Speaker-Aware Anti-Spoofing
Xuechen Liu, Md Sahidullah, Kong Aik Lee +1
We address speaker-aware anti-spoofing, where prior knowledge of the target speaker is incorporated into a voice spoofing countermeasure (CM). In contrast to the frequently used sp…
Incorporating Uncertainty from Speaker Embedding Estimation to Speaker Verification
Qiongqiong Wang, Kong Aik Lee, Tianchi Liu
Speech utterances recorded under differing conditions exhibit varying degrees of confidence in their embedding estimates, i.e., uncertainty, even if they are extracted using the sa…
Cross-modal Audio-visual Co-learning for Text-independent Speaker Verification
Meng Liu, Kong Aik Lee, Longbiao Wang +3
Visual speech (i.e., lip motion) is highly related to auditory speech due to the co-occurrence and synchronization in speech production. This paper investigates this correlation an…
Probabilistic Back-ends for Online Speaker Recognition and Clustering
Alexey Sholokhov, Nikita Kuzmin, Kong Aik Lee +1
This paper focuses on multi-enrollment speaker recognition which naturally occurs in the task of online speaker clustering, and studies the properties of different scoring back-end…
