RaD-Net: A Repairing and Denoising Network for Speech Signal Improvement (2401.04389v1)

Abstract: This paper introduces our repairing and denoising network (RaD-Net) for the ICASSP 2024 Speech Signal Improvement (SSI) Challenge. We extend our previous framework based on a two-stage network and propose an upgraded model. Specifically, we replace the repairing network with COM-Net from TEA-PSE. In addition, multi-resolution discriminators and multi-band discriminators are adopted in the training stage. Finally, we use a three-step training strategy to optimize our model. We submit two models with different sets of parameters to meet the RTF requirement of the two tracks. According to the official results, the proposed systems rank 2nd in track 1 and 3rd in track 2.
