Abstract
- Large, pre-trained representation models trained using self-supervised learning have gained popularity in various fields of machine learning because they are able to extract high-quality salient features from input data. As such, they have been frequently used as base networks for various pattern classification tasks such as speech recognition. However, not much research has been conducted on applying these types of models to the field of speech signal generation. In this paper, we investigate the feasibility of using pre-trained speech representation models for a downstream speech enhancement task. To alleviate mismatches between the input features of the pre-trained model and the target enhancement model, we adopt a novel feature normalization technique to smoothly link these modules together. Our proposed method enables significant improvements in speech quality compared to baselines when combined with various types of pre-trained speech models.<br />Comment: INTERSPEECH 2023 accepted
