Target sound extraction (TSE) is the task of extracting a target sound specified by a query from an audio mixture. Much prior research has focused on the problem setting under the Fully Matched Query (FMQ) condition, where the query…

Audio-visual active speaker detection (AV-ASD) aims to identify which visible face is speaking in a scene with one or more persons. Most existing AV-ASD methods prioritize capturing speech-lip correspondence. However, there is a noticeable…

Target sound extraction (TSE) consists of isolating a desired sound from a mixture of arbitrary sounds using clues to identify it. A TSE system requires solving two problems at once, identifying the target source and extracting the target…

Audio-Visual Target Speaker Extraction (AVTSE) aims to separate a target speaker's voice from a mixed audio signal using the corresponding visual cues. While most existing AVTSE methods rely exclusively on frontal-view videos, this…

Target speaker extraction (TSE) aims to isolate a desired speaker's voice from a multi-speaker mixture using auxiliary information such as a reference utterance. Although recent advances in diffusion and flow-matching models have improved…

Confidence estimation of predictions from an End-to-End (E2E) Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) model benefits ASR's downstream and upstream tasks. Class-probability-based confidence scores do not accurately represent the quality of…

Audio-visual speech enhancement (AV-SE) aims to enhance degraded speech along with extra visual information such as lip videos, and has been shown to be more effective than audio-only speech enhancement. This paper proposes the…

Sound separation (SS) and target sound extraction (TSE) are fundamental techniques for addressing complex acoustic scenarios. While existing SS methods struggle with determining the unknown number of sound sources, TSE approaches require…

Target speech extraction (TSE) aims to recover a target speaker's voice from a mixture. While recent text-prompted approaches have shown promise, most approaches assume fully overlapped mixtures, limiting insight into behavior across…

Audio-Visual Target Speaker Extraction (AVTSE) is crucial for cocktail party scenarios. Leveraging multiple cues --such as utterance-level speaker embeddings or steady face images, and frame-level lip motion or facial expression features…

Automatic speech quality assessment has raised more attention as an alternative or support to traditional perceptual clinical evaluation. However, most research so far only gains good results on simple tasks such as binary classification,…

Image retrieval using spoken language cues has emerged as a promising direction in multimodal perception, yet leveraging speech in multi-speaker scenarios remains challenging. We propose a novel Target Speaker Speech-Image Retrieval task…

Target Speech Extraction (TSE) aims to isolate a target speaker's voice from a mixture of multiple speakers by leveraging speaker-specific cues, typically provided as auxiliary audio (a.k.a. cue audio). Although recent advancements in TSE…

This paper investigates the use of relative cues for text-based target speech extraction (TSE). We first provide a theoretical justification for relative cues from the perspectives of human perception and label quantization, showing that…

Language Model (LM)-based generative modeling has emerged as a promising direction for TSE, offering potential for improved generalization and high-fidelity speech. We present GenTSE, a two-stage decoder-only generative LM approach for TSE:…

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) has gained remarkable successes thanks to recent advances of deep learning, but it usually degrades significantly under real-world noisy conditions. Recent works introduce speech enhancement (SE) as…

Target sound extraction (TSE) aims to extract the sound part of a target sound event class from a mixture audio with multiple sound events. The previous works mainly focus on the problems of weakly-labelled data, jointly learning and new…

The goal of text-queried target sound extraction (TSE) is to extract from a mixture a sound source specified with a natural-language caption. While it is preferable to have access to large-scale text-audio pairs to address a variety of text…

End-to-end Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems based on neural networks have seen large improvements in recent years. The availability of large scale hand-labeled datasets and sufficient computing resources made it possible to train…

In this paper, we propose long short term memory speech enhancement network (LSTMSE-Net), an audio-visual speech enhancement (AVSE) method. This innovative method leverages the complementary nature of visual and audio information to boost…
