Additive noise is one of the main challenges for automatic speaker recognition and several compensation techniques have been proposed to deal with this problem. In this paper, we present a new ”data-driven” denoising technique operating in the i-vector space based on a joint modeling of clean and noisy i-vectors. The joint distribution is estimated using a large set of i-vectors pairs (clean i-...
