In virtual reality (VR), sound sources are convolved with room impulse responses (RIRs) to create immersive and dynamic audio experiences. Assessing the quality of spatial audio synthesis in VR is challenging. Subjective listening tests are accurate, but they are time-consuming and costly. This pape…
Speech bandwidth extension (BWE) has demonstrated promising performance in enhancing the perceptual speech quality in real communication systems. Most existing BWE researches primarily focus on fixed upsampling ratios, disregarding the fact that the effective bandwidth of captured audio may fluctuat…
This paper describes our submission to the fourth Acoustic Echo Cancellation (AEC) Challenge, which is part of ICASSP 2023 Signal Processing Grand Challenge. The proposed system is developed based on our earlier system submitted to the ICASSP 2022 AEC challenge with significant latency and network s…
Deep learning based wideband (16kHz) acoustic echo cancellation (AEC) approaches have surpassed traditional methods. This work proposes a deep hierarchical fusion (DHF) network with intra-network and inter-network fusion to further improve the wideband AEC performance. Meanwhile, this work extends t…
Speech enhancement methods based on deep learning have surpassed traditional methods. While many of these new approaches are operating on the wideband (16kHz) sample rate, a new fullband (48kHz) speech enhancement system is proposed in this paper. Compared to the existing full-band systems that util…
The L3DAS22 Challenge is aimed at encouraging the development of machine learning strategies for 3D speech enhancement and 3D sound localization and detection in office-like environments. This challenge improves and extends the tasks of the L3DAS21 edition <sup xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math…
Deep learning-based wideband (16kHz) speech enhancement approaches have surpassed traditional methods. This work further extends the existing wideband systems to enable full-band (48kHz) speech enhancement while simultaneously ensuring automatic speech recognition compatibility and optionally, perso…
