• Abstract: Cocktail party problem is the scenario where it is difficult to separate or distinguish individual speaker from a mixed speech from several speakers. There have been several researches going on in this field but the size and complexity of the model is being traded off with the accuracy and robustness of speech separation. "Monaural multi-speaker speech separation" presents a speech-separation model based on the Transformer architecture and its efficient forms. The model has been trained with the LibriMix dataset containing diverse speakers' utterances. The model separates 2 distinct speaker sources from a mixed audio input. The developed model approaches the reduction in computational complexity of the speech separation model, with minimum tradeoff with the performance of prevalent speech separation model and it has shown significant movement towards that goal. This project foresees, a rise in contribution towards the ongoing research in the field of speech separation with computational efficiency at its core.

  We introduce a novel model framework TransVIP that leverages diverse datasets in a cascade fashion. We propose two separated encoders to preserve the speaker's voice characteristics and isochrony from the source speech during the translation process. Our experiments on the French-English language pair demonstrate that our model outperforms the current state-of-the-art speech-to-speech translation model.

Our proposed model is shown to outperform the state-of-the-art audio-only model and three audio-visual models.

  A multi-turn dialogue is composed of multiple utterances from two or more different speaker roles. In the existing retrieval-based multi-turn dialogue modeling, the pre-trained language models (PrLMs) as encoder represent the dialogues coarsely. We propose a novel model to fill such a gap by modeling the effective utterance-aware and speaker-aware representations entailed in a dialogue history.
