Speaker recognition models face challenges in multi-lingual settings due to the entanglement of linguistic information within speaker embeddings. The overlap between vocal traits such as accent, vocal anatomy, and a language's phonetic…
Speaker recognition deals with recognizing speakers by their speech. Most speaker recognition systems are built upon two stages, the first stage extracts low dimensional correlation embeddings from speech, and the second performs the…
Many approaches can derive information about a single speaker's identity from the speech by learning to recognize consistent characteristics of acoustic parameters. However, it is challenging to determine identity information when there are…
