The Multitarget Challenge aims to assess how well current speech technology is able to determine whether or not a recorded utterance was spoken by one of a large number of blacklisted speakers. It is a form of multi-target speaker detection based on real-world telephone conversations. Data recordings are generated from call center customer-agent conversations. Each conversation is represented by a single i-vector. Given a pool of training and development data from non-Blacklist and Blacklist speakers, the task is to measure how accurately one can detect 1) whether a test recording is spoken by a Blacklist speaker, and 2) which specific Blacklist speaker was talking.

This report describes our submission to the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge (VoxSRC) at Interspeech 2020. We perform a careful analysis of speaker recognition models based on the popular ResNet architecture, and train a number of variants using a range of loss functions. Our results show significant improvements over most existing works without the use of model ensemble or post-processing. We release the training code and pre-trained models as unofficial baselines for this years challenge.
The automatic speaker verification spoofing and countermeasures (ASVspoof) challenge series is a community-led initiative which aims to promote the consideration of spoofing and the development of countermeasures. ASVspoof 2021 is the 4th in a series of bi-annual, competitive challenges where the goal is to develop countermeasures capable of discriminating between bona fide and spoofed or deepfake speech. This document provides a technical description of the ASVspoof 2021 challenge, including details of training, development and evaluation data, metrics, baselines, evaluation rules, submission procedures and the schedule.
This paper describes the Microsoft speaker diarization system for monaural multi-talker recordings in the wild, evaluated at the diarization track of the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge(VoxSRC) 2020. We will first explain our system design to address issues in handling real multi-talker recordings. We then present the details of the components, which include Res2Net-based speaker embedding extractor, conformer-based continuous speech separation with leakage filtering, and a modified DOVER (short for Diarization Output Voting Error Reduction) method for system fusion. We evaluate the systems with the data set provided by VoxSRCchallenge 2020, which contains real-life multi-talker audio collected from YouTube. Our best system achieves 3.71% and 6.23% of the diarization error rate (DER) on development set and evaluation set, respectively, being ranked the 1st at the diarization track of the challenge.
Multi-task learning (MTL) and attention mechanism have been proven to effectively extract robust acoustic features for various speech-related tasks in noisy environments. In this study, we propose an attention-based MTL (ATM) approach that integrates MTL and the attention-weighting mechanism to simultaneously realize a multi-model learning structure that performs speech enhancement (SE) and speaker identification (SI). The proposed ATM system consists of three parts: SE, SI, and attention-Net (AttNet). The SE part is composed of a long-short-term memory (LSTM) model, and a deep neural network (DNN) model is used to develop the SI and AttNet parts. The overall ATM system first extracts the representative features and then enhances the speech signals in LSTM-SE and specifies speaker identity in DNN-SI. The AttNet computes weights based on DNN-SI to prepare better representative features for LSTM-SE. We tested the proposed ATM system on Taiwan Mandarin hearing in noise test sentences. The evaluation results confirmed that the proposed system can effectively enhance speech quality and intelligibility of a given noisy input. Moreover, the accuracy of the SI can also be notably improved by using the proposed ATM system.
