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.

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) have shown significant improvements in recent years for speech enhancement. However, the model complexity and inference time cost of RNNs are much higher than deep feed-forward neural networks (DNNs). Therefore, these
limit the applications of speech enhancement. This paper proposes a deep time delay neural network (TDNN) for speech enhancement with full data learning. The TDNN has excellent potential for capturing long range temporal contexts, which utilizes a modular and incremental design. Besides, the TDNN preserves the feed-forward structure so that its inference cost is comparable to standard DNN. To make full use of the training data, we propose a full data learning method for speech enhancement. More specifically, we not only use the noisy-to-clean (input-to-target) to train the enhanced model, but also the clean-to-clean and noise-to-silence data. Therefore, all of the training data can be used to train the enhanced model. Our experiments are conducted on TIMIT dataset. Experimental results show that our proposed method could achieve a better performance than DNN and comparable even better performance than BLSTM. Meanwhile, compared with the BLSTM, the proposed method drastically reduce the inference time.
Existing generative adversarial networks (GANs) for speech enhancement solely rely on the convolution operation, which may obscure temporal dependencies across the sequence input. To remedy this issue, we propose a self-attention layer adapted from n
on-local attention, coupled with the convolutional and deconvolutional layers of a speech enhancement GAN (SEGAN) using raw signal input. Further, we empirically study the effect of placing the self-attention layer at the (de)convolutional layers with varying layer indices as well as at all of them when memory allows. Our experiments show that introducing self-attention to SEGAN leads to consistent improvement across the objective evaluation metrics of enhancement performance. Furthermore, applying at different (de)convolutional layers does not significantly alter performance, suggesting that it can be conveniently applied at the highest-level (de)convolutional layer with the smallest memory overhead.
Distortion of the underlying speech is a common problem for single-channel speech enhancement algorithms, and hinders such methods from being used more extensively. A dictionary based speech enhancement method that emphasizes preserving the underlyin
g speech is proposed. Spectral patches of clean speech are sampled and clustered to train a dictionary. Given a noisy speech spectral patch, the best matching dictionary entry is selected and used to estimate the noise power at each time-frequency bin. The noise estimation step is formulated as an outlier detection problem, where the noise at each bin is assumed present only if it is an outlier to the corresponding bin of the best matching dictionary entry. This framework assigns higher priority in removing spectral elements that strongly deviate from a typical spoken unit stored in the trained dictionary. Even without the aid of a separate noise model, this method can achieve significant noise reduction for various non-stationary noises, while effectively preserving the underlying speech in more challenging noisy environments.
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.
Speech enhancement aims to obtain speech signals with high intelligibility and quality from noisy speech. Recent work has demonstrated the excellent performance of time-domain deep learning methods, such as Conv-TasNet. However, these methods can be
degraded by the arbitrary scales of the waveform induced by the scale-invariant signal-to-noise ratio (SI-SNR) loss. This paper proposes a new framework called Time-domain Speech Enhancement Generative Adversarial Network (TSEGAN), which is an extension of the generative adversarial network (GAN) in time-domain with metric evaluation to mitigate the scaling problem, and provide model training stability, thus achieving performance improvement. In addition, we provide a new method based on objective function mapping for the theoretical analysis of the performance of Metric GAN, and explain why it is better than the Wasserstein GAN. Experiments conducted demonstrate the effectiveness of our proposed method, and illustrate the advantage of Metric GAN.
