The reverberation time (T60) and the direct-to-reverberant ratio (DRR) are commonly used to characterize room acoustic environments. Both parameters can be measured from an acoustic impulse response (AIR) or using blind estimation methods…

The ability to accurately estimate room impulse responses (RIRs) is integral to many applications of spatial audio processing. Regrettably, estimating the RIR using ambient signals, such as speech or music, remains a challenging problem due…

While automatic speech recognition (ASR) greatly benefits from data augmentation, the augmentation recipes themselves tend to be heuristic. In this paper, we address one of the heuristic approach associated with balancing the right amount…

Data-driven acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) methods, predominantly trained on synthetic or constrained real-world datasets, encounter performance declines in unseen echo scenarios, especially in real environments where echo paths are not…

As deeper and more complex models are developed for the task of sound event localization and detection (SELD), the demand for annotated spatial audio data continues to increase. Annotating field recordings with 360$^{\circ}$ video takes…

In the context of building acoustics and the acoustic diagnosis of an existing room, this paper introduces and investigates a new approach to estimate mean absorption coefficients solely from a room impulse response (RIR). This inverse…

Realistic sound simulation plays a critical role in many applications. A key element in sound simulation is the room impulse response (RIR), which characterizes how sound propagates from a source to a listener within a given space. Recent…

For augmented (AR) and virtual reality (VR) applications, accurate estimates of the acoustic characteristics of a scene are critical for creating a sense of immersion. However, directly estimating Room-impulse Responses (RIRs) from scene…

This paper presents BUT ReverbDB - a dataset of real room impulse responses (RIR), background noises and re-transmitted speech data. The retransmitted data includes LibriSpeech test-clean, 2000 HUB5 English evaluation and part of 2010 NIST…

This paper focuses on room fingerprinting, a task involving the analysis of an audio recording to determine the specific volume and shape of the room in which it was captured. While it is relatively straightforward to determine the basic…

An immersive acoustic experience enabled by spatial audio is just as crucial as the visual aspect in creating realistic virtual environments. However, existing methods for room impulse response estimation rely either on data-demanding…

We present a Generative Adversarial Network (GAN) based room impulse response generator (IR-GAN) for generating realistic synthetic room impulse responses (RIRs). IR-GAN extracts acoustic parameters from captured real-world RIRs and uses…

Room Impulse Responses (RIRs) accurately characterize acoustic properties of indoor environments and play a crucial role in applications such as speech enhancement, speech recognition, and audio rendering in augmented reality (AR) and…

Audio adversarial examples are audio files that have been manipulated to fool an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system, while still sounding benign to a human listener. Most methods to generate such samples are based on a two-step…

We investigate the impact of more realistic room simulation for training far-field keyword spotting systems without fine-tuning on in-domain data. To this end, we study the impact of incorporating the following factors in the room impulse…

Changes in room acoustics, such as modifications to surface absorption or the insertion of a scattering object, significantly impact measured room impulse responses (RIRs). These changes can affect the performance of systems used in echo…

As humans, we hear sound every second of our life. The sound we hear is often affected by the acoustics of the environment surrounding us. For example, a spacious hall leads to more reverberation. Room Impulse Responses (RIR) are commonly…

A study is presented in which a contrastive learning approach is used to extract low-dimensional representations of the acoustic environment from single-channel, reverberant speech signals. Convolution of room impulse responses (RIRs) with…

In real-world acoustic scenarios, there often are multiple sound sources present in a room. These sources are situated in various locations and produce sounds that reach the listener from multiple directions. The presence of multiple…

Recent neural room impulse response (RIR) estimators typically comprise an encoder for reference audio analysis and a generator for RIR synthesis. Especially, it is the performance of the generator that directly influences the overall…
