Speaker embedding extractors (EEs), which map input audio to a speaker discriminant latent space, are of paramount importance in speaker diarisation. However, there are several challenges when adopting EEs for diarisation, from which we…
Majority of speech signals across different scenarios are never available with well-defined audio segments containing only a single speaker. A typical conversation between two speakers consists of segments where their voices overlap,…
Self-supervised models such as WavLM have demonstrated strong performance for neural speaker diarization. However, these models are typically pre-trained on single-channel recordings, limiting their effectiveness in multi-channel scenarios.…
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…
