Robust speaker recognition, including in the presence of malicious attacks, is becoming increasingly important and essential, especially due to the proliferation of several smart speakers and personal agents that interact with an individuals voice commands to perform diverse, and even sensitive tasks. Adversarial attack is a recently revived domain which is shown to be effective in breaking deep neural network-based classifiers, specifically, by forcing them to change their posterior distribution by only perturbing the input samples by a very small amount. Although, significant progress in this realm has been made in the computer vision domain, advances within speaker recognition is still limited. The present expository paper considers several state-of-the-art adversarial attacks to a deep speaker recognition system, employing strong defense methods as countermeasures, and reporting on several ablation studies to obtain a comprehensive understanding of the problem. The experiments show that the speaker recognition systems are vulnerable to adversarial attacks, and the strongest attacks can reduce the accuracy of the system from 94% to even 0%. The study also compares the performances of the employed defense methods in detail, and finds adversarial training based on Projected Gradient Descent (PGD) to be the best defense method in our setting. We hope that the experiments presented in this paper provide baselines that can be useful for the research community interested in further studying adversarial robustness of speaker recognition systems.

Deep neural network based speaker recognition systems can easily be deceived by an adversary using minuscule imperceptible perturbations to the input speech samples. These adversarial attacks pose serious security threats to the speaker recognition s ystems that use speech biometric. To address this concern, in this work, we propose a new defense mechanism based on a hybrid adversarial training (HAT) setup. In contrast to existing works on countermeasures against adversarial attacks in deep speaker recognition that only use class-boundary information by supervised cross-entropy (CE) loss, we propose to exploit additional information from supervised and unsupervised cues to craft diverse and stronger perturbations for adversarial training. Specifically, we employ multi-task objectives using CE, feature-scattering (FS), and margin losses to create adversarial perturbations and include them for adversarial training to enhance the robustness of the model. We conduct speaker recognition experiments on the Librispeech dataset, and compare the performance with state-of-the-art projected gradient descent (PGD)-based adversarial training which employs only CE objective. The proposed HAT improves adversarial accuracy by absolute 3.29% and 3.18% for PGD and Carlini-Wagner (CW) attacks respectively, while retaining high accuracy on benign examples.
Attacking deep learning based biometric systems has drawn more and more attention with the wide deployment of fingerprint/face/speaker recognition systems, given the fact that the neural networks are vulnerable to the adversarial examples, which have been intentionally perturbed to remain almost imperceptible for human. In this paper, we demonstrated the existence of the universal adversarial perturbations~(UAPs) for the speaker recognition systems. We proposed a generative network to learn the mapping from the low-dimensional normal distribution to the UAPs subspace, then synthesize the UAPs to perturbe any input signals to spoof the well-trained speaker recognition model with high probability. Experimental results on TIMIT and LibriSpeech datasets demonstrate the effectiveness of our model.

Deep Neural Network classifiers are vulnerable to adversarial attack, where an imperceptible perturbation could result in misclassification. However, the vulnerability of DNN-based image ranking systems remains under-explored. In this paper, we propo se two attacks against deep ranking systems, i.e., Candidate Attack and Query Attack, that can raise or lower the rank of chosen candidates by adversarial perturbations. Specifically, the expected ranking order is first represented as a set of inequalities, and then a triplet-like objective function is designed to obtain the optimal perturbation. Conversely, an anti-collapse triplet defense is proposed to improve the ranking model robustness against all proposed attacks, where the model learns to prevent the positive and negative samples being pulled close to each other by adversarial attack. To comprehensively measure the empirical adversarial robustness of a ranking model with our defense, we propose an empirical robustness score, which involves a set of representative attacks against ranking models. Our adversarial ranking attacks and defenses are evaluated on MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, CUB200-2011, CARS196 and Stanford Online Products datasets. Experimental results demonstrate that a typical deep ranking system can be effectively compromised by our attacks. Nevertheless, our defense can significantly improve the ranking system robustness, and simultaneously mitigate a wide range of attacks.
Deep speaker embedding has demonstrated state-of-the-art performance in speaker recognition tasks. However, one potential issue with this approach is that the speaker vectors derived from deep embedding models tend to be non-Gaussian for each individ ual speaker, and non-homogeneous for distributions of different speakers. These irregular distributions can seriously impact speaker recognition performance, especially with the popular PLDA scoring method, which assumes homogeneous Gaussian distribution. In this paper, we argue that deep speaker vectors require deep normalization, and propose a deep normalization approach based on a novel discriminative normalization flow (DNF) model. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach with experiments using the widely used SITW and CNCeleb corpora. In these experiments, the DNF-based normalization delivered substantial performance gains and also showed strong generalization capability in out-of-domain tests.
The ubiquitous presence of machine learning systems in our lives necessitates research into their vulnerabilities and appropriate countermeasures. In particular, we investigate the effectiveness of adversarial attacks and defenses against automatic s peech recognition (ASR) systems. We select two ASR models - a thoroughly studied DeepSpeech model and a more recent Espresso framework Transformer encoder-decoder model. We investigate two threat models: a denial-of-service scenario where fast gradient-sign method (FGSM) or weak projected gradient descent (PGD) attacks are used to degrade the models word error rate (WER); and a targeted scenario where a more potent imperceptible attack forces the system to recognize a specific phrase. We find that the attack transferability across the investigated ASR systems is limited. To defend the model, we use two preprocessing defenses: randomized smoothing and WaveGAN-based vocoder, and find that they significantly improve the models adversarial robustness. We show that a WaveGAN vocoder can be a useful countermeasure to adversarial attacks on ASR systems - even when it is jointly attacked with the ASR, the target phrases word error rate is high.
