Audio Diarization: A New Paradigm for Exploring Audio Recordings with Unknown Event Classes
Alexander Werning, Reinhold Haeb-Umbach
We propose a new task, audio diarization. The motivation is that there are applications, such as audio monitoring in an unknown environment, where initially the sound event classes…
Speech Quality Embeddings for Improved Detection and Classification of Degradations in Speech Signals
Michael Kuhlmann, Tobias Cord-Landwehr, Reinhold Haeb-Umbach
Automatic subjective speech quality assessment (SSQA) traditionally estimates speech quality on an utterance or system level. While this resolution was adequate for older transmiss…
Disentangling Pitch and Creak for Speaker Identity Preservation in Speech Synthesis
Frederik Rautenberg, Jana Wiechmann, Petra Wagner +1
We introduce a system capable of faithfully modifying the perceptual voice quality of creak while preserving the speaker's perceived identity. While it is well known that high crea…
Speech Quality-Based Localization of Low-Quality Speech and Text-to-Speech Synthesis Artefacts
Michael Kuhlmann, Alexander Werning, Thilo von Neumann +1
A large number of works view the automatic assessment of speech from an utterance- or system-level perspective. While such approaches are good in judging overall quality, they cann…
Synthesizing speech with selected perceptual voice qualities - A case study with creaky voice
Frederik Rautenberg, Fritz Seebauer, Jana Wiechmann +3
The control of perceptual voice qualities in a text-to-speech (TTS) system is of interest for applications where unmanipu- lated and manipulated speech probes can serve to illustra…
On the Application of Diffusion Models for Simultaneous Denoising and Dereverberation
Adrian Meise, Tobias Cord-Landwehr, Reinhold Haeb-Umbach
Diffusion models have been shown to achieve natural-sounding enhancement of speech degraded by noise or reverberation. However, their simultaneous denoising and dereverberation cap…
Towards Frame-level Quality Predictions of Synthetic Speech
Michael Kuhlmann, Fritz Seebauer, Petra Wagner +1
While automatic subjective speech quality assessment has witnessed much progress, an open question is whether an automatic quality assessment at frame resolution is possible. This…
Spatio-spectral diarization of meetings by combining TDOA-based segmentation and speaker embedding-based clustering
Tobias Cord-Landwehr, Tobias Gburrek, Marc Deegen +1
We propose a spatio-spectral, combined model-based and data-driven diarization pipeline consisting of TDOA-based segmentation followed by embedding-based clustering. The proposed s…
