Training of Working Memory Impacts Neural Processing of Vocal Pitch Regulation [PDF]
Working memory training can improve the performance of tasks that were not trained. Whether auditory-motor integration for voice control can benefit from working memory training, however, remains unclear.

Post-training load-related changes of auditory working memory: An EEG study [PDF]
Working memory (WM) refers to the temporary retention and manipulation of information, and its capacity is highly susceptible to training. Yet, the neural mechanisms that allow for increased performance under demanding conditions are not fully understood.

Raw Multi-Channel Audio Source Separation using Multi-Resolution Convolutional Auto-Encoders [PDF]
Supervised multi-channel audio source separation requires extracting useful spectral, temporal, and spatial features from the mixed signals. The success of many existing systems is therefore largely dependent on the choice of features used for training ...

Adversarially Trained Autoencoders for Parallel-Data-Free Voice Conversion
We present a method for converting the voices between a set of speakers. Our method is based on training multiple autoencoder paths, where there is a single speaker-independent encoder and multiple speaker-dependent decoders. The autoencoders are trained

Singing voice separation based on deep learning relies on the usage of time-frequency masking. In many cases the masking process is not a learnable function or is not encapsulated into the deep learning optimization.

A novel interference rejection scheme for DS-CDMA using adaptive noise cancellation [PDF]
This paper proposes a novel solution to the interference cancellation problem in mobile direct sequence code division multiple access (DS-CDMA) systems. Conventional adaptive interference cancellation techniques rely on a training sequence to update the ...
