We propose a straightforward and cost-effective method to perform diffuse soundfield measurements for calibrating the magnitude response of a microphone array. Typically, such calibration is performed in a diffuse soundfield created in reverberation chambers, an expensive and time-consuming process. A method is proposed for obtaining diffuse field measurements in untreated environments. First, a closed-form expression for the spatial correlation of a wideband signal in a diffuse field is derived. Next, we describe a practical procedure for obtaining the diffuse field response of a microphone array in the presence of a non-diffuse soundfield by the introduction of random perturbations in the microphone location. Experimental spatial correlation data obtained is compared with the theoretical model, confirming that it is possible to obtain diffuse field measurements in untreated environments with relatively few loudspeakers. A 30 second test signal played from 4-8 loudspeakers is shown to be sufficient in obtaining a diffuse field measurement using the proposed method. An Eigenmike is then successfully calibrated at two different geographical locations.

A stream attention framework has been applied to the posterior probabilities of the deep neural network (DNN) to improve the far-field automatic speech recognition (ASR) performance in the multi-microphone configuration. The stream attention scheme h
as been realized through an attention vector, which is derived by predicting the ASR performance from the phoneme posterior distribution of individual microphone stream, focusing the recognizers attention to more reliable microphones. Investigation on the various ASR performance measures has been carried out using the real recorded dataset. Experiments results show that the proposed framework has yielded substantial improvements in word error rate (WER).
Multichannel processing is widely used for speech enhancement but several limitations appear when trying to deploy these solutions to the real-world. Distributed sensor arrays that consider several devices with a few microphones is a viable alternati
ve that allows for exploiting the multiple devices equipped with microphones that we are using in our everyday life. In this context, we propose to extend the distributed adaptive node-specific signal estimation approach to a neural networks framework. At each node, a local filtering is performed to send one signal to the other nodes where a mask is estimated by a neural network in order to compute a global multi-channel Wiener filter. In an array of two nodes, we show that this additional signal can be efficiently taken into account to predict the masks and leads to better speech enhancement performances than when the mask estimation relies only on the local signals.
A crucial aspect for the successful deployment of audio-based models in-the-wild is the robustness to the transformations introduced by heterogeneous acquisition conditions. In this work, we propose a method to perform one-shot microphone style trans
fer. Given only a few seconds of audio recorded by a target device, MicAugment identifies the transformations associated to the input acquisition pipeline and uses the learned transformations to synthesize audio as if it were recorded under the same conditions as the target audio. We show that our method can successfully apply the style transfer to real audio and that it significantly increases model robustness when used as data augmentation in the downstream tasks.
We propose BeamTransformer, an efficient architecture to leverage beamformers edge in spatial filtering and transformers capability in context sequence modeling. BeamTransformer seeks to optimize modeling of sequential relationship among signals from
different spatial direction. Overlapping speech detection is one of the tasks where such optimization is favorable. In this paper we effectively apply BeamTransformer to detect overlapping segments. Comparing to single-channel approach, BeamTransformer exceeds in learning to identify the relationship among different beam sequences and hence able to make predictions not only from the acoustic signals but also the localization of the source. The results indicate that a successful incorporation of microphone array signals can lead to remarkable gains. Moreover, BeamTransformer takes one step further, as speech from overlapped speakers have been internally separated into different beams.
In natural language processing (NLP), the semantic similarity task requires large-scale, high-quality human-annotated labels for fine-tuning or evaluation. By contrast, in cases of music similarity, such labels are expensive to collect and largely de
pendent on the annotators artistic preferences. Recent research has demonstrated that embedding calibration technique can greatly increase semantic similarity performance of the pre-trained language model without fine-tuning. However, it is yet unknown which calibration method is the best and how much performance improvement can be achieved. To address these issues, we propose using composer information to construct labels for automatically evaluating music similarity. Under this paradigm, we discover the optimal combination of embedding calibration which achieves superior metrics than the baseline methods.
