Spectrogram features for audio and speech analysis
Ian McLoughlin, Lam Pham, Yan Song +7
Spectrogram-based representations have grown to dominate the feature space for deep learning audio analysis systems, and are often adopted for speech analysis also. Initially, the…
CLARITY: Contextual Linguistic Adaptation and Accent Retrieval for Dual-Bias Mitigation in Text-to-Speech Generation
Crystal Min Hui Poon, Pai Chet Ng, Xiaoxiao Miao +4
Instruction-guided text-to-speech (TTS) research has reached a maturity level where excellent speech generation quality is possible on demand, yet two coupled biases persist in red…
Detect Any Sound: Open-Vocabulary Sound Event Detection with Multi-Modal Queries
Pengfei Cai, Yan Song, Qing Gu +3
Most existing sound event detection~(SED) algorithms operate under a closed-set assumption, restricting their detection capabilities to predefined classes. While recent efforts hav…
An Efficient Transfer Learning Method Based on Adapter with Local Attributes for Speech Emotion Recognition
Haoyu Song, Ian McLoughlin, Qing Gu +2
Existing speech emotion recognition (SER) methods commonly suffer from the lack of high-quality large-scale corpus, partly due to the complex, psychological nature of emotion which…
