Text-dependent Speaker Verification Challenge 2024: Exploring Shared and User-defined Passphrases

ICASSP 2025accepted

In contrast to text-independent speaker verification, which has received significant attention from researchers and has many competitions dedicated to it, text-dependent speaker verification (TdSV) has been less explored recently. The TdSV Challenge 2024 was organized to analyze and explore novel me…

But System for the Second Dihard Speech Diarization Challenge

ICASSP 2020accepted

This paper describes the winning systems developed by the BUT team for the four tracks of the Second DIHARD Speech Diarization Challenge. For tracks 1 and 2 the systems were mainly based on performing agglomerative hierarchical clustering (AHC) of x-vectors, followed by another x-vector clustering b…

How to Improve Your Speaker Embeddings Extractor in Generic Toolkits

ICASSP 2019accepted

Recently, speaker embeddings extracted with deep neural networks became the state-of-the-art method for speaker verification. In this paper we aim to facilitate its implementation on a more generic toolkit than Kaldi, which we anticipate to enable further improvements on the method. We examine sever…

Speaker Verification Using End-to-end Adversarial Language Adaptation

ICASSP 2019accepted

In this paper we investigate the use of adversarial domain adaptation for addressing the problem of language mismatch between speaker recognition corpora. In the context of speaker verification, adversarial domain adaptation methods aim at minimizing certain divergences between the distribution that…

Telephony text-prompted speaker verification using i-vector representation

ICASSP 2015accepted

I-vectors have proved to be the most effective features for text-independent speaker verification in recent researches. In this article a new scheme is proposed to utilize i-vectors in text-prompted speaker verification in a simple while effective manner. In order to examine this scheme empirically,…
