the conventional…

Ambisonics encoding of microphone array signals can enable various spatial audio applications, such as virtual reality or telepresence, but it is typically designed for uniformly-spaced spherical microphone arrays. This paper proposes a…

Augmented listening devices such as hearing aids often perform poorly in noisy and reverberant environments with many competing sound sources. Large distributed microphone arrays can improve performance, but data from remote microphones…

Reconstructing the room transfer functions needed to calculate the complex sound field in a room has several important real-world applications. However, an unpractical number of microphones is often required. Recently, in addition to…

The performance of speaker diarization is strongly affected by its clustering algorithm at the test stage. However, it is known that clustering algorithms are sensitive to random noises and small variations, particularly when the clustering…

Deep learning-based speech enhancement has shown unprecedented performance in recent years. The most popular mono speech enhancement frameworks are end-to-end networks mapping the noisy mixture into an estimate of the clean speech. With…

This paper addresses the problem of multi-channel multi-speech separation based on deep learning techniques. In the short time Fourier transform domain, we propose an end-to-end narrow-band network that directly takes as input the…

Audio Telepresence (AT) aims to create an immersive experience of the audio scene at the far end for the user(s) at the near end. The application of AT could encompass scenarios with varying degrees of emphasis on signal enhancement and…

Spatial aliasing affects spaced microphone arrays, causing directional ambiguity above certain frequencies, degrading spatial and spectral accuracy of beamformers. Given the limitations of conventional signal processing and the scarcity of…

Though playing an essential role in smart home systems, smart speakers are vulnerable to voice spoofing attacks. Passive liveness detection, which utilizes only the collected audio rather than the deployed sensors to distinguish between…

The ground truth used for training image, video, or speech quality prediction models is based on the Mean Opinion Scores (MOS) obtained from subjective experiments. Usually, it is necessary to conduct multiple experiments, mostly with…

The attenuation of acoustic loudspeaker echoes remains to be one of the open challenges to achieve pleasant full-duplex hands free speech communication. In many modern signal enhancement interfaces, this problem is addressed by a linear…

Sounds recorded with smartphones or IoT devices often have partially unreliable observations caused by clipping, wind noise, and completely missing parts due to microphone failure and packet loss in data transmission over the network. In…

Microphone arrays are usually assumed to have rigid geometries: the microphones may move with respect to the sound field but remain fixed relative to each other. However, many useful arrays, such as those in wearable devices, have sensors…
