text: "We propose a spatio-spectral, combined model-based and data-driven\r\ndiarization
pipeline consisting of TDOA-based segmentation followed by\r\nembedding-based
clustering. The proposed system requires neither access to\r\nmulti-channel training
data nor prior knowledge about the number or placement\r\nof microphones. It works
for both a compact microphone array and distributed\r\nmicrophones, with minor
adjustments. Due to its superior handling of\r\noverlapping speech during segmentation,
the proposed pipeline significantly\r\noutperforms the single-channel pyannote
approach, both in a scenario with a\r\ncompact microphone array and in a setup
with distributed microphones.\r\nAdditionally, we show that, unlike fully spatial
diarization pipelines, the\r\nproposed system can correctly track speakers when
they change positions."

text: "We propose a diarization system, that estimates “who spoke when” based on
spatial information, to be used as a front-end of a meeting transcription system
running on the signals gathered from an acoustic sensor network (ASN). Although
the\r\nspatial distribution of the microphones is advantageous, exploiting the
spatial diversity for diarization and signal enhancement is challenging, because
the microphones’ positions are typically unknown, and the recorded signals are
initially unsynchronized in general. Here, we approach these issues by first blindly
synchronizing the signals and then estimating time differences of arrival (TDOAs).
The TDOA information is exploited to estimate the speakers’ activity, even in
the presence of multiple speakers being simultaneously active. This speaker activity
information serves as a guide for a spatial mixture model, on which basis the
individual speaker’s signals are extracted via beamforming. Finally, the extracted
signals are forwarded to a speech recognizer. Additionally, a novel initialization
scheme for spatial mixture models based on the TDOA estimates is proposed. Experiments
conducted on real recordings from the LibriWASN data set have shown that our proposed
system is advantageous compared to a system using a spatial mixture model, which
does not make use\r\nof external diarization information."

text: Due to the ad hoc nature of wireless acoustic sensor networks, the position
of the sensor nodes is typically unknown. This contribution proposes a technique
to estimate the position and orientation of the sensor nodes from the recorded
speech signals. The method assumes that a node comprises a microphone array with
synchronously sampled microphones rather than a single microphone, but does not
require the sampling clocks of the nodes to be synchronized. From the observed
audio signals, the distances between the acoustic sources and arrays, as well
as the directions of arrival, are estimated. They serve as input to a non-linear
least squares problem, from which both the sensor nodes’ positions and orientations,
as well as the source positions, are alternatingly estimated in an iterative process.
Given one set of unknowns, i.e., either the source positions or the sensor nodes’
geometry, the other set of unknowns can be computed in closed-form. The proposed
approach is computationally efficient and the first one, which employs both distance
and directional information for geometry calibration in a common cost function.
Since both distance and direction of arrival measurements suffer from outliers,
e.g., caused by strong reflections of the sound waves on the surfaces of the room,
we introduce measures to deemphasize or remove unreliable measurements. Additionally,
we discuss modifications of our previously proposed deep neural network-based
acoustic distance estimator, to account not only for omnidirectional sources but
also for directional sources. Simulation results show good positioning accuracy
and compare very favorably with alternative approaches from the literature.

text: 'We present an approach to deep neural network based (DNN-based) distance
estimation in reverberant rooms for supporting geometry calibration tasks in wireless
acoustic sensor networks. Signal diffuseness information from acoustic signals
is aggregated via the coherent-to-diffuse power ratio to obtain a distance-related
feature, which is mapped to a source-to-microphone distance estimate by means
of a DNN. This information is then combined with direction-of-arrival estimates
from compact microphone arrays to infer the geometry of the sensor network. Unlike
many other approaches to geometry calibration, the proposed scheme does only require
that the sampling clocks of the sensor nodes are roughly synchronized. In simulations
we show that the proposed DNN-based distance estimator generalizes to unseen acoustic
environments and that precise estimates of the sensor node positions are obtained. '

text: This paper presents an approach to voice conversion, whichdoes neither
require parallel data nor speaker or phone labels fortraining. It can convert
between speakers which are not in thetraining set by employing the previously
proposed concept of afactorized hierarchical variational autoencoder. Here, linguisticand
speaker induced variations are separated upon the notionthat content induced variations
change at a much shorter timescale, i.e., at the segment level, than speaker induced
variations,which vary at the longer utterance level. In this contribution wepropose
to employ convolutional instead of recurrent networklayers in the encoder and decoder blocks, which is shown toachieve
better phone recognition accuracy on the latent segmentvariables at frame-level
due to their better temporal resolution.For voice conversion the mean of the utterance
variables is re-placed with the respective estimated mean of the target speaker.The
resulting log-mel spectra of the decoder output are used aslocal conditions of
a WaveNet which is utilized for synthesis ofthe speech waveforms. Experiments
show both good disentan-glement properties of the latent space variables, and
good voiceconversion performance.
