Speech recognition and other natural language tasks have long benefited from voting-based algorithms as a method to aggregate outputs from several systems to achieve a higher accuracy than any of the individual systems. Diarization, the…
Recent speaker diarisation systems often convert variable length speech segments into fixed-length vector representations for speaker clustering, which are known as speaker embeddings. In this paper, the content-aware speaker embeddings…
Speaker diarisation systems nowadays use embeddings generated from speech segments in a bottleneck layer, which are needed to be discriminative for unseen speakers. It is well-known that large-margin training can improve the generalisation…

While standard speaker diarization attempts to answer the question "who spoken when", most of relevant applications in reality are more interested in determining "who spoken what". Whether it is the conventional modularized approach or the…
We introduce DIVE, an end-to-end speaker diarization algorithm. Our neural algorithm presents the diarization task as an iterative process: it repeatedly builds a representation for each speaker before predicting the voice activity of each…
