Developing robust speaker verification (SV) systems without speaker labels has been a longstanding challenge. Earlier research has highlighted a considerable performance gap between self-supervised and fully supervised approaches. In this…

Most state-of-the-art Deep Learning (DL) approaches for speaker recognition work on a short utterance level. Given the speech signal, these algorithms extract a sequence of speaker embeddings from short segments and those are averaged to…

The task of estimating the maximum number of concurrent speakers from single channel mixtures is important for various audio-based applications, such as blind source separation, speaker diarisation, audio surveillance or auditory scene…
