Besides its linguistic content, our speech is rich in biometric information that can be inferred by classifiers. Learning privacy-preserving representations for speech signals enables downstream tasks without sharing unnecessary, private…
Speech separation aims to separate individual voice from an audio mixture of multiple simultaneous talkers. Although audio-only approaches achieve satisfactory performance, they build on a strategy to handle the predefined conditions,…
In this paper, we propose a novel strategy for text-independent speaker identification system: Multi-Label Training (MLT). Instead of the commonly used one-to-one correspondence between the speech and the speaker label, we divide all the…
