AlignAudio framework enhances speech generation in noisy conditions

Researchers have introduced AlignAudio, a novel framework designed to improve the robustness of speech-conditioned audio generation in noisy environments. The system employs a dual-alignment strategy: first, it aligns representations of clean and noisy speech to preserve semantic information, and second, it enforces generation consistency through a flow matching paradigm. Experiments on speech-to-audio and voice conversion tasks show that AlignAudio maintains performance on clean speech while significantly outperforming existing methods in noisy conditions. This dual-alignment approach is versatile, applicable to various conditioning streams and generation frameworks. AI

IMPACT Enhances the reliability of speech-to-audio and voice conversion models in real-world, noisy environments.

    AlignAudio: A Unified Dual-Alignment Framework for Noise-Robust Speech-Conditioned Generation

    arXiv:2610.14697v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speech-conditioned generation maps speech signals to target audio outputs. Prior end-to-end speech-conditioned generative models achieve high fidelity in clean acoustic conditions, but their performance degrades substantially unde…
