This is a description of our effort in VOiCES 2019 Speaker Recognition challenge. All systems in the fixed condition are based on the x-vector paradigm with different features and DNN topologies. The single best system reaches 1.2% EER and…

This technical report describes our submission to the 2021 SLT Children Speech Recognition Challenge (CSRC) Track 1. Our approach combines the use of a joint CTC-attention end-to-end (E2E) speech recognition framework, transfer learning,…

This paper investigates the utilization of an end-to-end diarization model as post-processing of conventional clustering-based diarization. Clustering-based diarization methods partition frames into clusters of the number of speakers; thus,…

This work presents a novel approach to leverage lexical information for speaker diarization. We introduce a speaker diarization system that can directly integrate lexical as well as acoustic information into a speaker clustering process.…

In this report, we describe our submitted system for track 2 of the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge 2022 (VoxSRC-22). We fuse a variety of good-performing models ranging from supervised models to self-supervised learning(SSL)…

In many real-world scenarios, such as meetings, multiple speakers are present with an unknown number of participants, and their utterances often overlap. We address these multi-speaker challenges by a novel attention-based encoder-decoder…

This paper investigates the applications of various multilingual approaches developed in conventional hidden Markov model (HMM) systems to sequence-to-sequence (seq2seq) automatic speech recognition (ASR). On a set composed of Babel data,…

Overlapping speech diarization is always treated as a multi-label classification problem. In this paper, we reformulate this task as a single-label prediction problem by encoding the multi-speaker labels with power set. Specifically, we…

Combining end-to-end neural speaker diarization (EEND) with vector clustering (VC), known as EEND-VC, has gained interest for leveraging the strengths of both methods. EEND-VC estimates activities and speaker embeddings for all speakers…

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…

This paper describes our work in participation of the IWSLT-2021 offline speech translation task. Our system was built in a cascade form, including a speaker diarization module, an Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) module and a Machine…

This paper is the system description of the DKU-MSXF System for the track1, track2 and track3 of the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge 2023 (VoxSRC-23). For Track 1, we utilize a network structure based on ResNet for training. By…

We present our system for semantic frame induction that showed the best performance in Subtask B.1 and finished as the runner-up in Subtask A of the SemEval 2019 Task 2 on unsupervised semantic frame induction (QasemiZadeh et al., 2019).…

We describe the system used by our team for the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge 2022 (VoxSRC 2022) in the speaker diarization track. Our solution was designed around a new combination of voice activity detection algorithms that uses…

Since the first speech recognition systems were built more than 30 years ago, improvement in voice technology has enabled applications such as smart assistants and automated customer support. However, conversation intelligence of the future…

Speaker diarization has been mainly developed based on the clustering of speaker embeddings. However, the clustering-based approach has two major problems; i.e., (i) it is not optimized to minimize diarization errors directly, and (ii) it…

Self-supervised approaches for speech representation learning are challenged by three unique problems: (1) there are multiple sound units in each input utterance, (2) there is no lexicon of input sound units during the pre-training phase,…

This report describes the systems submitted to the first and second tracks of the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge (VoxSRC) 2020, which ranked second in both tracks. Three key points of the system pipeline are explored: (1)…

The aim of this paper is to investigate the benefit of combining both language and acoustic modelling for speaker diarization. Although conventional systems only use acoustic features, in some scenarios linguistic data contain high…

We present the third edition of the VoiceMOS Challenge, a scientific initiative designed to advance research into automatic prediction of human speech ratings. There were three tracks. The first track was on predicting the quality of…
