• Title: Improving Label Assignments Learning by Dynamic Sample Dropout Combined with Layer-wise Optimization in Speech Separation
• Authors: Chenyang Gao, Yue Gu, Ivan Marsic
• Abstract summary: In supervised speech separation, permutation invariant training (PIT) is widely used to handle label ambiguity by selecting the best permutation to update the model. Previous studies showed that PIT is plagued by excessive label assignment switching in adjacent epochs, impeding the model to learn better label assignments. We propose a novel training strategy, dynamic sample dropout (DSD), which considers previous best label assignments and evaluation metrics to exclude the samples that may negatively impact the learned label assignments during training.

• Abstract: In supervised speech separation, permutation invariant training (PIT) is widely used to handle label ambiguity by selecting the best permutation to update the model. Despite its success, previous studies showed that PIT is plagued by excessive label assignment switching in adjacent epochs, impeding the model to learn better label assignments. To address this issue, we propose a novel training strategy, dynamic sample dropout (DSD), which considers previous best label assignments and evaluation metrics to exclude the samples that may negatively impact the learned label assignments during training. Additionally, we include layer-wise optimization (LO) to improve the performance by solving layer-decoupling. Our experiments showed that combining DSD and LO outperforms the baseline and solves excessive label assignment switching and layer-decoupling issues. The proposed DSD and LO approach is easy to implement, requires no extra training sets or steps, and shows generality to various speech separation tasks.

  We propose an auxiliary pseudo-label refinement network (PRN) for online refining of the pseudo labels and also localizing the pixels whose predicted labels are likely to be noisy. We evaluate our approach on benchmark datasets with three different domain shifts, and our approach consistently performs significantly better than the previous state-of-the-art methods.

  This paper introduces a permutation layer learning approach termed PermLL to dynamically calibrate the training process of a deep neural network (DNN) We provide two variants of PermLL in this paper: one applies the permutation layer to the model's prediction, while the other applies it directly to the given noisy label. We validate PermLL experimentally and show that it achieves state-of-the-art performance on both real and synthetic datasets.

  A long-lasting problem in supervised speech separation is finding the correct label for each separated speech signal.

In this work, we propose a probabilistic optimization framework to address the inefficiency of PIT in finding the best output-label assignment.
