Discrete Diffusion for Generative Modeling of Text-Aligned Speech Tokens
Pin-Jui Ku, He Huang, Jean-Marie Lemercier +3
This paper introduces a discrete diffusion model (DDM) framework for text-aligned speech tokenization and reconstruction. By replacing the auto-regressive speech decoder with a dis…
Streaming Sortformer: Speaker Cache-Based Online Speaker Diarization with Arrival-Time Ordering
Ivan Medennikov, Taejin Park, Weiqing Wang +5
This paper presents a streaming extension for the Sortformer speaker diarization framework, whose key property is the arrival-time ordering of output speakers. The proposed approac…
Recent Trends in Distant Conversational Speech Recognition: A Review of CHiME-7 and 8 DASR Challenges
Samuele Cornell, Christoph Boeddeker, Taejin Park +9
The CHiME-7 and 8 distant speech recognition (DASR) challenges focus on multi-channel, generalizable, joint automatic speech recognition (ASR) and diarization of conversational spe…
Speaker Targeting via Self-Speaker Adaptation for Multi-talker ASR
Weiqing Wang, Taejin Park, Ivan Medennikov +6
We propose a self-speaker adaptation method for streaming multi-talker automatic speech recognition (ASR) that eliminates the need for explicit speaker queries. Unlike conventional…
