In speaker recognition, where speech segments are mapped to embeddings on the unit hypersphere, two scoring back-ends are commonly used, namely cosine scoring and PLDA. We have recently proposed PSDA, an analog to PLDA that uses Von…

State-of-art speaker verification (SV) systems use a back-end model to score the similarity of speaker embeddings extracted from a neural network model. The commonly used back-end models are the cosine scoring and the probabilistic linear…

This paper focuses on multi-enrollment speaker recognition which naturally occurs in the task of online speaker clustering, and studies the properties of different scoring back-ends in this scenario. First, we show that popular cosine…

Probabilistic Linear Discriminant Analysis (PLDA) was the dominant and necessary back-end for early speaker recognition approaches, like i-vector and x-vector. However, with the development of neural networks and margin-based loss…

The emergence of large-margin softmax cross-entropy losses in training deep speaker embedding neural networks has triggered a gradual shift from parametric back-ends to a simpler cosine similarity measure for speaker verification. Popular…

Probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) is commonly used in speaker verification systems to score the similarity of speaker embeddings. Recent studies improved the performance of PLDA in domain-matched conditions by diagonalizing…

Probabilistic Linear Discriminant Analysis (PLDA) has become state-of-the-art method for modeling $i$-vector space in speaker recognition task. However the performance degradation is observed if enrollment data size differs from one speaker…

Standard probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) for speaker recognition assumes that the sample's features (usually, i-vectors) are given by a sum of three terms: a term that depends on the speaker identity, a term that models…

The state-of-art approach to speaker verification involves the extraction of discriminative embeddings like x-vectors followed by a generative model back-end using a probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA). In this paper, we…

Probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) or cosine similarity have been widely used in traditional speaker verification systems as back-end techniques to measure pairwise similarities. To make better use of multiple enrollment…

Speech utterances recorded under differing conditions exhibit varying degrees of confidence in their embedding estimates, i.e., uncertainty, even if they are extracted using the same neural network. This paper aims to incorporate the…

Mismatch between enrollment and test conditions causes serious performance degradation on speaker recognition systems. This paper presents a statistics decomposition (SD) approach to solve this problem. This approach decomposes the PLDA…

Probabilistic Linear Discriminant Analysis (PLDA) is a popular tool in open-set classification/verification tasks. However, the Gaussian assumption underlying PLDA prevents it from being applied to situations where the data is clearly…

Probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) is a popular normalization approach for the i-vector model, and has delivered state-of-the-art performance in speaker recognition. A potential problem of the PLDA model, however, is that it…

In this paper, we address the problem of speaker verification in conditions unseen or unknown during development. A standard method for speaker verification consists of extracting speaker embeddings with a deep neural network and processing…

Probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) has broad application in open-set verification tasks, such as speaker verification. A key concern for PLDA is that the model is too simple (linear Gaussian) to deal with complicated data;…

Deep speaker embedding has demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in speaker recognition tasks. However, one potential issue with this approach is that the speaker vectors derived from deep embedding models tend to be non-Gaussian for…

Automated speaker identification (SID) is a crucial step for the personalization of a wide range of speech-enabled services. Typical SID systems use a symmetric enrollment-verification framework with a single model to derive embeddings both…

Acoustic models using probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) capture the correlations within feature vectors using subspaces which do not vastly expand the model. This allows high dimensional and correlated feature spaces to be…
