Verifying the identity of a speaker is crucial in modern human-machine interfaces, e.g., to ensure privacy protection or to enable biometric authentication. Classical speaker verification (SV) approaches estimate a fixed-dimensional…

In this paper we describe the recent advancements made in the IBM i-vector speaker recognition system for conversational speech. In particular, we identify key techniques that contribute to significant improvements in performance of our…

We propose SpeakerNet - a new neural architecture for speaker recognition and speaker verification tasks. It is composed of residual blocks with 1D depth-wise separable convolutions, batch-normalization, and ReLU layers. This architecture…

The accuracy of automated speaker recognition is negatively impacted by change in emotions in a person's speech. In this paper, we hypothesize that speaker identity is composed of various vocal style factors that may be learned from…

Speaker Verification (SV) systems involve mainly two individual stages: feature extraction and classification. In this paper, we explore these two modules with the aim of improving the performance of a speaker verification system under…

Speaker embeddings represent a means to extract representative vectorial representations from a speech signal such that the representation pertains to the speaker identity alone. The embeddings are commonly used to classify and discriminate…

Speaker recognition is a biometric modality that utilizes the speaker's speech segments to recognize the identity, determining whether the test speaker belongs to one of the enrolled speakers. In order to improve the robustness of the…

Voice disorders affect a large portion of the population, especially heavy voice users such as teachers or call-center workers. Most voice disorders can be treated effectively with behavioral voice therapy, which teaches patients to replace…

The objective of this work is to train noise-robust speaker embeddings adapted for speaker diarisation. Speaker embeddings play a crucial role in the performance of diarisation systems, but they often capture spurious information such as…

Recent advances in deep learning have facilitated the design of speaker verification systems that directly input raw waveforms. For example, RawNet extracts speaker embeddings from raw waveforms, which simplifies the process pipeline and…

In recent years, the impact of self-supervised speech Transformers has extended to speaker-related applications. However, little research has explored how these models encode speaker information. In this work, we address this gap by…

This work presents a framework based on feature disentanglement to learn speaker embeddings that are robust to environmental variations. Our framework utilises an auto-encoder as a disentangler, dividing the input speaker embedding into…

Speaker identification typically involves three stages. First, a front-end speaker embedding model is trained to embed utterance and speaker profiles. Second, a scoring function is applied between a runtime utterance and each speaker…
