Speaker diarization systems are challenged by a trade-off between the temporal resolution and the fidelity of the speaker representation. By obtaining a superior temporal resolution with an enhanced accuracy, a multi-scale approach is a way…
We present a distant automatic speech recognition (DASR) system developed for the CHiME-8 DASR track. It consists of a diarization first pipeline. For diarization, we use end-to-end diarization with vector clustering (EEND-VC) followed by…
In this paper, we address the problem of speaker recognition in challenging acoustic conditions using a novel method to extract robust speaker-discriminative speech representations. We adopt a recently proposed unsupervised adversarial…
We review current solutions and technical challenges for automatic speech recognition, keyword spotting, device arbitration, speech enhancement, and source localization in multidevice home environments to provide context for the INTERSPEECH…
This paper summarises the findings from the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge 2022 (VoxSRC-22), which was held in conjunction with INTERSPEECH 2022. The goal of this challenge was to evaluate how well state-of-the-art speaker…
We held the second installment of the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge in conjunction with Interspeech 2020. The goal of this challenge was to assess how well current speaker recognition technology is able to diarise and recognize…
Single-channel speech separation is a crucial task for enhancing speech recognition systems in multi-speaker environments. This paper investigates the robustness of state-of-the-art Neural Network models in scenarios where the pitch…
This paper describes our speaker diarization system submitted to the Multi-channel Multi-party Meeting Transcription (M2MeT) challenge, where Mandarin meeting data were recorded in multi-channel format for diarization and automatic speech…
Multi-speaker automatic speech recognition (ASR) aims to transcribe conversational speech involving multiple speakers, requiring the model to capture not only what was said, but also who said it and sometimes when it was spoken. Recent…
This paper describes the STCON system for the CHiME-8 Challenge Task 1 (DASR) aimed at distant automatic speech transcription and diarization with multiple recording devices. Our main attention was paid to carefully trained and tuned…
The evolving speech processing landscape is increasingly focused on complex scenarios like meetings or cocktail parties with multiple simultaneous speakers and far-field conditions. Existing methodologies for addressing these challenges…
Speaker diarization is a task to label an audio or video recording with the identity of the speaker at each given time stamp. In this work, we propose a novel machine learning framework to conduct real-time multi-speaker diarization and…
The Multi-target Challenge aims to assess how well current speech technology is able to determine whether or not a recorded utterance was spoken by one of a large number of blacklisted speakers. It is a form of multi-target speaker…
Speech separation has been extensively explored to tackle the cocktail party problem. However, these studies are still far from having enough generalization capabilities for real scenarios. In this work, we raise a common strategy named…
Speaker diarization(SD) is a classic task in speech processing and is crucial in multi-party scenarios such as meetings and conversations. Current mainstream speaker diarization approaches consider acoustic information only, which result in…
We consider the problem of speaker diarization, the problem of segmenting an audio recording of a meeting into temporal segments corresponding to individual speakers. The problem is rendered particularly difficult by the fact that we are…
In this paper, we introduce an unsupervised approach for Speech Segmentation, which builds on previously researched approaches, e.g., Speaker Diarization, while being applicable to an inclusive set of acoustic-semantic distinctions, paving…
Recent progress in separating the speech signals from multiple overlapping speakers using a single audio channel has brought us closer to solving the cocktail party problem. However, most studies in this area use a constrained problem…
Representing speech and audio signals in discrete units has become a compelling alternative to traditional high-dimensional feature vectors. Numerous studies have highlighted the efficacy of discrete units in various applications such as…
End-to-end speaker diarization enables accurate overlap-aware diarization by jointly estimating multiple speakers' speech activities in parallel. This approach is data-hungry, requiring a large amount of labeled conversational data, which…
