While existing speech audio codecs designed for compression exploit limited forms of temporal redundancy and allow for multi-scale representations, they tend to represent all features of audio in the same way. In contrast, generative voice…

We propose a unified approach to data-driven source-filter modeling using a single neural network for developing a neural vocoder capable of generating high-quality synthetic speech waveforms while retaining flexibility of the source-filter…

Recovering high-frequency components lost to bandwidth constraints is crucial for applications ranging from telecommunications to high-fidelity audio on limited resources. We introduce NDSI-BWE, a new adversarial Band Width Extension (BWE)…

We introduce BSD-GAN, a novel multi-branch and scale-disentangled training method which enables unconditional Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) to learn image representations at multiple scales, benefiting a wide range of generation…

Wireless telephone speech is usually limited to the 300-3400 Hz band, which reduces its quality. There is thus a growing demand for wideband speech systems that transmit from 50 Hz to 8000 Hz. This paper presents an algorithm to generate…

Comparing spoken segments is a central operation to speech processing. Traditional approaches in this area have favored frame-level dynamic programming algorithms, such as dynamic time warping, because they require no supervision, but they…

Studies have shown that in noisy acoustic environments, providing binaural signals to the user of an assistive listening device may improve speech intelligibility and spatial awareness. This paper presents a binaural speech enhancement…

This paper proposes SEFGAN, a Deep Neural Network (DNN) combining maximum likelihood training and Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) for efficient speech enhancement (SE). For this, a DNN is trained to synthesize the enhanced speech…

Binaural speech enhancement (BSE) aims to jointly improve the speech quality and intelligibility of noisy signals received by hearing devices and preserve the spatial cues of the target for natural listening. Existing methods often suffer…

Voice conversion is to generate a new speech with the source content and a target voice style. In this paper, we focus on one general setting, i.e., non-parallel many-to-many voice conversion, which is close to the real-world scenario. As…

Creating universal speaker encoders which are robust for different acoustic and speech duration conditions is a big challenge today. According to our observations systems trained on short speech segments are optimal for short phrase speaker…

The joint training of speech enhancement and speaker embedding networks for speaker recognition is widely adopted under noisy acoustic environments. While effective, this paradigm often fails to leverage the generalization and robustness…

Speech enhancement is widely used as a front-end to improve the speech quality in many audio systems, while it is hard to extract the target speech in multi-talker conditions without prior information on the speaker identity. It was shown…

We present BigCodec, a low-bitrate neural speech codec. While recent neural speech codecs have shown impressive progress, their performance significantly deteriorates at low bitrates (around 1 kbps). Although a low bitrate inherently…

Most of the deep learning-based speech enhancement models are learned in a supervised manner, which implies that pairs of noisy and clean speech are required during training. Consequently, several noisy speeches recorded in daily life…

Generative semantic communication models are reshaping semantic communication frameworks by moving beyond pixel-wise optimization to align with human perception. However, many existing approaches prioritize image-level perceptual quality,…

This paper proposes a framework for modeling sound change that combines deep learning and iterative learning. Acquisition and transmission of speech is modeled by training generations of Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) on unannotated…

Speech dereverberation is an important issue for many real-world speech processing applications. Among the techniques developed, the weighted prediction error (WPE) algorithm has been widely adopted and advanced over the last decade, which…

Deep generative models have achieved significant progress in speech synthesis to date, while high-fidelity singing voice synthesis is still an open problem for its long continuous pronunciation, rich high-frequency parts, and strong…

Deep neural networks have been applied in wireless communications system to intelligently adapt to dynamically changing channel conditions, while the users are still under the threat of the malicious attacks due to the broadcasting property…
