LERD: Latent Event-Relational Dynamics for Neurodegenerative Classification
Yicheng Feng, Hairong Chen, Ziyu Jia +2
Alzheimer's disease (AD) alters brain electrophysiology and disrupts multichannel EEG dynamics, making accurate and clinically useful EEG-based diagnosis increasingly important for…
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…
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…
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…
TalkVid: A Large-Scale Diversified Dataset for Audio-Driven Talking Head Synthesis
Shunian Chen, Hejin Huang, Yexin Liu +10
Audio-driven talking head synthesis has achieved remarkable photorealism, yet state-of-the-art (SOTA) models exhibit a critical failure: they lack generalization to the full spectr…
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…
