Abstract: A system for generating channel-compensated features of a speech signal includes a channel noise simulator that degrades the speech signal, a feed forward convolutional neural network (CNN) that generates channel-compensated features of the degraded speech signal, and a loss function that computes a difference between the channel-compensated features and handcrafted features for the same raw speech signal. Each loss result may be used to update connection weights of the CNN until a predetermined threshold loss is satisfied, and the CNN may be used as a front-end for a deep neural network (DNN) for speaker recognition/verification. The DNN may include convolutional layers, a bottleneck features layer, multiple fully-connected layers and an output layer. The bottleneck features may be used to update connection weights of the convolutional layers, and dropout may be applied to the convolutional layers.

Abstract: Systems and methods may generate, by a computer, a voice model for an enrollee based upon a set of one or more features extracted from a first audio sample received at a first time; receive at a second time a second audio sample associated with a caller; generate a likelihood score for the second audio sample by applying the voice model associated with the enrollee on the set of features extracted from the second audio sample associated with the caller, the likelihood score indicating a likelihood that the caller is the enrollee; calibrate the likelihood score based upon a time interval from the first time to the second time and at least one of: an enrollee age at the first time and an enrollee gender; and authenticate the caller as the enrollee upon the computer determining that the likelihood score satisfies a predetermined threshold score.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a deep neural network (DNN) having a triplet network architecture, which is suitable to perform speaker recognition. In particular, the DNN includes three feed-forward neural networks, which are trained according to a batch process utilizing a cohort set of negative training samples. After each batch of training samples is processed, the DNN may be trained according to a loss function, e.g., utilizing a cosine measure of similarity between respective samples, along with positive and negative margins, to provide a robust representation of voiceprints.

Abstract: Utterances of at least two speakers in a speech signal may be distinguished and the associated speaker identified by use of diarization together with automatic speech recognition of identifying words and phrases commonly in the speech signal. The diarization process clusters turns of the conversation while recognized special form phrases and entity names identify the speakers. A trained probabilistic model deduces which entity name(s) correspond to the clusters.
