Deep clustering (DC) and utterance-level permutation invariant training (uPIT) have been demonstrated promising for speaker-independent speech separation. DC is usually formulated as two-step processes: embedding learning and embedding clustering, which results in complex separation pipelines and a huge obstacle in directly optimizing the actual separation objectives. As for uPIT, it only minimizes the chosen permutation with the lowest mean square error, doesnt discriminate it with other permutations. In this paper, we propose a discriminative learning method for speaker-independent speech separation using deep embedding features. Firstly, a DC network is trained to extract deep embedding features, which contain each sources information and have an advantage in discriminating each target speakers. Then these features are used as the input for uPIT to directly separate the different sources. Finally, uPIT and DC are jointly trained, which directly optimizes the actual separation objectives. Moreover, in order to maximize the distance of each permutation, the discriminative learning is applied to fine tuning the whole model. Our experiments are conducted on WSJ0-2mix dataset. Experimental results show that the proposed models achieve better performances than DC and uPIT for speaker-independent speech separation.

We present an experimental investigation into the effectiveness of transfer learning and bottleneck feature extraction in detecting COVID-19 from audio recordings of cough, breath and speech. This type of screening is non-contact, does not require
specialist medical expertise or laboratory facilities and can be deployed on inexpensive consumer hardware. We use datasets that contain recordings of coughing, sneezing, speech and other noises, but do not contain COVID-19 labels, to pre-train three deep neural networks: a CNN, an LSTM and a Resnet50. These pre-trained networks are subsequently either fine-tuned using smaller datasets of coughing with COVID-19 labels in the process of transfer learning, or are used as bottleneck feature extractors. Results show that a Resnet50 classifier trained by this transfer learning process delivers optimal or near-optimal performance across all datasets achieving areas under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC AUC) of 0.98, 0.94 and 0.92 respectively for all three sound classes (coughs, breaths and speech). This indicates that coughs carry the strongest COVID-19 signature, followed by breath and speech. Our results also show that applying transfer learning and extracting bottleneck features using the larger datasets without COVID-19 labels led not only to improve performance, but also to minimise the standard deviation of the classifier AUCs among the outer folds of the leave-$p$-out cross-validation, indicating better generalisation. We conclude that deep transfer learning and bottleneck feature extraction can improve COVID-19 cough, breath and speech audio classification, yielding automatic classifiers with higher accuracy.
Multi-channel deep clustering (MDC) has acquired a good performance for speech separation. However, MDC only applies the spatial features as the additional information. So it is difficult to learn mutual relationship between spatial and spectral feat
ures. Besides, the training objective of MDC is defined at embedding vectors, rather than real separated sources, which may damage the separation performance. In this work, we propose a deep attention fusion method to dynamically control the weights of the spectral and spatial features and combine them deeply. In addition, to solve the training objective problem of MDC, the real separated sources are used as the training objectives. Specifically, we apply the deep clustering network to extract deep embedding features. Instead of using the unsupervised K-means clustering to estimate binary masks, another supervised network is utilized to learn soft masks from these deep embedding features. Our experiments are conducted on a spatialized reverberant version of WSJ0-2mix dataset. Experimental results show that the proposed method outperforms MDC baseline and even better than the oracle ideal binary mask (IBM).
Music source separation with deep neural networks typically relies only on amplitude features. In this paper we show that additional phase features can improve the separation performance. Using the theoretical relationship between STFT phase and ampl
itude, we conjecture that derivatives of the phase are a good feature representation opposed to the raw phase. We verify this conjecture experimentally and propose a new DNN architecture which combines amplitude and phase. This joint approach achieves a better signal-to distortion ratio on the DSD100 dataset for all instruments compared to a network that uses only amplitude features. Especially, the bass instrument benefits from the phase information.
As the cornerstone of other important technologies, such as speech recognition and speech synthesis, speech enhancement is a critical area in audio signal processing. In this paper, a new deep learning structure for speech enhancement is demonstrated
. The model introduces a full attention mechanism to a bidirectional sequence-to-sequence method to make use of latent information after each focal frame. This is an extension of the previous attention-based RNN method. The proposed bidirectional attention-based architecture achieves better performance in terms of speech quality (PESQ), compared with OM-LSA, CNN-LSTM, T-GSA and the unidirectional attention-based LSTM baseline.
This paper describes a dataset and protocols for evaluating continuous speech separation algorithms. Most prior studies on speech separation use pre-segmented signals of artificially mixed speech utterances which are mostly emph{fully} overlapped, an
d the algorithms are evaluated based on signal-to-distortion ratio or similar performance metrics. However, in natural conversations, a speech signal is continuous, containing both overlapped and overlap-free components. In addition, the signal-based metrics have very weak correlations with automatic speech recognition (ASR) accuracy. We think that not only does this make it hard to assess the practical relevance of the tested algorithms, it also hinders researchers from developing systems that can be readily applied to real scenarios. In this paper, we define continuous speech separation (CSS) as a task of generating a set of non-overlapped speech signals from a textit{continuous} audio stream that contains multiple utterances that are emph{partially} overlapped by a varying degree. A new real recorded dataset, called LibriCSS, is derived from LibriSpeech by concatenating the corpus utterances to simulate a conversation and capturing the audio replays with far-field microphones. A Kaldi-based ASR evaluation protocol is also established by using a well-trained multi-conditional acoustic model. By using this dataset, several aspects of a recently proposed speaker-independent CSS algorithm are investigated. The dataset and evaluation scripts are available to facilitate the research in this direction.
