Recent progress on end-to-end neural diarization (EEND) has enabled overlap-aware speaker diarization with a single neural network. This paper proposes to enhance EEND by using multi-channel signals from distributed microphones. We replace…
We address the problem of effectively handling overlapping speech in a diarization system. First, we detail a neural Long Short-Term Memory-based architecture for overlap detection. Secondly, detected overlap regions are exploited in…
Speaker diarisation systems often cluster audio segments using speaker embeddings such as i-vectors and d-vectors. Since different types of embeddings are often complementary, this paper proposes a generic framework to improve performance…
Diarization partitions an audio stream into segments based on the voices of the speakers. Real-time diarization systems that include an enrollment step should limit enrollment training samples to reduce user interaction time. Although…
Computational modeling of naturalistic conversations in clinical applications has seen growing interest in the past decade. An important use-case involves child-adult interactions within the autism diagnosis and intervention domain. In this…
Conversational agents participating in multi-party interactions face significant challenges in dialogue state tracking, since the identity of the speaker adds significant contextual meaning. It is common to utilise diarisation models to…
Speech separation with several speakers is a challenging task because of the non-stationarity of the speech and the strong signal similarity between interferent sources. Current state-of-the-art solutions can separate well the different…

This paper describes a system that generates speaker-annotated transcripts of meetings by using a microphone array and a 360-degree camera. The hallmark of the system is its ability to handle overlapped speech, which has been an unsolved…
Speaker-role diarization (RD), such as doctor vs. patient or lawyer vs. client, is practically often more useful than conventional speaker diarization (SD), which assigns only generic labels (speaker-1, speaker-2). The state-of-the-art…
We propose an approach for simultaneous diarization and separation of meeting data. It consists of a complex Angular Central Gaussian Mixture Model (cACGMM) for speech source separation, and a von-Mises-Fisher Mixture Model (VMFMM) for…
