Reconstructing the speech audio envelope from scalp neural recordings (EEG) is a central task for decoding a listener's attentional focus in applications like neuro-steered hearing aids. Current methods for this reconstruction, however, face challenges with fidelity and noise. Prevailing approaches…
In this paper, we introduce SoloAudio, a novel diffusion-based generative model for target sound extraction (TSE). Our approach trains latent diffusion models on audio, replacing the previous U-Net backbone with a skip-connected Transformer that operates on latent features. SoloAudio supports both a…
Common target sound extraction (TSE) approaches primarily relied on discriminative approaches in order to separate the target sound while minimizing interference from the unwanted sources, with varying success in separating the target from the background. This study introduces DPM-TSE, a generative…
Auditory Attention Decoding (AAD) algorithms play a crucial role in isolating desired sound sources within challenging acoustic environments directly from brain activity. Although recent research has shown promise in AAD using shallow representations such as auditory envelope and spectrogram, there…
