Regularized Entropy Information Adaptation with Temporal-Awareness Networks for Simultaneous Speech Translation
Joseph Liu, Nameer Hirschkind, Xiao Yu +1
Simultaneous Speech Translation (SimulST) requires balancing high translation quality with low latency. Recent work introduced REINA, a method that trains a Read/Write policy based…
Taxonomy-Adaptive Moderation Model with Robust Guardrails for Large Language Models
Mahesh Kumar Nandwana, Youngwan Lim, Joseph Liu +3
Large Language Models (LLMs) are typically aligned for safety during the post-training phase; however, they may still generate inappropriate outputs that could potentially pose ris…
REINA: Regularized Entropy Information-Based Loss for Efficient Simultaneous Speech Translation
Nameer Hirschkind, Joseph Liu, Xiao Yu +1
Simultaneous Speech Translation (SimulST) systems stream in audio while simultaneously emitting translated text or speech. Such systems face the significant challenge of balancing…
SmoothCache: A Universal Inference Acceleration Technique for Diffusion Transformers
Joseph Liu, Joshua Geddes, Ziyu Guo +2
Diffusion Transformers (DiT) have emerged as powerful generative models for various tasks, including image, video, and speech synthesis. However, their inference process remains co…
Enhancing Multilingual Voice Toxicity Detection with Speech-Text Alignment
Joseph Liu, Mahesh Kumar Nandwana, Janne Pylkkönen +2
Toxicity classification for voice heavily relies on the semantic content of speech. We propose a novel framework that utilizes cross-modal learning to integrate the semantic embedd…
Diffusion Synthesizer for Efficient Multilingual Speech to Speech Translation
Nameer Hirschkind, Xiao Yu, Mahesh Kumar Nandwana +9
We introduce DiffuseST, a low-latency, direct speech-to-speech translation system capable of preserving the input speaker's voice zero-shot while translating from multiple source l…
The VOiCES from a Distance Challenge 2019 Evaluation Plan
Mahesh Kumar Nandwana, Julien van Hout, Mitchell McLaren +3
The "VOiCES from a Distance Challenge 2019" is designed to foster research in the area of speaker recognition and automatic speech recognition (ASR) with the special focus on singl…
Voices Obscured in Complex Environmental Settings (VOICES) corpus
Colleen Richey, Maria A. Barrios, Zeb Armstrong +11
This paper introduces the Voices Obscured In Complex Environmental Settings (VOICES) corpus, a freely available dataset under Creative Commons BY 4.0. This dataset will promote spe…
