Recently, fake audio detection has gained significant attention, as advancements in speech synthesis and voice conversion have increased the vulnerability of automatic speaker verification (ASV) systems to spoofing attacks. A key challenge…

The rise of AI-driven generative models has enabled the creation of highly realistic speech deepfakes - synthetic audio signals that can imitate target speakers' voices - raising critical security concerns. Existing methods for detecting…

The present paper proposes a waveform boundary detection system for audio spoofing attacks containing partially manipulated segments. Partially spoofed/fake audio, where part of the utterance is replaced, either with synthetic or natural…

In this paper, we present UR-AIR system submission to the logical access (LA) and the speech deepfake (DF) tracks of the ASVspoof 2021 Challenge. The LA and DF tasks focus on synthetic speech detection (SSD), i.e. detecting text-to-speech…

Current audio deepfake detection has achieved remarkable performance using diverse deep learning architectures such as ResNet, and has seen further improvements with the introduction of large models (LMs) like Wav2Vec. The success of large…

Noise robustness is essential for deploying automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems in real-world environments. One way to reduce the effect of noise interference is to employ a preprocessing module that conducts speech enhancement, and…

Distributed learning, particularly variants of distributed stochastic gradient descent (DSGD), are widely employed to speed up training by leveraging computational resources of several workers. However, in practise, communication delay…

Spoofing detection for automatic speaker verification (ASV), which is to discriminate between live speech and attacks, has received increasing attentions recently. However, all the previous studies have been done on the clean data without…

Despite strong empirical performance for image classification, deep neural networks are often regarded as ``black boxes'' and they are difficult to interpret. On the other hand, sparse convolutional models, which assume that a signal can be…

ASVspoof 5 is the fifth edition in a series of challenges which promote the study of speech spoofing and deepfake detection solutions. A significant change from previous challenge editions is a new crowdsourced database collected from a…

In recent years, speech processing algorithms have seen tremendous progress primarily due to the deep learning renaissance. This is especially true for speech separation where the time-domain audio separation network (TasNet) has led to…

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…

Sparse autoencoders (SAEs) provide a powerful mechanism for decomposing the dense representations produced by Large Language Models (LLMs) into interpretable latent features. We posit that SAEs constitute a natural foundation for Learned…

Recently proposed speech recognition systems are designed to predict using representations generated by their top layers, employing greedy decoding which isolates each timestep from the rest of the sequence. Aiming for improved performance,…

Generalisation -- the ability of a model to perform well on unseen data -- is crucial for building reliable deepfake detectors. However, recent studies have shown that the current audio deepfake models fall short of this desideratum. In…

Automatic Speaker Verification (ASV) systems are increasingly used in voice bio-metrics for user authentication but are susceptible to logical and physical spoofing attacks, posing security risks. Existing research mainly tackles logical or…

Artificial Intelligence-generated content has become increasingly popular, yet its malicious use, particularly the deepfakes, poses a serious threat to public trust and discourse. While deepfake detection methods achieve high predictive…

Artefacts that differentiate spoofed from bona-fide utterances can reside in spectral or temporal domains. Their reliable detection usually depends upon computationally demanding ensemble systems where each subsystem is tuned to some…

Dense embeddings deliver strong retrieval performance but often lack interpretability and controllability. This paper introduces a novel approach using sparse autoencoders (SAE) to interpret and control dense embeddings via the learned…

It has been long known that sparsity is an effective inductive bias for learning efficient representation of data in vectors with fixed dimensionality, and it has been explored in many areas of representation learning. Of particular…
