Contrastive audio-language pretraining yields powerful joint representations, yet a persistent audio-text modality gap limits the benefits of coupling multimodal encoders with large language models (LLMs). We present Diffusion-Link, a diffusion-based modality-bridging module that generatively maps a…
Background noise considerably reduces the accuracy and reliability of speaker verification (SV) systems. These challenges can be addressed using a speech enhancement system as a front-end module. Recently, diffusion probabilistic models (DPMs) have exhibited remarkable noise-compensation capabilitie…
Audio deepfake detection (ADD) is the task of detecting spoofing attacks generated by text-to-speech or voice conversion systems. Spoofing evidence, which helps to distinguish between spoofed and bona-fide utterances, might exist either locally or globally in the input features. To capture these, th…
The objective of this paper is to combine multiple frame-level features into a single utterance-level representation considering pair-wise relationships. For this purpose, we propose a novel graph attentive feature aggregation module by interpreting each frame-level feature as a node of a graph. The…
Despite achieving satisfactory performance in speaker verification using deep neural networks, variable-duration utterances remain a challenge that threatens the robustness of systems. To deal with this issue, we propose a speaker verification system called RawNeXt that can handle input raw waveform…
