TEA-PSE 3.0: Tencent-Ethereal-Audio-Lab Personalized Speech Enhancement System For ICASSP 2023 DNS Challenge

Abstract

This paper introduces the Unbeatable Team's submission to the ICASSP 2023 Deep Noise Suppression (DNS) Challenge. We expand our previous work, TEA-PSE, to its upgraded version -- TEA-PSE 3.0. Specifically, TEA-PSE 3.0 incorporates a residual LSTM after squeezed temporal convolution network (S-TCN) to enhance sequence modeling capabilities. Additionally, the local-global representation (LGR) structure is introduced to boost speaker information extraction, and multi-STFT resolution loss is used to effectively capture the time-frequency characteristics of the speech signals. Moreover, retraining methods are employed based on the freeze training strategy to fine-tune the system. According to the official results, TEA-PSE 3.0 ranks 1st in both ICASSP 2023 DNS-Challenge track 1 and track 2.
