Speaker Verification Determine whether unknown speaker matches a specific speaker One-to-one mapping Close-set verification: The population of clients is fixed Open-set verification: New clients can be added without having to redesign the system Is this Bob' s voice?
Speaker Verification • Determine whether unknown speaker matches a specific speaker • One-to-one mapping • Close-set verification: The population of clients is fixed • Open-set verification: New clients can be added without having to redesign the system
Speaker diarization Determine when a speaker change has occurred in speech signal (segmentation) Group together speech segments corresponding to the same speaker( clustering) Prior speaker information may or may not be available Where are speaker Which segments are from changes? the same speaker?
Speaker diarization • Determine when a speaker change has occurred in speech signal (segmentation) • Group together speech segments corresponding to the same speaker (clustering) • Prior speaker information may or may not be available
