Recently, our proposed recurrent neural network (RNN) based all deep learning minimum variance distortionless response (ADL-MVDR) beamformer method yielded superior performance over the conventional MVDR by replacing the matrix inversion and eigenvalue decomposition with two recurrent neural networks. In this work, we present a self-attentive RNN beamformer to further improve our previous RNN-based beamformer by leveraging on the powerful modeling capability of self-attention. Temporal-spatial self-attention module is proposed to better learn the beamforming weights from the speech and noise spatial covariance matrices. The temporal self-attention module could help RNN to learn global statistics of covariance matrices. The spatial self-attention module is designed to attend on the cross-channel correlation in the covariance matrices. Furthermore, a multi-channel input with multi-speaker directional features and multi-speaker speech separation outputs (MIMO) model is developed to improve the inference efficiency. The evaluations demonstrate that our proposed MIMO self-attentive RNN beamformer improves both the automatic speech recognition (ASR) accuracy and the perceptual estimation of speech quality (PESQ) against prior arts.

We propose speaker separation using speaker inventories and estimated speech (SSUSIES), a framework leveraging speaker profiles and estimated speech for speaker separation. SSUSIES contains two methods, speaker separation using speaker inventories (S
SUSI) and speaker separation using estimated speech (SSUES). SSUSI performs speaker separation with the help of speaker inventory. By combining the advantages of permutation invariant training (PIT) and speech extraction, SSUSI significantly outperforms conventional approaches. SSUES is a widely applicable technique that can substantially improve speaker separation performance using the output of first-pass separation. We evaluate the models on both speaker separation and speech recognition metrics.
We present a novel source separation model to decompose asingle-channel speech signal into two speech segments belonging to two different speakers. The proposed model is a neural network based on residual blocks, and uses learnt speaker embeddings cr
eated from additional clean context recordings of the two speakers as input to assist in attributing the different time-frequency bins to the two speakers. In experiments, we show that the proposed model yields good performance in the source separation task, and outperforms the state-of-the-art baselines. Specifically, separating speech from the challenging VoxCeleb dataset, the proposed model yields 4.79dB signal-to-distortion ratio, 8.44dB signal-to-artifacts ratio and 7.11dB signal-to-interference ratio.
Recently, the research on ad-hoc microphone arrays with deep learning has drawn much attention, especially in speech enhancement and separation. Because an ad-hoc microphone array may cover such a large area that multiple speakers may locate far apar
t and talk independently, target-dependent speech separation, which aims to extract a target speaker from a mixed speech, is important for extracting and tracing a specific speaker in the ad-hoc array. However, this technique has not been explored yet. In this paper, we propose deep ad-hoc beamforming based on speaker extraction, which is to our knowledge the first work for target-dependent speech separation based on ad-hoc microphone arrays and deep learning. The algorithm contains three components. First, we propose a supervised channel selection framework based on speaker extraction, where the estimated utterance-level SNRs of the target speech are used as the basis for the channel selection. Second, we apply the selected channels to a deep learning based MVDR algorithm, where a single-channel speaker extraction algorithm is applied to each selected channel for estimating the mask of the target speech. We conducted an extensive experiment on a WSJ0-adhoc corpus. Experimental results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.
We present a joint audio-visual model for isolating a single speech signal from a mixture of sounds such as other speakers and background noise. Solving this task using only audio as input is extremely challenging and does not provide an association
of the separated speech signals with speakers in the video. In this paper, we present a deep network-based model that incorporates both visual and auditory signals to solve this task. The visual features are used to focus the audio on desired speakers in a scene and to improve the speech separation quality. To train our joint audio-visual model, we introduce AVSpeech, a new dataset comprised of thousands of hours of video segments from the Web. We demonstrate the applicability of our method to classic speech separation tasks, as well as real-world scenarios involving heated interviews, noisy bars, and screaming children, only requiring the user to specify the face of the person in the video whose speech they want to isolate. Our method shows clear advantage over state-of-the-art audio-only speech separation in cases of mixed speech. In addition, our model, which is speaker-independent (trained once, applicable to any speaker), produces better results than recent audio-visual speech separation methods that are speaker-dependent (require training a separate model for each speaker of interest).
Most speech separation methods, trying to separate all channel sources simultaneously, are still far from having enough general- ization capabilities for real scenarios where the number of input sounds is usually uncertain and even dynamic. In this w
ork, we employ ideas from auditory attention with two ears and propose a speaker and direction inferred speech separation network (dubbed SDNet) to solve the cocktail party problem. Specifically, our SDNet first parses out the respective perceptual representations with their speaker and direction characteristics from the mixture of the scene in a sequential manner. Then, the perceptual representations are utilized to attend to each corresponding speech. Our model gener- ates more precise perceptual representations with the help of spatial features and successfully deals with the problem of the unknown number of sources and the selection of outputs. The experiments on standard fully-overlapped speech separation benchmarks, WSJ0- 2mix, WSJ0-3mix, and WSJ0-2&3mix, show the effectiveness, and our method achieves SDR improvements of 25.31 dB, 17.26 dB, and 21.56 dB under anechoic settings. Our codes will be released at https://github.com/aispeech-lab/SDNet.
