Emotion-Aware Prefix: Towards Explicit Emotion Control in Voice Conversion Models
Haoyuan Yang, Mu Yang, Jiamin Xie +2
Recent advances in zero-shot voice conversion have exhibited potential in emotion control, yet the performance is suboptimal or inconsistent due to their limited expressive capacit…
Thinking in Directivity: Speech Large Language Model for Multi-Talker Directional Speech Recognition
Jiamin Xie, Ju Lin, Yiteng Huang +8
Recent studies have demonstrated that prompting large language models (LLM) with audio encodings enables effective speech recognition capabilities. However, the ability of Speech L…
Bridging the Modality Gap: Softly Discretizing Audio Representation for LLM-based Automatic Speech Recognition
Mu Yang, Szu-Jui Chen, Jiamin Xie +1
One challenge of integrating speech input with large language models (LLMs) stems from the discrepancy between the continuous nature of audio data and the discrete token-based para…
Dynamic ASR Pathways: An Adaptive Masking Approach Towards Efficient Pruning of A Multilingual ASR Model
Jiamin Xie, Ke Li, Jinxi Guo +7
Neural network pruning offers an effective method for compressing a multilingual automatic speech recognition (ASR) model with minimal performance loss. However, it entails several…
