In speaker verification (SV), the acoustic mismatch between children's and adults' speech leads to suboptimal performance when adult-trained SV systems are applied to children's speaker verification (C-SV). While domain adaptation…
Face aging techniques have used generative adversarial networks (GANs) and style transfer learning to transform one's appearance to look younger/older. Identity is maintained by conditioning these generative networks on a learned vector…
Automatic speaker verification has achieved remarkable progress in recent years. However, there is little research on cross-age speaker verification (CASV) due to insufficient relevant data. In this paper, we mine cross-age test sets based…
Automated deception detection is crucial for assisting humans in accurately assessing truthfulness and identifying deceptive behavior. Conventional contact-based techniques, like polygraph devices, rely on physiological signals to determine…
Visual kinship verification entails confirming whether or not two individuals in a given pair of images or videos share a hypothesized kin relation. As a generalized face verification task, visual kinship verification is particularly…
Visual kinship recognition aims to identify blood relatives from facial images. Its practical application-- like in law-enforcement, video surveillance, automatic family album management, and more-- has motivated many researchers to put…
With the rapid development of deepfake technology, simply making a binary judgment of true or false on audio is no longer sufficient to meet practical needs. Accurately determining the specific deepfake method has become crucial. This paper…
In this paper, we study the impact of the ageing on modern deep speaker embedding based automatic speaker verification (ASV) systems. We have selected two different datasets to examine ageing on the state-of-the-art ECAPA-TDNN system. The…
Arabic dialect identification (ADI) systems are essential for large-scale data collection pipelines that enable the development of inclusive speech technologies for Arabic language varieties. However, the reliability of current ADI systems…
The age gap in kinship verification addresses the time difference between the photos of the parent and the child. Moreover, their same-age photos are often unavailable, and face aging models are racially biased, which impacts the likeness…
Voice Activity Detection (VAD) aims at detecting speech segments on an audio signal, which is a necessary first step for many today's speech based applications. Current state-of-the-art methods focus on training a neural network exploiting…
Recently, researchers have utilized neural network-based speaker embedding techniques in speaker-recognition tasks to identify speakers accurately. However, speaker-discriminative embeddings do not always represent speech features such as…
Voice disguise, purposeful modification of one's speaker identity with the aim of avoiding being identified as oneself, is a low-effort way to fool speaker recognition, whether performed by a human or an automatic speaker verification (ASV)…

There has been an increasing research interest in cross-age speaker verification~(CASV). However, existing speaker verification systems perform poorly in CASV due to the great individual differences in voice caused by aging. In this paper,…
Automatic Speaker Verification (ASV) technology has become commonplace in virtual assistants. However, its performance suffers when there is a mismatch between the train and test domains. Mixed bandwidth training, i.e., pooling training…
This article presents a novel approach for learning domain-invariant speaker embeddings using Generative Adversarial Networks. The main idea is to confuse a domain discriminator so that is can't tell if embeddings are from the source or…
Detecting the presence of animal vocalisations in nature is essential to study animal populations and their behaviors. A recent development in the field is the introduction of the task known as few-shot bioacoustic sound event detection,…
The performance of child speech recognition is generally less satisfactory compared to adult speech due to limited amount of training data. Significant performance degradation is expected when applying an automatic speech recognition (ASR)…
