Anomalous Sound Detection (ASD) is often formulated as a machine attribute classification task, a strategy necessitated by the common scenario where only normal data is available for training. However, the exhaustive collection of machine attribute labels is laborious and impractical. To address the…
Sound event localization and detection with source distance estimation (3D SELD) involves not only identifying the sound category and its direction-of-arrival (DOA) but also predicting the source's distance, aiming to provide full information about the sound position. This paper proposes a multi-sta…
In multi-speaker scenarios, automatic speech recognition (ASR) models rely on pre-processed audio after speaker separation. However, when the target speaker is not accurately separated, ASR models face limitations in reaching their peak performance. To address this issue, we propose a speaker-adapti…
Audio-visual speech enhancement (AVSE) was shown to be superior over conventional audio-only counterpart for improving the speech quality. However, most existing AVSE models are heavyweight in the sense of parameter count, which is inappropriate for the deployment and practical applications. In this…
In this paper, we propose an effective sound event detection (SED) method based on the audio spectrogram transformer (AST) model, pretrained on the large-scale AudioSet for audio tagging (AT) task, termed AST-SED. Pretrained AST models have recently shown promise on DCASE2022 challenge task4 where t…
Wav2vec2.0 is a popular self-supervised pre-training framework for learning speech representations in the context of automatic speech recognition (ASR). It was shown that wav2vec2.0 has a good robustness against the domain shift, while the noise robustness is still unclear. In this work, we therefor…
In this paper, we design a novel front-end processing system for speaker diarization under realistic conditions with challenging background noises. To cope with diversified environments, we first extend our perviously proposed progressive learning based speech enhancement model by adding multi-task…
The conventional speaker recognition frameworks (e.g., the i-vector and CNN-based approach) have been successfully applied to various tasks when the channel of the enrolment dataset is similar to that of the test dataset. However, in real-world applications, mismatch always exists between these two…
