Speech enhancement and speech separation are two related tasks, whose purpose is to extract either one or more target speech signals, respectively, from a mixture of sounds generated by several sources. Traditionally, these tasks have been…

Speech enhancement and separation have been a long-standing problem, especially with the recent advances using a single microphone. Although microphones perform well in constrained settings, their performance for speech separation decreases…

Speech emotion recognition (SER) systems can exhibit gender-related performance disparities, but how such bias manifests in multilingual speech LLMs across languages and modalities is unclear. We introduce a novel multilingual, multimodal…

Fine-grained cross-modal alignment aims to establish precise local correspondences between vision and language, forming a cornerstone for visual question answering and related multimodal applications. Current approaches face challenges in…

Although preference optimization methods have improved reasoning performance in Large Language Models (LLMs), they often lack transparency regarding why one reasoning outcome is preferred over another. This limitation is especially critical…

Robots can adapt to user preferences by learning reward functions from demonstrations, but with limited data, reward models often overfit to spurious correlations and fail to generalize. This happens because demonstrations show robots how…

Unsupervised semantic segmentation aims to automatically partition images into semantically meaningful regions by identifying global semantic categories within an image corpus without any form of annotation. Building upon recent advances in…

Audio-Visual Semantic Segmentation (AVSS) aligns audio and video at the pixel level but requires costly per-frame annotations. We introduce Weakly Supervised Audio-Visual Semantic Segmentation (WSAVSS), which uses only video-level labels to…

Segmentation remains an important preprocessing step both in languages where "words" or other important syntactic/semantic units (like morphemes) are not clearly delineated by white space, as well as when dealing with continuous speech…

Perceptual sound matching (PSM) aims to find the input parameters to a synthesizer so as to best imitate an audio target. Deep learning for PSM optimizes a neural network to analyze and reconstruct prerecorded samples. In this context, our…

While astonishingly capable, large Language Models (LLM) can sometimes produce outputs that deviate from human expectations. Such deviations necessitate an alignment phase to prevent disseminating untruthful, toxic, or biased information.…

In recent years, exploring effective sound separation (SSep) techniques to improve overlapping sound event detection (SED) attracts more and more attention. Creating accurate separation signals to avoid the catastrophic error accumulation…

This paper proposes a neural network based speech separation method using spatially distributed microphones. Unlike with traditional microphone array settings, neither the number of microphones nor their spatial arrangement is known in…

Propelled by the breakthrough in deep generative models, audio-to-image generation has emerged as a pivotal cross-modal task that converts complex auditory signals into rich visual representations. However, previous works only focus on…

Multimodal Sentiment Analysis (MSA) integrates complementary features from text, video, and audio for robust emotion understanding in human interactions. However, models suffer from severe data scarcity and high annotation costs, severely…

Perceptual similarity representations enable music retrieval systems to determine which songs sound most similar to listeners. State-of-the-art approaches based on task-specific training via self-supervised metric learning show promising…

Recently, self-supervised learning methods based on masked latent prediction have proven to encode input data into powerful representations. However, during training, the learned latent space can be further transformed to extract…

We address the problem of acoustic source separation in a deep learning framework we call "deep clustering." Rather than directly estimating signals or masking functions, we train a deep network to produce spectrogram embeddings that are…

Since the advent of Deep Learning (DL), Speech Enhancement (SE) models have performed well under a variety of noise conditions. However, such systems may still introduce sonic artefacts, sound unnatural, and restrict the ability for a user…

Source separation can improve automatic speech recognition (ASR) under multi-party meeting scenarios by extracting single-speaker signals from overlapped speech. Despite the success of self-supervised learning models in single-channel…
