The goal of voice conversion is to transform the speech of a source speaker to sound like that of a reference speaker while preserving the original content. A key challenge is to extract disentangled linguistic content from the source and voice style from the reference. While existing approaches lev…
Previous works in zero-shot text-to-speech (ZS-TTS) have attempted to enhance its systems by enlarging the training data through crowd-sourcing or augmenting existing speech data. However, the use of low-quality data has led to a decline in the overall system performance. To avoid such degradation,…
This paper proposes a multi-emotion, multi-lingual, and multi-speaker text-to-speech (MELS-TTS) system, employing disentangled style tokens for effective emotion transfer. In speech encompassing various attributes, such as emotional state, speaker identity, and linguistic style, disentangling these…
In this paper, we present a streaming end-to-end speech recognition model based on Monotonic Chunkwise Attention (MoCha) jointly trained with enhancement layers. Even though the MoCha attention enables streaming speech recognition with recognition accuracy comparable to a full attention-based approa…
Content and style representations have been widely studied in the field of style transfer. In this paper, we propose a new loss function using speaker content representation for audio source separation, and we call it speaker representation loss. The objective is to extract the target speaker voice…
In recent acoustic scene classification (ASC) research field, training and test device channel mismatch have become an issue for the real world implementation. To address the issue, this paper proposes a channel domain conversion using factorized hierarchical variational autoencoder. Proposed method…
Deep Neural Network (DNN) based transfer learning has been shown to be effective in Visual Object Classification (VOC) for complementing the deficit of target domain training samples by adapting classifiers that have been pre-trained for other large-scaled DataBase (DB). Although there exists an abu…
