Recently, speaker embeddings extracted with deep neural networks became the state-of-the-art method for speaker verification. In this paper we aim to facilitate its implementation on a more generic toolkit than Kaldi, which we anticipate to…

Spoken language understanding is typically based on pipeline architectures including speech recognition and natural language understanding steps. These components are optimized independently to allow usage of available data, but the overall…

Speech signals are subjected to more acoustic interference and emotional factors than other signals. Noisy emotion-riddled speech data is a challenge for real-time speech processing applications. It is essential to find an effective way to…

While deep learning models have demonstrated robust performance in speaker recognition tasks, they primarily rely on low-level audio features learned empirically from spectrograms or raw waveforms. However, prior work has indicated that…

We propose a novel deep neural network architecture for speech recognition that explicitly employs knowledge of the background environmental noise within a deep neural network acoustic model. A deep neural network is used to predict the…

Deep learning approaches have recently achieved impressive performance on both audio source separation and sound classification. Most audio source separation approaches focus only on separating sources belonging to a restricted domain of…

Domain mismatch problem caused by speaker-unrelated feature has been a major topic in speaker recognition. In this paper, we propose an explicit disentanglement framework to unravel speaker-relevant features from speaker-unrelated features…

Speaker recognition systems are widely used in various applications to identify a person by their voice; however, the high degree of variability in speech signals makes this a challenging task. Dealing with emotional variations is very…

Speaker embedding extractors are typically trained using a classification loss over the training speakers. During the last few years, the standard softmax/cross-entropy loss has been replaced by the margin-based losses, yielding significant…

Effective representation of data is crucial in various machine learning tasks, as it captures the underlying structure and context of the data. Embeddings have emerged as a powerful technique for data representation, but evaluating their…

Obtaining high-quality speaker embeddings in multi-speaker conditions is crucial for many applications. A recently proposed guided speaker embedding framework, which utilizes speech activities of target and non-target speakers as clues,…

Recent studies have been revisiting whole words as the basic modelling unit in speech recognition and query applications, instead of phonetic units. Such whole-word segmental systems rely on a function that maps a variable-length speech…

In this paper, we propose a novel deep neural network architecture, Speech2Vec, for learning fixed-length vector representations of audio segments excised from a speech corpus, where the vectors contain semantic information pertaining to…

Most state-of-the-art Deep Learning systems for speaker verification are based on speaker embedding extractors. These architectures are commonly composed of a feature extractor front-end together with a pooling layer to encode…

This paper addresses the problem of single-channel speech separation, where the number of speakers is unknown, and each speaker may speak multiple utterances. We propose a speech separation model that simultaneously performs separation,…

Semantic sentence embedding models encode natural language sentences into vectors, such that closeness in embedding space indicates closeness in the semantics between the sentences. Bilingual data offers a useful signal for learning such…

Speakers tend to engage in adaptive behavior, known as entrainment, when they become similar to their interlocutor in various aspects of speaking. We present an unsupervised deep learning framework that derives meaningful representation…

With the advent of modern AI architectures, a shift has happened towards end-to-end architectures. This pivot has led to neural architectures being trained without domain-specific biases/knowledge, optimized according to the task. We in…

In this paper, we analyze the behavior and performance of speaker embeddings and the back-end scoring model under domain and language mismatch. We present our findings regarding ResNet-based speaker embedding architectures and show that…

In forensic voice comparison the speaker embedding has become widely popular in the last 10 years. Most of the pretrained speaker embeddings are trained on English corpora, because it is easily accessible. Thus, language dependency can be…
