SpecWav-Attack: Leveraging Spectrogram Resizing and Wav2Vec 2.0 for Attacking Anonymized Speech

Sound 2025-05-16 v1 Artificial Intelligence Audio and Speech Processing

Abstract

This paper presents SpecWav-Attack, an adversarial model for detecting speakers in anonymized speech. It leverages Wav2Vec2 for feature extraction and incorporates spectrogram resizing and incremental training for improved performance. Evaluated on librispeech-dev and librispeech-test, SpecWav-Attack outperforms conventional attacks, revealing vulnerabilities in anonymized speech systems and emphasizing the need for stronger defenses, benchmarked against the ICASSP 2025 Attacker Challenge.
