ZipCodec: Ultra-Low-Frame-Rate Streaming Speech Coding
Luca Della Libera, Cem Subakan, Mirco Ravanelli
Neural audio codecs are a fundamental component of modern speech generation systems. While recent codecs achieve increasingly low bitrates, reducing frame rate remains challenging,…
Exploring Token-Space Manipulation in Latent Audio Tokenizers
Francesco Paissan, Luca Della Libera, Mirco Ravanelli +1
Neural audio codecs provide compact discrete representations for speech generation and manipulation. However, most codecs organize tokens as frame-level sequences, making it diffic…
Listen First, Then Answer: Timestamp-Grounded Speech Reasoning
Jihoon Jeong, Pooneh Mousavi, Mirco Ravanelli +1
Large audio-language models (LALMs) can generate reasoning chains for their predictions, but it remains unclear whether these reasoning chains remain grounded in the input audio. I…
LL-SDR: Low-Latency Speech enhancement through Discrete Representations
Jingyi Li, Luca Della Libera, Mirco Ravanelli +2
Many speech enhancement (SE) methods rely on continuous representations. Recently, discrete audio tokens have been explored to enable autoregressive generation for SE. However, it…
Toward Faithful Explanations in Acoustic Anomaly Detection
Maab Elrashid, Anthony Deschênes, Cem Subakan +3
Interpretability is essential for user trust in real-world anomaly detection applications. However, deep learning models, despite their strong performance, often lack transparency.…
Virtual Consistency for Audio Editing
Matthieu Cervera, Francesco Paissan, Mirco Ravanelli +1
Free-form, text-based audio editing remains a persistent challenge, despite progress in inversion-based neural methods. Current approaches rely on slow inversion procedures, limiti…
