In spite of the popularity of end-to-end diarization systems nowadays, modular systems comprised of voice activity detection (VAD), speaker embedding extraction plus clustering, and overlapped speech detection (OSD) plus handling still…
Over the last few years, deep learning has grown in popularity for speaker verification, identification, and diarization. Inarguably, a significant part of this success is due to the demonstrated effectiveness of their speaker…
In traditional speaker diarization systems, a well-trained speaker model is a key component to extract representations from consecutive and partially overlapping segments in a long speech session. To be more consistent with the back-end…
Speaker segmentation consists in partitioning a conversation between one or more speakers into speaker turns. Usually addressed as the late combination of three sub-tasks (voice activity detection, speaker change detection, and overlapped…
Spatial analysis of room acoustics is an ongoing research topic. Microphone arrays have been employed for spatial analyses with an important objective being the estimation of the direction-of-arrival (DOA) of direct sound and early room…
Previous works have shown that spatial location information can be complementary to speaker embeddings for a speaker diarisation task. However, the models used often assume that speakers are fairly stationary throughout a meeting. This…
In this paper, we address the problem of speaker recognition in challenging acoustic conditions using a novel method to extract robust speaker-discriminative speech representations. We adopt a recently proposed unsupervised adversarial…
In a multi-channel separation task with multiple speakers, we aim to recover all individual speech signals from the mixture. In contrast to single-channel approaches, which rely on the different spectro-temporal characteristics of the…
In this paper, we introduce an unsupervised approach for Speech Segmentation, which builds on previously researched approaches, e.g., Speaker Diarization, while being applicable to an inclusive set of acoustic-semantic distinctions, paving…
Speaker diarization systems segment a conversation recording based on the speakers' identity. Such systems can misclassify the speaker of a portion of audio due to a variety of factors, such as speech pattern variation, background noise,…
The performance of traditional linear spatial filters for speech enhancement is constrained by the physical size and number of channels of microphone arrays. For instance, for large microphone distances and high frequencies, spatial…
Mamba is a newly proposed architecture which behaves like a recurrent neural network (RNN) with attention-like capabilities. These properties are promising for speaker diarization, as attention-based models have unsuitable memory…
Using a Teacher-Student training approach we developed a speaker embedding extraction system that outputs embeddings at frame rate. Given this high temporal resolution and the fact that the student produces sensible speaker embeddings even…
We propose a streaming diarization method based on an end-to-end neural diarization (EEND) model, which handles flexible numbers of speakers and overlapping speech. In our previous study, the speaker-tracing buffer (STB) mechanism was…
Speech separation has been very successful with deep learning techniques. Substantial effort has been reported based on approaches over spectrogram, which is well known as the standard time-and-frequency cross-domain representation for…
Multi-speaker localization and tracking using microphone array recording is of importance in a wide range of applications. One of the challenges with multi-speaker tracking is to associate direction estimates with the correct speaker. Most…
The most common approach to speaker diarization is clustering of speaker embeddings. However, the clustering-based approach has a number of problems; i.e., (i) it is not optimized to minimize diarization errors directly, (ii) it cannot…
End-to-end diarization presents an attractive alternative to standard cascaded diarization systems because a single system can handle all aspects of the task at once. Many flavors of end-to-end models have been proposed but all of them…
This paper addresses the problem of multi-channel multi-speech separation based on deep learning techniques. In the short time Fourier transform domain, we propose an end-to-end narrow-band network that directly takes as input the…
Speech recognition and other natural language tasks have long benefited from voting-based algorithms as a method to aggregate outputs from several systems to achieve a higher accuracy than any of the individual systems. Diarization, the…
