WeSep: A Modular and Cue-Composable Framework for Target Speaker Extraction
Ke Zhang, Xiaoyang Yu, Haoyu Li +3
The study of Target Speaker Extraction (TSE) aims to isolate a desired speaker from overlapping speech mixture given auxiliary cues. Existing systems are typically designed for spe…
SLT 2026 REAL-TSE Challenge: Real-world Target Speaker Extraction from Conversational Recordings
Shuai Wang, Zihan Qian, Ke Zhang +9
We introduce the REAL-TSE Challenge, an IEEE SLT 2026 satellite challenge on target speaker extraction~(TSE) from real conversational recordings. Given a multi-speaker mixture and…
Detect, Attend and Extract: Keyword Guided Target Speaker Extraction
Haoyu Li, Yu Xi, Yidi Jiang +5
Target speaker extraction (TSE) aims to extract the speech of a target speaker from mixtures containing multiple competing speakers. Conventional TSE systems predominantly rely on…
Direct Preference Optimization for Speech Autoregressive Diffusion Models
Zhijun Liu, Dongya Jia, Xiaoqiang Wang +4
Autoregressive diffusion models (ARDMs) have recently been applied to speech generation, achieving state-of-the-art (SOTA) performance in zero-shot text-to-speech. By autoregressiv…
Accent Normalization Using Self-Supervised Discrete Tokens with Non-Parallel Data
Qibing Bai, Sho Inoue, Shuai Wang +3
Accent normalization converts foreign-accented speech into native-like speech while preserving speaker identity. We propose a novel pipeline using self-supervised discrete tokens a…
SpeechRefiner: Towards Perceptual Quality Refinement for Front-End Algorithms
Sirui Li, Shuai Wang, Zhijun Liu +3
Speech pre-processing techniques such as denoising, de-reverberation, and separation, are commonly employed as front-ends for various downstream speech processing tasks. However, t…
