The capability of the human to pay attention to both coarse and fine-grained regions has been applied to computer vision tasks. Motivated by that, we propose a collaborative learning framework in the complex domain for monaural noise suppression. The proposed system consists of two principal modules, namely spectral feature extraction module (FEM) and stacked glance-gaze modules (GGMs). In FEM, the UNet-block is introduced after each convolution layer, enabling the feature recalibration from multiple scales. In each GGM, we decompose the multi-target optimization in the complex spectrum into two sub-tasks. Specifically, the glance path aims to suppress the noise in the magnitude domain to obtain a coarse estimation, and meanwhile, the gaze path attempts to compensate for the lost spectral detail in the complex domain. The two paths work collaboratively and facilitate spectral estimation from complementary perspectives. Besides, by repeatedly unfolding the GGMs, the intermediate result can be iteratively refined across stages and lead to the ultimate estimation of the spectrum. The experiments are conducted on the WSJ0-SI84, DNS-Challenge dataset, and Voicebank+Demand dataset. Results show that the proposed approach achieves state-of-the-art performance over previous advanced systems on the WSJ0-SI84 and DNS-Challenge dataset, and meanwhile, competitive performance is achieved on the Voicebank+Demand corpus.

In this paper, we propose a multi-channel network for simultaneous speech dereverberation, enhancement and separation (DESNet). To enable gradient propagation and joint optimization, we adopt the attentional selection mechanism of the multi-channel f eatures, which is originally proposed in end-to-end unmixing, fixed-beamforming and extraction (E2E-UFE) structure. Furthermore, the novel deep complex convolutional recurrent network (DCCRN) is used as the structure of the speech unmixing and the neural network based weighted prediction error (WPE) is cascaded beforehand for speech dereverberation. We also introduce the staged SNR strategy and symphonic loss for the training of the network to further improve the final performance. Experiments show that in non-dereverberated case, the proposed DESNet outperforms DCCRN and most state-of-the-art structures in speech enhancement and separation, while in dereverberated scenario, DESNet also shows improvements over the cascaded WPE-DCCRN networks.
Multi-channel speech enhancement aims to extract clean speech from a noisy mixture using signals captured from multiple microphones. Recently proposed methods tackle this problem by incorporating deep neural network models with spatial filtering tech niques such as the minimum variance distortionless response (MVDR) beamformer. In this paper, we introduce a different research direction by viewing each audio channel as a node lying in a non-Euclidean space and, specifically, a graph. This formulation allows us to apply graph neural networks (GNN) to find spatial correlations among the different channels (nodes). We utilize graph convolution networks (GCN) by incorporating them in the embedding space of a U-Net architecture. We use LibriSpeech dataset and simulate room acoustics data to extensively experiment with our approach using different array types, and number of microphones. Results indicate the superiority of our approach when compared to prior state-of-the-art method.
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.
In this paper, we propose a type of neural network with feedback learning in the time domain called FTNet for monaural speech enhancement, where the proposed network consists of three principal components. The first part is called stage recurrent neu ral network, which is introduced to effectively aggregate the deep feature dependencies across different stages with a memory mechanism and also remove the interference stage by stage. The second part is the convolutional auto-encoder. The third part consists of a series of concatenated gated linear units, which are capable of facilitating the information flow and gradually increasing the receptive fields. Feedback learning is adopted to improve the parameter efficiency and therefore, the number of trainable parameters is effectively reduced without sacrificing its performance. Numerous experiments are conducted on TIMIT corpus and experimental results demonstrate that the proposed network can achieve consistently better performance in terms of both PESQ and STOI scores than two state-of-the-art time domain-based baselines in different conditions.
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.
