Noise Adaptive Speech Enhancement using Domain Adversarial Training

1 code implementation19 Jul 2018 Chien-Feng Liao, Yu Tsao, Hung-Yi Lee, Hsin-Min Wang

The proposed noise adaptive SE system contains an encoder-decoder-based enhancement model and a domain discriminator model.

Incorporating Symbolic Sequential Modeling for Speech Enhancement

no code implementations30 Apr 2019 Chien-Feng Liao, Yu Tsao, Xugang Lu, Hisashi Kawai

In this study, the symbolic sequences for acoustic signals are obtained as discrete representations with a Vector Quantized Variational Autoencoder algorithm.

Learning with Learned Loss Function: Speech Enhancement with Quality-Net to Improve Perceptual Evaluation of Speech Quality

1 code implementation6 May 2019 Szu-Wei Fu, Chien-Feng Liao, Yu Tsao

Utilizing a human-perception-related objective function to train a speech enhancement model has become a popular topic recently.

MetricGAN: Generative Adversarial Networks based Black-box Metric Scores Optimization for Speech Enhancement

5 code implementations13 May 2019 Szu-Wei Fu, Chien-Feng Liao, Yu Tsao, Shou-De Lin

Adversarial loss in a conditional generative adversarial network (GAN) is not designed to directly optimize evaluation metrics of a target task, and thus, may not always guide the generator in a GAN to generate data with improved metric scores.

Incorporating Broad Phonetic Information for Speech Enhancement

no code implementations13 Aug 2020 Yen-Ju Lu, Chien-Feng Liao, Xugang Lu, Jeih-weih Hung, Yu Tsao

In noisy conditions, knowing speech contents facilitates listeners to more effectively suppress background noise components and to retrieve pure speech signals.

Transformers with Competitive Ensembles of Independent Mechanisms

no code implementations27 Feb 2021 Alex Lamb, Di He, Anirudh Goyal, Guolin Ke, Chien-Feng Liao, Mirco Ravanelli, Yoshua Bengio

In this work we explore a way in which the Transformer architecture is deficient: it represents each position with a large monolithic hidden representation and a single set of parameters which are applied over the entire hidden representation.

KaraSinger: Score-Free Singing Voice Synthesis with VQ-VAE using Mel-spectrograms

no code implementations8 Oct 2021 Chien-Feng Liao, Jen-Yu Liu, Yi-Hsuan Yang

In this paper, we propose a novel neural network model called KaraSinger for a less-studied singing voice synthesis (SVS) task named score-free SVS, in which the prosody and melody are spontaneously decided by machine.
