Recent studies on end-to-end (E2E) speech generation with large language models (LLMs) have attracted significant community attention, with multiple works extending text-based LLMs to generate discrete speech tokens. Existing E2E approaches primarily fall into two categories: (1) Methods that genera…
The Speaker Diarization and Recognition (SDR) task aims to predict ``who spoke when and what
We introduce 3D-Speaker-Toolkit, an open-source toolkit for multimodal speaker verification and diarization, designed for meeting the needs of academic researchers and industrial practitioners. The 3D-Speaker-Toolkit adeptly leverages the combined strengths of acoustic, semantic, and visual data, se…
In sound event detection (SED), overlapping sound events pose a significant challenge, as certain events can be easily masked by background noise or other events, resulting in poor detection performance. To address this issue, we propose the text-queried SED (TQ-SED) framework. Specifically, we firs…
Speaker diarization aims to segment an audio stream into homogeneous partitions based on speaker identity, playing a crucial role in speech comprehension and analysis. Mainstream speaker diarization systems rely only on acoustic information, making the task particularly challenging in complex acoust…
Training speaker-discriminative and robust speaker verification systems without explicit speaker labels remains a persistent challenge. In this paper, we propose a novel self-supervised speaker verification approach, Self-Distillation Prototypes Network (SDPN), which effectively facilitates self-sup…
Speaker diarization is a classic task in speech processing and is crucial in multi-party scenarios such as meetings and conversations. Current mainstream speaker diarization approaches consider acoustic information only, which result in performance degradation when encountering adverse acoustic envi…
Training robust speaker verification systems without speaker labels has long been a challenging task. Previous studies observed a large performance gap between self-supervised and fully supervised methods. In this paper, we apply a non-contrastive self-supervised learning framework called DIstillati…
Unsupervised clustering on speakers is becoming increasingly important for its potential uses in semi-supervised learning. In reality, we are often presented with enormous amounts of unlabeled data from multi-party meetings and discussions. An effective unsupervised clustering approach would allow u…
