Abstract: This report presents the development of Tencent AI Lab’s personalized speech enhancement system for the 2023 ICASSP Signal Processing Grand Challenge – deep noise suppression (DNS) challenge1, which includes the use of a modified band-split recurrent neural network (BSRNN) and a multi-resolution spectrogram discriminator to improve perceptual quality metrics. The proposed system outperforms the baseline system by 0.047 and 0.036 final scores in the headset track and speaker phone track, respectively, and ranks among the top-32 in both tracks.
