Free-form, text-based audio editing remains a persistent challenge, despite progress in inversion-based neural methods. Current approaches rely on slow inversion procedures, limiting their practicality. We present a virtual-consistency…

Own voice pickup for hearables in noisy environments benefits from using both an outer and an in-ear microphone outside and inside the occluded ear. Due to environmental noise recorded at both microphones, and amplification of the own voice…

Achieving and maintaining the performance of ubiquitous (Automatic Speech Recognition) ASR system is a real challenge. The main objective of this work is to develop a method that will improve and show the consistency in performance of…

Target speech extraction is a technique to extract the target speaker's voice from mixture signals using a pre-recorded enrollment utterance that characterize the voice characteristics of the target speaker. One major difficulty of target…

This paper introduces a cross-lingual dubbing system that translates speech from one language to another while preserving key characteristics such as duration, speaker identity, and speaking speed. Despite the strong translation quality of…

Several recent end-to-end text-to-speech (TTS) models enabling single-stage training and parallel sampling have been proposed, but their sample quality does not match that of two-stage TTS systems. In this work, we present a parallel…

Neural speech editing advancements have raised concerns about their misuse in spoofing attacks. Traditional partially edited speech corpora primarily focus on cut-and-paste edits, which, while maintaining speaker consistency, often…

The difficulty of acquiring abundant, high-quality data, especially in multi-lingual contexts, has sparked interest in addressing low-resource scenarios. Moreover, current literature rely on fixed expressions from language IDs, which…

Recent advances with self-supervised learning have allowed speech recognition systems to achieve state-of-the-art (SOTA) word error rates (WER) while requiring only a fraction of the labeled training data needed by its predecessors.…

Acoustics-to-word models are end-to-end speech recognizers that use words as targets without relying on pronunciation dictionaries or graphemes. These models are notoriously difficult to train due to the lack of linguistic knowledge. It is…

We present an end-to-end method for transforming audio from one style to another. For the case of speech, by conditioning on speaker identities, we can train a single model to transform words spoken by multiple people into multiple target…

We introduce a novel pipeline for joint audio-visual editing that enhances the coherence between edited video and its accompanying audio. Our approach first applies state-of-the-art video editing techniques to produce the target video, then…

Audio editing involves the arbitrary manipulation of audio content through precise control. Although text-guided diffusion models have made significant advancements in text-to-audio generation, they still face challenges in finding a…

Human talkers often address listeners with language-comprehension challenges, such as hard-of-hearing or non-native adults, by globally slowing down their speech. However, it remains unclear whether this strategy actually makes speech more…

Parallel text-to-speech (TTS) models have recently enabled fast and highly-natural speech synthesis. However, they typically require external alignment models, which are not necessarily optimized for the decoder as they are not jointly…

We propose a method for adding sound-guided visual effects to specific regions of videos with a zero-shot setting. Animating the appearance of the visual effect is challenging because each frame of the edited video should have visual…

End-to-end (E2E) speech-to-text translation (ST) often depends on pretraining its encoder and/or decoder using source transcripts via speech recognition or text translation tasks, without which translation performance drops substantially.…

This report explores the challenge of enhancing expressiveness control in Text-to-Speech (TTS) models by augmenting a frozen pretrained model with a Diffusion Model that is conditioned on joint semantic audio/text embeddings. The paper…

This work explores how self-supervised learning can be universally used to discover speaker-specific features towards enabling personalized speech enhancement models. We specifically address the few-shot learning scenario where access to…

Direct speech-to-text translation systems encounter an important drawback in data scarcity. A common solution consists on pretraining the encoder on automatic speech recognition, hence losing efficiency in the training process. In this…
