Temporal Grounding (TG) aims to localize video segments corresponding to a textual query. Prior research predominantly focuses on single-segment retrieval. Real-world scenarios, however, often require localizing multiple disjoint segments for a single query—a setting we term **One-to-Many Temporal G…
Binaural speech enhancement (BSE) aims to jointly improve the speech quality and intelligibility of noisy signals received by hearing devices and preserve the spatial cues of the target for natural listening. Existing methods often suffer from the compromise between noise reduction (NR) capacity and…
Recent advancements in multimodal large language models (MLLM) have shown a strong ability in visual perception, reasoning abilities, and vision-language understanding. However, the visual matching ability of MLLMs is rarely studied, despite finding the visual correspondence of objects is essential…
Singing Voice Synthesis (SVS) aims to generate singing voices of high fidelity and expressiveness. Conventional SVS systems usually utilize an acoustic model to transform a music score into acoustic features, followed by a vocoder to reconstruct the singing voice. It was recently shown that end-to-e…
Advanced Audio-Visual Speech Recognition (AVSR) systems have been observed to be sensitive to missing video frames performing even worse than single-modality models. While applying the common dropout techniques to the video modality enhances robustness to missing frames it simultaneously results in…
Target speaker extraction (TSE) based on direction of arrival (DOA) has a wide range of applications in e.g., remote conferencing, hearing aids, in-car speech interaction. Due to the inherent phase uncertainty, existing TSE methods usually suffer from speaker confusion within specific frequency band…
The rapid progress in personalized speech generation technology, including personalized text-to-speech (TTS) and voice conversion (VC), poses a challenge in distinguishing between generated and real speech for human listeners, resulting in an urgent demand in protecting speakers' voices from malicio…
