DAVE: A Decoupled Audio-Visual Enhancement Framework for Real-World Speech Separation

Wei Zhou, Wanyi Ning, Yinshang Guo +3

Audio-visual speech enhancement under real-world conditions remains challenging due to unreliable visual inputs and the lack of large-scale training data with realistic acoustic co…

Can Speech LLMs Think while Listening?

Yi-Jen Shih, Desh Raj, Chunyang Wu +6

Recent advances in speech large language models (speech LLMs) have enabled seamless spoken interactions, but these systems still struggle with complex reasoning tasks. Previously,…

Frozen Large Language Models Can Perceive Paralinguistic Aspects of Speech

Wonjune Kang, Junteng Jia, Chunyang Wu +8

This work studies the capabilities of a large language model (LLM) to understand paralinguistic aspects of speech without fine-tuning its weights. We utilize an end-to-end system w…

Token-Weighted RNN-T for Learning from Flawed Data

Gil Keren, Wei Zhou, Ozlem Kalinli

ASR models are commonly trained with the cross-entropy criterion to increase the probability of a target token sequence. While optimizing the probability of all tokens in the targe…
