The performance of most speaker diarization systems with x-vector embeddings is both vulnerable to noisy environments and lacks domain robustness. Earlier work on speaker diarization using generative adversarial network (GAN) with an encoder network (ClusterGAN) to project input x-vectors into a latent space has shown promising performance on meeting data. In this paper, we extend the ClusterGAN network to improve diarization robustness and enable rapid generalization across various challenging domains. To this end, we fetch the pre-trained encoder from the ClusterGAN and fine-tune it by using prototypical loss (meta-ClusterGAN or MCGAN) under the meta-learning paradigm. Experiments are conducted on CALLHOME telephonic conversations, AMI meeting data, DIHARD II (dev set) which includes challenging multi-domain corpus, and two child-clinician interaction corpora (ADOS, BOSCC) related to the autism spectrum disorder domain. Extensive analyses of the experimental data are done to investigate the effectiveness of the proposed ClusterGAN and MCGAN embeddings over x-vectors. The results show that the proposed embeddings with normalized maximum eigengap spectral clustering (NME-SC) back-end consistently outperform Kaldi state-of-the-art z-vector diarization system. Finally, we employ embedding fusion with x-vectors to provide further improvement in diarization performance. We achieve a relative diarization error rate (DER) improvement of 6.67% to 53.93% on the aforementioned datasets using the proposed fused embeddings over x-vectors. Besides, the MCGAN embeddings provide better performance in the number of speakers estimation and short speech segment diarization as compared to x-vectors and ClusterGAN in telephonic data.

In this work, we propose deep latent space clustering for speaker diarization using generative adversarial network (GAN) backprojection with the help of an encoder network. The proposed diarization system is trained jointly with GAN loss, latent vari
able recovery loss, and a clustering-specific loss. It uses x-vector speaker embeddings at the input, while the latent variables are sampled from a combination of continuous random variables and discrete one-hot encoded variables using the original speaker labels. We benchmark our proposed system on the AMI meeting corpus, and two child-clinician interaction corpora (ADOS and BOSCC) from the autism diagnosis domain. ADOS and BOSCC contain diagnostic and treatment outcome sessions respectively obtained in clinical settings for verbal children and adolescents with autism. Experimental results show that our proposed system significantly outperform the state-of-the-art x-vector based diarization system on these databases. Further, we perform embedding fusion with x-vectors to achieve a relative DER improvement of 31%, 36% and 49% on AMI eval, ADOS and BOSCC corpora respectively, when compared to the x-vector baseline using oracle speech segmentation.
In this paper, we propose an online speaker diarization system based on Relation Network, named RenoSD. Unlike conventional diariztion systems which consist of several independently-optimized modules, RenoSD implements voice-activity-detection (VAD),
embedding extraction, and speaker identity association using a single deep neural network. The most striking feature of RenoSD is that it adopts a meta-learning strategy for speaker identity association. In particular, the relation network learns to learn a deep distance metric in a data-driven way and it can determine through a simple forward pass whether two given segments belong to the same speaker. As such, RenoSD can be performed in an online manner with low latency. Experimental results on AMI and CALLHOME datasets show that the proposed RenoSD system achieves consistent improvements over the state-of-the-art x-vector baseline. Compared with an existing online diarization system named UIS-RNN, RenoSD achieves a better performance using much fewer training data and at a lower time complexity.
Meta-learning (ML) has recently become a research hotspot in speaker verification (SV). We introduce two methods to improve the meta-learning training for SV in this paper. For the first method, a backbone embedding network is first jointly trained w
ith the conventional cross entropy loss and prototypical networks (PN) loss. Then, inspired by speaker adaptive training in speech recognition, additional transformation coefficients are trained with only the PN loss. The transformation coefficients are used to modify the original backbone embedding network in the x-vector extraction process. Furthermore, the random erasing (RE) data augmentation technique is applied to all support samples in each episode to construct positive pairs, and a contrastive loss between the augmented and the original support samples is added to the objective in model training. Experiments are carried out on the Speaker in the Wild (SITW) and VOiCES databases. Both of the methods can obtain consistent improvements over existing meta-learning training frameworks. By combining these two methods, we can observe further improvements on these two databases.
Speaker diarization relies on the assumption that speech segments corresponding to a particular speaker are concentrated in a specific region of the speaker space; a region which represents that speakers identity. These identities are not known a pri
ori, so a clustering algorithm is typically employed, which is traditionally based solely on audio. Under noisy conditions, however, such an approach poses the risk of generating unreliable speaker clusters. In this work we aim to utilize linguistic information as a supplemental modality to identify the various speakers in a more robust way. We are focused on conversational scenarios where the speakers assume distinct roles and are expected to follow different linguistic patterns. This distinct linguistic variability can be exploited to help us construct the speaker identities. That way, we are able to boost the diarization performance by converting the clustering task to a classification one. The proposed method is applied in real-world dyadic psychotherapy interactions between a provider and a patient and demonstrated to show improved results.
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.
