Nowadays, there is a strong need to deploy the target speaker separation (TSS) model on mobile devices with a limitation of the model size and computational complexity. To better perform TSS for mobile voice communication, we first make a dual-channel dataset based on a specific scenario, LibriPhone. Specifically, to better mimic the real-case scenario, instead of simulating from the single-channel dataset, LibriPhone is made by simultaneously replaying pairs of utterances from LibriSpeech by two professional artificial heads and recording by two built-in microphones of the mobile. Then, we propose a lightweight time-frequency domain separation model, LSTM-Former, which is based on the LSTM framework with source-to-noise ratio (SI-SNR) loss. For the experiments on Libri-Phone, we explore the dual-channel LSTMFormer model and a single-channel version by a random single channel of Libri-Phone. Experimental result shows that the dual-channel LSTM-Former outperforms the single-channel LSTMFormer with relative 25% improvement. This work provides a feasible solution for the TSS task on mobile devices, playing back and recording multiple data sources in real application scenarios for getting dual-channel real data can assist the lightweight model to achieve higher performance.

Content and style representations have been widely studied in the field of style transfer. In this paper, we propose a new loss function using speaker content representation for audio source separation, and we call it speaker representation loss. The
objective is to extract the target speaker voice from the noisy input and also remove it from the residual components. Compared to the conventional spectral reconstruction, our proposed framework maximizes the use of target speaker information by minimizing the distance between the speaker representations of reference and source separation output. We also propose triplet speaker representation loss as an additional criterion to remove the target speaker information from residual spectrogram output. VoiceFilter framework is adopted to evaluate source separation performance using the VCTK database, and we achieved improved performances compared to the baseline loss function without any additional network parameters.
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.
Thanks to improvements in machine learning techniques, including deep learning, speech synthesis is becoming a machine learning task. To accelerate speech synthesis research, we are developing Japanese voice corpora reasonably accessible from not onl
y academic institutions but also commercial companies. In 2017, we released the JSUT corpus, which contains 10 hours of reading-style speech uttered by a single speaker, for end-to-end text-to-speech synthesis. For more general use in speech synthesis research, e.g., voice conversion and multi-speaker modeling, in this paper, we construct the JVS corpus, which contains voice data of 100 speakers in three styles (normal, whisper, and falsetto). The corpus contains 30 hours of voice data including 22 hours of parallel normal voices. This paper describes how we designed the corpus and summarizes the specifications. The corpus is available at our project page.
To date, mainstream target speech separation (TSS) approaches are formulated to estimate the complex ratio mask (cRM) of the target speech in time-frequency domain under supervised deep learning framework. However, the existing deep models for estima
ting cRM are designed in the way that the real and imaginary parts of the cRM are separately modeled using real-valued training data pairs. The research motivation of this study is to design a deep model that fully exploits the temporal-spectral-spatial information of multi-channel signals for estimating cRM directly and efficiently in complex domain. As a result, a novel TSS network is designed consisting of two modules, a complex neural spatial filter (cNSF) and an MVDR. Essentially, cNSF is a cRM estimation model and an MVDR module is cascaded to the cNSF module to reduce the nonlinear speech distortions introduced by neural network. Specifically, to fit the cRM target, all input features of cNSF are reformulated into complex-valued representations following the supervised learning paradigm. Then, to achieve good hierarchical feature abstraction, a complex deep neural network (cDNN) is delicately designed with U-Net structure. Experiments conducted on simulated multi-channel speech data demonstrate the proposed cNSF outperforms the baseline NSF by 12.1% scale-invariant signal-to-distortion ratio and 33.1% word error rate.
In this paper, we focus on improving the performance of the text-dependent speaker verification system in the scenario of limited training data. The speaker verification system deep learning based text-dependent generally needs a large scale text-dep
endent training data set which could be labor and cost expensive, especially for customized new wake-up words. In recent studies, voice conversion systems that can generate high quality synthesized speech of seen and unseen speakers have been proposed. Inspired by those works, we adopt two different voice conversion methods as well as the very simple re-sampling approach to generate new text-dependent speech samples for data augmentation purposes. Experimental results show that the proposed method significantly improves the Equal Error Rare performance from 6.51% to 4.51% in the scenario of limited training data.
