Contents SNR-invariant PLDA modeling for Robust Speaker Verification Background and Motivation of Work SNR-invariant PLDA modeling for Robust Speaker Verification Experiments on SRE12 Conclusions 2

Background I-vector/PLDA Framework m : Global mean of all i-vectors V : Bases of speaker subspace : Latent speaker factor with a standard normal distribution : Residual term follows a Gaussian distribution with zero mean and full covariance : Length-normalized i-vector of speaker i

Background In conventional multi-condition training, we pool i-vectors from various background noise levels to train m, V and Σ. I-vectors with 2 SNR ranges EM Algorithm

Motivation We argue that the variation caused by SNR can be modeled by an SNR subspace and utterances falling within a narrow SNR range should share the same set of SNR factors. SNR Subspace SNR Factor 1 Group1 SNR Factor 2 Group2 SNR Factor 3 Group3

Motivation Method of modeling SNR information i-vector 6 dB SNR Subspace 15 dB clean I-vector Space

Distribution of SNR in SRE12 Each SNR region is handled by a specific set of SNR factors

Contents Background Motivation of Work SNR-invariant PLDA modeling for Robust Speaker Verification Experiments on SRE12 Conclusions

SNR-invariant PLDA PLDA: By adding an SNR factor to the conventional PLDA, we have SNR-invariant PLDA: where U denotes the SNR subspace, is an SNR factor, and is the speaker (identity) factor for speaker i. Note that it is not the same as PLDA with channel subspace: i: Speaker index j: Session index k: SNR index

SNR-invariant PLDA We separate I-vectors into different groups according to the SNR of their utterances EM Algorithm

Conclusions We show that while I-vectors of different SNR fall on different regions of the I-vector space, they vary within a single cluster in an SNR-subspace. Therefore, it is possible to model the SNR variability by adding an SNR loading matrix and SNR factors to the conventional PLDA model.
