The performances of the automatic speaker verification (ASV) systems degrade due to the reduction in the amount of speech used for enrollment and verification. Combining multiple systems based on different features and classifiers…
In this paper, a novel architecture for speaker recognition is proposed by cascading speech enhancement and speaker processing. Its aim is to improve speaker recognition performance when speech signals are corrupted by noise. Instead of…
Speaker identification is the process of determining which registered speaker provides a given utterance. Speaker identification required to make a claim on the identity of speaker from the Ns trained speaker in its user database. In this…
Speaker recognition deals with recognizing speakers by their speech. Most speaker recognition systems are built upon two stages, the first stage extracts low dimensional correlation embeddings from speech, and the second performs the…
Speaker Verification (SV) systems involve mainly two individual stages: feature extraction and classification. In this paper, we explore these two modules with the aim of improving the performance of a speaker verification system under…
End-to-end speaker diarization approaches have shown exceptional performance over the traditional modular approaches. To further improve the performance of the end-to-end speaker diarization for real speech recordings, recently works have…

The state-of-the-art speaker diarization systems use agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) which performs the clustering of previously learned neural embeddings. While the clustering approach attempts to identify speaker clusters, the…
Recently, the speaker clustering model based on aggregation hierarchy cluster (AHC) is a common method to solve two main problems: no preset category number clustering and fix category number clustering. In general, model takes features…
State-of-the-art speaker verification systems are inherently dependent on some kind of human supervision as they are trained on massive amounts of labeled data. However, manually annotating utterances is slow, expensive and not scalable to…
