Improving Speaker Diarization using Semantic Information: Joint Pairwise Constraints Propagation

Speaker diarization has gained considerable attention within speech processing research community. Mainstream speaker diarization rely primarily on speakers' voice characteristics extracted from acoustic signals and often overlook the potential of semantic information. Considering the fact that speech signals can efficiently convey the content of a speech, it is of our interest to fully exploit these semantic cues utilizing language models. In this work we propose a novel approach to effectively leverage semantic information in clustering-based speaker diarization systems. Firstly, we …
