DRES: Fake news detection by dynamic representation and ensemble selection

EMNLP 2025

The rapid spread of information via social media has made text-based fake news detection critically important due to its societal impact. This paper presents a novel detection method called Dynamic Representation and Ensemble Selection (DRES) for identifying fake news based solely on text. DRES leve

Optimizing speaker-specific filter banks for speaker verification

ICASSP 2017accepted

In this work, we investigate speaker-specific filter banks for text-independent speaker verification. The proposed method performs an heuristic search for the best filter-bank configuration using the Artificial Bee Colony (ABC) algorithm and a proper fitness function for the standard i-vectors/PLDA-…

Speaker segmentation using i-vector in meetings domain

ICASSP 2017accepted

In this paper, we propose a speaker segmentation method for meeting audio based on i-vector. The motivation is to utilize the Total Variability (TV) framework as a feature extractor and to exploit the potential of modeling the speaker and channel variabilities for speaker segmentation in meetings. A…

Type-2 fuzzy GMM for text-independent speaker verification under unseen noise conditions

ICASSP 2016accepted

This paper describes a novel GMM-UBM based system that deals with the session noise variability problem. The system uses the Type-2 Fuzzy GMM framework by considering the speaker GMM parameters to be uncertain in an interval. The parameters intervals are estimated using a multicondition model traini…
