Speaker verification systems have been used in many production scenarios in recent years. Unfortunately, they are still highly prone to different kinds of spoofing attacks such as voice conversion and speech synthesis, etc. In this paper, we propose a new method base on physiological-physical feature fusion to deal with voice spoofing attacks. This method involves feature extraction, a densely connected convolutional neural network with squeeze and excitation block (SE-DenseNet), multi-scale residual neural network with squeeze and excitation block (SE-Res2Net) and feature fusion strategies. We first pre-trained a convolutional neural network using the speakers voice and face in the video as surveillance signals. It can extract physiological features from speech. Then we use SE-DenseNet and SE-Res2Net to extract physical features. Such a densely connection pattern has high parameter efficiency and squeeze and excitation block can enhance the transmission of the feature. Finally, we integrate the two features into the SE-Densenet to identify the spoofing attacks. Experimental results on the ASVspoof 2019 data set show that our model is effective for voice spoofing detection. In the logical access scenario, our model improves the tandem decision cost function (t-DCF) and equal error rate (EER) scores by 4% and 7%, respectively, compared with other methods. In the physical access scenario, our model improved t-DCF and EER scores by 8% and 10%, respectively.

The threat of spoofing can pose a risk to the reliability of automatic speaker verification. Results from the bi-annual ASVspoof evaluations show that effective countermeasures demand front-ends designed specifically for the detection of spoofing art efacts. Given the diversity in spoofing attacks, ensemble methods are particularly effective. The work in this paper shows that a bank of very simple classifiers, each with a front-end tuned to the detection of different spoofing attacks and combined at the score level through non-linear fusion, can deliver superior performance than more sophisticated ensemble solutions that rely upon complex neural network architectures. Our comparatively simple approach outperforms all but 2 of the 48 systems submitted to the logical access condition of the most recent ASVspoof 2019 challenge.
The Voice Conversion Challenge 2020 is the third edition under its flagship that promotes intra-lingual semiparallel and cross-lingual voice conversion (VC). While the primary evaluation of the challenge submissions was done through crowd-sourced lis tening tests, we also performed an objective assessment of the submitted systems. The aim of the objective assessment is to provide complementary performance analysis that may be more beneficial than the time-consuming listening tests. In this study, we examined five types of objective assessments using automatic speaker verification (ASV), neural speaker embeddings, spoofing countermeasures, predicted mean opinion scores (MOS), and automatic speech recognition (ASR). Each of these objective measures assesses the VC output along different aspects. We observed that the correlations of these objective assessments with the subjective results were high for ASV, neural speaker embedding, and ASR, which makes them more influential for predicting subjective test results. In addition, we performed spoofing assessments on the submitted systems and identified some of the VC methods showing a potentially high security risk.
Anti-spoofing for automatic speaker verification is now a well established area of research, with three competitive challenges having been held in the last 6 years. A great deal of research effort over this time has been invested into the development of front-end representations tailored to the spoofing detection task. One such approach known as constant Q cepstral coefficients (CQCCs) have been shown to be especially effective in detecting attacks implemented with a unit selection based speech synthesis algorithm. Despite their success, they largely fail in detecting other forms of spoofing attack where more traditional front-end representations give substantially better results. Similar differences were also observed in the most recent, 2019 edition of the ASVspoof challenge series. This paper reports our attempts to help explain these observations. The explanation is shown to lie in the level of attention paid by each front-end to different sub-band components of the spectrum. Thus far, surprisingly little has been learned about what artefacts are being detected by spoofing countermeasures. Our work hence aims to shed light upon signal or spectrum level artefacts that serve to distinguish different forms of spoofing attack from genuine, bone fide speech. With a better understanding of these artefacts we will be better positioned to design more reliable countermeasures.
Detecting singing-voice in polyphonic instrumental music is critical to music information retrieval. To train a robust vocal detector, a large dataset marked with vocal or non-vocal label at frame-level is essential. However, frame-level labeling is time-consuming and labor expensive, resulting there is little well-labeled dataset available for singing-voice detection (S-VD). Hence, we propose a data augmentation method for S-VD by transfer learning. In this study, clean speech clips with voice activity endpoints and separate instrumental music clips are artificially added together to simulate polyphonic vocals to train a vocal/non-vocal detector. Due to the different articulation and phonation between speaking and singing, the vocal detector trained with the artificial dataset does not match well with the polyphonic music which is singing vocals together with the instrumental accompaniments. To reduce this mismatch, transfer learning is used to transfer the knowledge learned from the artificial speech-plus-music training set to a small but matched polyphonic dataset, i.e., singing vocals with accompaniments. By transferring the related knowledge to make up for the lack of well-labeled training data in S-VD, the proposed data augmentation method by transfer learning can improve S-VD performance with an F-score improvement from 89.5% to 93.2%.
Voice activity detection (VAD) is an essential pre-processing step for tasks such as automatic speech recognition (ASR) and speaker recognition. A basic goal is to remove silent segments within an audio, while a more general VAD system could remove a ll the irrelevant segments such as noise and even unwanted speech from non-target speakers. We define the task, which only detects the speech from the target speaker, as speaker-dependent voice activity detection (SDVAD). This task is quite common in real applications and usually implemented by performing speaker verification (SV) on audio segments extracted from VAD. In this paper, we propose an end-to-end neural network based approach to address this problem, which explicitly takes the speaker identity into the modeling process. Moreover, inference can be performed in an online fashion, which leads to low system latency. Experiments are carried out on a conversational telephone dataset generated from the Switchboard corpus. Results show that our proposed online approach achieves significantly better performance than the usual VAD/SV system in terms of both frame accuracy and F-score. We also used our previously proposed segment-level metric for a more comprehensive analysis.
