Attribute-driven privacy aims to conceal a single user’s attribute, contrary to anonymisation that tries to hide the full identity of the user in some data. When the attribute to protect from malicious inferences is binary, perfect privacy requires the log-likelihood-ratio to be zero resulting in no…
Spoofing countermeasures aim to protect automatic speaker verification systems from being manipulated by spoofed speech signals. While results from the most recent ASVspoof 2019 evaluation show great potential to detect most forms of attack, some continue to evade detection. This paper reports the f…
The vast majority of text-independent speaker recognition systems rely on intermediate-sized vectors (i-vectors), which are compared by probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA). This paper proposes a PLDA-alike approach with restricted Boltzmann machines for i-vector based speaker recogniti…
The vast majority of speaker recognition cross-entropy evaluations are focused on score domain. By examining the generalized relative distance between genuine and impostor sub-spaces, biometric characteristics become comparable to other authentication approaches. In this paper we demonstrate that th…
