Unsupervised speaker indexing using speaker model selection based on Bayesian information criterion
This paper addresses unsupervised speaker indexing for discussion audio archives. In discussions, the speaker changes frequently, thus the duration of utterances is very short and its variation is large, which causes significant problems in applying conventional methods such as model adaptation and VarianceBIC (Bayesian Information Criterion) methods. We propose a flexible framework that select...
متن کاملSpeaker model selection using Bayesian information criterion for speaker indexing and speaker adaptation
This paper addresses unsupervised speaker indexing for discussion audio archives. We propose a flexible framework that selects an optimal speaker model (GMM or VQ) based on the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) according to input utterances. The framework makes it possible to use a discrete model when the data is sparse, and to seamlessly switch to a continuous model after a large cluster is...
متن کاملSpeaker Clustering Based on Bayesian Information Criterion
This paper presents an effective method for clustering unknown speech utterances based on their associated speakers. The proposed method jointly optimizes the generated clusters and the number of clusters according to a Bayesian information criterion (BIC). The criterion assesses a partitioning of utterances based on how high the level of withincluster homogeneity can be achieved at the expense...
متن کاملSpeaker model quantization for unsupervised speaker indexing
Speaker indexing sequentially detects points where speaker identity changes in a multi-speaker audio stream, and classifies each detected segment according to the speaker’s identity. In unsupervised speaker indexing scenarios, there is no prior information/data about the speakers in the target data. To address this issue, a predetermined generic “speaker-independent” model set, called Sample Sp...
متن کاملRedefining the Bayesian information criterion for speaker diarisation
A novel approach to the Bayesian Information Criterion (BIC) is introduced. The new criterion redefines the penalty terms of the BIC, such that each parameter is penalized with the effective sample size is trained with. Contrary to Local-BIC, the proposed criterion scores overall clustering hypotheses and therefore is not restricted to hierarchical clustering algorithms. Contrary to Global-BIC,...
