We propose three regularization-based speaker adaptation approaches to adapt the attention-based encoder-decoder (AED) model with very limited adaptation data from target speakers for end-to-end automatic speech recognition. The first…

Target-speaker voice activity detection (TS-VAD) has recently shown promising results for speaker diarization on highly overlapped speech. However, the original model requires a fixed (and known) number of speakers, which limits its…

DIHARD III was the third in a series of speaker diarization challenges intended to improve the robustness of diarization systems to variability in recording equipment, noise conditions, and conversational domain. Speaker diarization was…

Deep clustering is a recently introduced deep learning architecture that uses discriminatively trained embeddings as the basis for clustering. It was recently applied to spectrogram segmentation, resulting in impressive results on…

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…

Large Audio-Language Models (LALMs) have demonstrated remarkable performance in end-to-end speaker diarization and recognition. However, their speaker discriminability remains limited due to the scarcity of large-scale conversational data…

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,…

Target-speaker voice activity detection is currently a promising approach for speaker diarization in complex acoustic environments. This paper presents a novel Sequence-to-Sequence Target-Speaker Voice Activity Detection (Seq2Seq-TSVAD)…

This paper describes a method for overlap-aware speaker diarization. Given an overlap detector and a speaker embedding extractor, our method performs spectral clustering of segments informed by the output of the overlap detector. This is…

In diarization, the PLDA is typically used to model an inference structure which assumes the variation in speech segments be induced by various speakers. The speaker variation is then learned from the training data. However, human…

State-of-the-art speaker diarization systems utilize knowledge from external data, in the form of a pre-trained distance metric, to effectively determine relative speaker identities to unseen data. However, much of recent focus has been on…

This paper investigates the use of target-speaker automatic speech recognition (TS-ASR) for simultaneous speech recognition and speaker diarization of single-channel dialogue recordings. TS-ASR is a technique to automatically extract and…

Speaker diarisation systems nowadays use embeddings generated from speech segments in a bottleneck layer, which are needed to be discriminative for unseen speakers. It is well-known that large-margin training can improve the generalisation…

End-to-end neural diarization has evolved considerably over the past few years, but data scarcity is still a major obstacle for further improvements. Self-supervised learning methods such as WavLM have shown promising performance on several…

Speech recognition (ASR) and speaker diarization (SD) models have traditionally been trained separately to produce rich conversation transcripts with speaker labels. Recent advances have shown that joint ASR and SD models can learn to…

Self-supervised-learning-based pre-trained models for speech data, such as Wav2Vec 2.0 (W2V2), have become the backbone of many speech tasks. In this paper, to achieve speaker diarisation and speech recognition using a single model, a…

This paper describes our solution for the Diarization of Speaker and Language in Conversational Environments Challenge (Displace 2023). We used a combination of VAD for finding segfments with speech, Resnet architecture based CNN for…

This paper presents a novel framework for joint speaker diarization (SD) and automatic speech recognition (ASR), named SLIDAR (sliding-window diarization-augmented recognition). SLIDAR can process arbitrary length inputs and can handle any…

Our focus lies in developing an online speaker diarisation framework which demonstrates robust performance across diverse domains. In online speaker diarisation, outputs generated in real-time are irreversible, and a few misjudgements in…

Regularization is important for end-to-end speech models, since the models are highly flexible and easy to overfit. Data augmentation and dropout has been important for improving end-to-end models in other domains. However, they are…
