We propose a Beamformer-guided Target Speaker Extraction (BG-TSE) method to extract a target speaker's voice from a multi-channel recording informed by the direction of arrival of the target. The proposed method employs a front-end…

Speech separation, the task of isolating multiple speech sources from a mixed audio signal, remains challenging in noisy environments. In this paper, we propose a generative correction method to enhance the output of a discriminative…

Target speaker extraction (TSE) aims to isolate a specific speaker's voice from multi-speaker mixtures. Despite strong benchmark results, real-world performance often degrades due to different interacting factors. Previous curriculum…

While the use of deep neural networks has significantly boosted speaker recognition performance, it is still challenging to separate speakers in poor acoustic environments. Here speech enhancement methods have traditionally allowed improved…

Generative models have excelled in audio tasks using approaches such as language models, diffusion, and flow matching. However, existing generative approaches for speech enhancement (SE) face notable challenges: language model-based methods…

We propose SE-Bridge, a novel method for speech enhancement (SE). After recently applying the diffusion models to speech enhancement, we can achieve speech enhancement by solving a stochastic differential equation (SDE). Each SDE…

Target speaker extraction (TSE) aims to recover a target speaker's speech from a mixture using a reference utterance as a cue. Most TSE systems adopt conditional auto-encoder architectures with one-step inference. Inspired by test-time…

Pre-trained self-supervised learning (SSL) models have achieved remarkable success in various speech tasks. However, their potential in target speech extraction (TSE) has not been fully exploited. TSE aims to extract the speech of a target…

Recently, the end-to-end training approach for neural beamformer-supported multi-channel ASR has shown its effectiveness in multi-channel speech recognition. However, the integration of multiple modules makes it more difficult to perform…

Although deep learning (DL) has achieved notable progress in speech enhancement (SE), further research is still required for a DL-based SE system to adapt effectively and efficiently to particular speakers. In this study, we propose a novel…

Target Speaker Extraction (TSE) aims to isolate a specific speaker's voice from a mixture, guided by a pre-recorded enrollment. While TSE bypasses the global permutation ambiguity of blind source separation, it remains vulnerable to speaker…

Target Speech Extraction (TSE) traditionally relies on explicit clues about the speaker's identity like enrollment audio, face images, or videos, which may not always be available. In this paper, we propose a text-guided TSE model StyleTSE…

We present ESPnet-SE, which is designed for the quick development of speech enhancement and speech separation systems in a single framework, along with the optional downstream speech recognition module. ESPnet-SE is a new project which…

Speaker independent continuous speech separation (SI-CSS) is a task of converting a continuous audio stream, which may contain overlapping voices of unknown speakers, into a fixed number of continuous signals each of which contains no…

Recently, the end-to-end approach has been successfully applied to multi-speaker speech separation and recognition in both single-channel and multichannel conditions. However, severe performance degradation is still observed in the…

Recently, the end-to-end approach has proven its efficacy in monaural multi-speaker speech recognition. However, high word error rates (WERs) still prevent these systems from being used in practical applications. On the other hand, the…

This paper addresses the problem of multi-channel multi-speech separation based on deep learning techniques. In the short time Fourier transform domain, we propose an end-to-end narrow-band network that directly takes as input the…

Speech enhancement (SE) aims to improve the clarity, intelligibility, and quality of speech signals for various speech enabled applications. However, air-conducted (AC) speech is highly susceptible to ambient noise, particularly in low…

We propose speaker separation using speaker inventories and estimated speech (SSUSIES), a framework leveraging speaker profiles and estimated speech for speaker separation. SSUSIES contains two methods, speaker separation using speaker…

Augmented listening devices such as hearing aids often perform poorly in noisy and reverberant environments with many competing sound sources. Large distributed microphone arrays can improve performance, but data from remote microphones…
