| Abstract |
Speech enhancement in realistic scenarios still remains many challenges, such as complex background signals and data limitations. In this paper, we present a co-attention based framework that incorporates self-supervised and curriculum learning to derive the target speech in noisy environments. Specifically, we first leverage self-supervision to pre-train the co-attention model on the task of audio-visual synchronization. The pre-trained model can focus on the lip of speakers automatically, and then the self-supervised features from the model are combined with a u-net regression network to separate the spectrograms of sound mixtures. To make the training process easier and further improve the performance, we introduce the curriculum learning scheme for the training stage of speech enhancement. Extensive experiments show that our model achieves superior performance over previous self-supervised method for speech enhancement, and demonstrate the generalizability of our approach to the transferred dataset. |
