SpeakerRPL v2: Robust Open-set Speaker Identification through Enhanced Few-shot Foundation Tuning and Model Fusion

Audio and Speech Processing 2026-04-16 v1

Abstract

This paper proposes an improved approach for open-set speaker identification based on pretrained speaker foundation models. Building upon the previous Speaker Reciprocal Points Learning framework (V1), we first introduce an enhanced open-set learning objective by integrating reciprocal points learning with logit normalization (LogitNorm) and incorporating adaptive anchor learning to better constrain target speaker representations and improve robustness. Second, we propose a model fusion strategy to stabilize and enhance the few-shot tuning process, effectively reducing result randomness and improving generalization. Furthermore, we introduce a model selection method to ensure optimal performance in model fusion. Experimental evaluations on the VoxCeleb, ESD and 3D-Speaker datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method under diverse conditions. On a newly proposed Vox1-O-like test set, our method reduces the EER from 1.28% to 0.09%, achieving a relative reduction of approximately 93%.
