Geometric contamination for GMM/UBM speaker verification in reverberant environments
Reverberation generated by multi-path acoustic propagation in enclosures is one of the most critical issues for distant-speech speaker verification systems. While late arrivals can be treated as additive noise, early reflections critically affects the speech spectral properties that allow differentiating among speakers. Considering a standard GMM/UBM speaker verification system based on MFCC, a...
متن کاملImproving GMM-UBM speaker verification using discriminative feedback adaptation
The Gaussian Mixture Model Universal Background Model (GMM-UBM) system is one of the predominant approaches for text-independent speaker verification, because both the target speaker model and the impostor model (UBM) have generalization ability to handle “unseen” acoustic patterns. However, since GMM-UBM uses a common anti-model, namely UBM, for all target speakers, it tends to be weak in reje...
متن کاملOptimization of GMM training for speaker verification
EM training of GMM often suffers from the existence of local maxima and singularities in the likelihood space. In this paper, we present a new Modified Split-and-Merge EM algorithm (MSMEM) for speaker verification tasks, which performs split-and-merge operations to escape from local maxima and reduce the chances of generating singularities. With two modified criteria to select split-and-merge c...
متن کاملText Dependent Speaker Verification Using Un-Supervised HMM-UBM and Temporal GMM-UBM
In this paper, we investigate the Hidden Markov Model (HMM) and the temporal Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) systems based on the Universal Background Model (UBM) concept to capture temporal information of speech for Text Dependent (TD) Speaker Verification (SV). In TD-SV, target speakers are constrained to use only predefined fixed sentence/s during both the enrollment and the test process. The t...
متن کاملGMM-UBM based open-set online speaker diarization
In this paper, we present an open-set online speaker diarization system. The system is based on Gaussian mixture models (GMMs), which are used as speaker models. The system starts with just 3 such models (one each for both genders and one for non-speech) and creates models for individual speakers not till the speakers occur. As more and more speakers appear, more models are created. Our system ...
