FAC-FACodec: Controllable Zero-Shot Foreign Accent Conversion with Factorized Speech Codec
Yurii Halychanskyi, Cameron Churchwell, Yutong Wen +1
Previous accent conversion (AC) methods, including foreign accent conversion (FAC), lack explicit control over the degree of modification. Because accent modification can alter the…
Audio Generation Through Score-Based Generative Modeling: Design Principles and Implementation
Ge Zhu, Yutong Wen, Zhiyao Duan
Diffusion models have emerged as powerful deep generative techniques, producing high-quality and diverse samples in applications in various domains including audio. While existing…
EDMSound: Spectrogram Based Diffusion Models for Efficient and High-Quality Audio Synthesis
Ge Zhu, Yutong Wen, Marc-André Carbonneau +1
Audio diffusion models can synthesize a wide variety of sounds. Existing models often operate on the latent domain with cascaded phase recovery modules to reconstruct waveform. Thi…
Mitigating Cross-Database Differences for Learning Unified HRTF Representation
Yutong Wen, You Zhang, Zhiyao Duan
Individualized head-related transfer functions (HRTFs) are crucial for accurate sound positioning in virtual auditory displays. As the acoustic measurement of HRTFs is resource-int…
