Automated speaker recognition uses data processing to identify speakers by their voice. Today, automated speaker recognition is deployed on billions of smart devices and in services such as call centres. Despite their wide-scale deployment…
Speaker verification is a task of confirming an individual's identity through the analysis of their voice. Whispered speech differs from phonated speech in acoustic characteristics, which degrades the performance of speaker verification…
Current state-of-the-art speech recognition models are trained to map acoustic signals into sub-lexical units. While these models demonstrate superior performance, they remain vulnerable to out-of-distribution conditions such as background…
We address the problem of inferring a speaker's level of certainty based on prosodic information in the speech signal, which has application in speech-based dialogue systems. We show that using phrase-level prosodic features centered around…
While deep learning models have demonstrated robust performance in speaker recognition tasks, they primarily rely on low-level audio features learned empirically from spectrograms or raw waveforms. However, prior work has indicated that…
Despite rapid progress in the recent past, current speech recognition systems still require labeled training data which limits this technology to a small fraction of the languages spoken around the globe. This paper describes wav2vec-U,…
Speaker recognition is a well known and studied task in the speech processing domain. It has many applications, either for security or speaker adaptation of personal devices. In this paper, we present a new paradigm for automatic speaker…
While speech recognition has seen a surge in interest and research over the last decade, most machine learning models for speech recognition either require large training datasets or lots of storage and memory. Combined with the prominence…
Speaker identification using voice recordings leverages unique acoustic features, but this approach fails when only textual data is available. Few approaches have attempted to tackle the problem of identifying speakers solely from text, and…
