This paper presents the results and analyses stemming from the first VoicePrivacy 2020 Challenge which focuses on developing anonymization solutions for speech technology. We provide a systematic overview of the challenge design with an analysis of submitted systems and evaluation results. In particular, we describe the voice anonymization task and datasets used for system development and evaluation. Also, we present different attack models and the associated objective and subjective evaluation metrics. We introduce two anonymization baselines and provide a summary description of the anonymization systems developed by the challenge participants. We report objective and subjective evaluation results for baseline and submitted systems. In addition, we present experimental results for alternative privacy metrics and attack models developed as a part of the post-evaluation analysis. Finally, we summarize our insights and observations that will influence the design of the next VoicePrivacy challenge edition and some directions for future voice anonymization research.

We present the Zero Resource Speech Challenge 2019, which proposes to build a speech synthesizer without any text or phonetic labels: hence, TTS without T (text-to-speech without text). We provide raw audio for a target voice in an unknown language ( the Voice dataset), but no alignment, text or labels. Participants must discover subword units in an unsupervised way (using the Unit Discovery dataset) and align them to the voice recordings in a way that works best for the purpose of synthesizing novel utterances from novel speakers, similar to the target speakers voice. We describe the metrics used for evaluation, a baseline system consisting of unsupervised subword unit discovery plus a standard TTS system, and a topline TTS using gold phoneme transcriptions. We present an overview of the 19 submitted systems from 10 teams and discuss the main results.

The INTERSPEECH 2020 Far-Field Speaker Verification Challenge (FFSVC 2020) addresses three different research problems under well-defined conditions: far-field text-dependent speaker verification from single microphone array, far-field text-independe nt speaker verification from single microphone array, and far-field text-dependent speaker verification from distributed microphone arrays. All three tasks pose a cross-channel challenge to the participants. To simulate the real-life scenario, the enrollment utterances are recorded from close-talk cellphone, while the test utterances are recorded from the far-field microphone arrays. In this paper, we describe the database, the challenge, and the baseline system, which is based on a ResNet-based deep speaker network with cosine similarity scoring. For a given utterance, the speaker embeddings of different channels are equally averaged as the final embedding. The baseline system achieves minDCFs of 0.62, 0.66, and 0.64 and EERs of 6.27%, 6.55%, and 7.18% for task 1, task 2, and task 3, respectively.
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 usin g 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.
We held the second installment of the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge in conjunction with Interspeech 2020. The goal of this challenge was to assess how well current speaker recognition technology is able to diarise and recognize speakers in u nconstrained or `in the wild data. It consisted of: (i) a publicly available speaker recognition and diarisation dataset from YouTube videos together with ground truth annotation and standardised evaluation software; and (ii) a virtual public challenge and workshop held at Interspeech 2020. This paper outlines the challenge, and describes the baselines, methods used, and results. We conclude with a discussion of the progress over the first installment of the challenge.
We report our NTU-AISG Text-to-speech (TTS) entry systems for the Blizzard Challenge 2020 in this paper. There are two TTS tasks in this years challenge, one is a Mandarin TTS task, the other is a Shanghai dialect TTS task. We have participated both. One of the main challenges is to build TTS systems with low-resource constraints, particularly for the case of Shanghai dialect, of which about three hours data are available to participants. To overcome the constraint, we adopt an average-speaker modeling method. That is, we first employ external Mandarin data to train both End-to-end acoustic model and WaveNet vocoder, then we use Shanghai dialect to tune the acoustic model and WaveNet vocoder respectively. Apart from this, we have no Shanghai dialect lexicon despite syllable transcripts are provided for the training data. Since we are not sure if similar syllable transcripts are provided for the evaluation data during the training stage, we use Mandarin lexicon for Shanghai dialect instead. With the letter, as decomposed from the corresponding Mandarin syllable, as input, though the naturalness and original speaker similarity of the synthesized speech are good, subjective evaluation results indicate the intelligibility of the synthesized speech is deeply undermined for the Shanghai dialect TTS system.
