Abstract

Self-supervised pre-trained speech models were shown effective for various downstream speech processing tasks. Since they are mainly pre-trained to map input speech to pseudo-labels, the resulting representations are only effective for the type of pre-train data used, either clean or mixture speech. With the idea of selective auditory attention, we propose a novel pre-training solution called Selective-HuBERT, or SHuBERT, which learns the selective extraction of target speech representations from either clean or mixture speech. Specifically, SHuBERT is trained to predict pseudo labels of a target speaker, conditioned on an enrolled speech from the target speaker. By doing so, SHuBERT is expected to selectively attend to the target speaker in a complex acoustic environment, thus benefiting various downstream tasks. We further introduce a dual-path training strategy and use the cross-correlation constraint between the two branches to encourage the model to generate noise-invariant repres
