We propose a streaming diarization method based on an end-to-end neural diarization (EEND) model, which handles flexible numbers of speakers and overlapping speech. In our previous study, the speaker-tracing buffer (STB) mechanism was…

Speaker diarization is well studied for constrained audios but little explored for challenging in-the-wild videos, which have more speakers, shorter utterances, and inconsistent on-screen speakers. We address this gap by proposing an…
