State-of-the-art speaker recognition systems comprise an x-vector (or i-vector) speaker embedding front-end followed by a probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) backend. The effectiveness of these components relies on the…

This paper proposes a generalized framework for domain adaptation of Probabilistic Linear Discriminant Analysis (PLDA) in speaker recognition. It not only includes several existing supervised and unsupervised domain adaptation methods but…

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…

State-of-the-art speaker recognition relays on models that need a large amount of training data. This models are successful in tasks like NIST SRE because there is sufficient data available. However, in real applications, we usually do not…

The standard state-of-the-art backend for text-independent speaker recognizers that use i-vectors or x-vectors, is Gaussian PLDA (G-PLDA), assisted by a Gaussianization step involving length normalization. G-PLDA can be trained with both…

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…

Adapting speaker recognition systems to new environments is a widely-used technique to improve a well-performing model learned from large-scale data towards a task-specific small-scale data scenarios. However, previous studies focus on…

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…

Domain adaptation helps transfer the knowledge gained from a labeled source domain to an unlabeled target domain. During the past few years, different domain adaptation techniques have been published. One common flaw of these approaches is…

Machine learning models often struggle to generalize across domains with varying data distributions, such as differing noise levels, leading to degraded performance. Traditional strategies like personalized training, which trains separate…

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…

Dense retrieval approaches can overcome the lexical gap and lead to significantly improved search results. However, they require large amounts of training data which is not available for most domains. As shown in previous work (Thakur et…

PLDA is a popular normalization approach for the i-vector model, and it has delivered state-of-the-art performance in speaker verification. However, PLDA training requires a large amount of labeled development data, which is highly…

Recent advances in NLP are brought by a range of large-scale pretrained language models (PLMs). These PLMs have brought significant performance gains for a range of NLP tasks, circumventing the need to customize complex designs for specific…

This article presents a novel approach for learning domain-invariant speaker embeddings using Generative Adversarial Networks. The main idea is to confuse a domain discriminator so that is can't tell if embeddings are from the source or…

Domain adaptation (DA) or domain generalization (DG) for face presentation attack detection (PAD) has attracted attention recently with its robustness against unseen attack scenarios. Existing DA/DG-based PAD methods, however, have not yet…

Domain adaptation (DA) aims to transfer the knowledge learned from a source domain to an unlabeled target domain. Some recent works tackle source-free domain adaptation (SFDA) where only a source pre-trained model is available for…

Speaker verification system trained on one domain usually suffers performance degradation when applied to another domain. To address this challenge, researchers commonly use feature distribution matching-based methods in unsupervised domain…

While deep learning models have made significant advances in supervised classification problems, the application of these models for out-of-set verification tasks like speaker recognition has been limited to deriving feature embeddings. The…

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…
