Speaker Identity Preservation in Dysarthric Speech Reconstruction by Adversarial Speaker Adaptation

no code implementations18 Feb 2022 Disong Wang, Songxiang Liu, Xixin Wu, Hui Lu, Lifa Sun, Xunying Liu, Helen Meng

The primary task of ASA fine-tunes the SE with the speech of the target dysarthric speaker to effectively capture identity-related information, and the secondary task applies adversarial training to avoid the incorporation of abnormal speaking patterns into the reconstructed speech, by regularizing the distribution of reconstructed speech to be close to that of reference speech with high quality.
