The LEAP submission for DIHARD-III challenge is described in this paper. The proposed system is composed of a speech bandwidth classifier, and diarization systems fine-tuned for narrowband and wideband speech separately. We use an end-to-end speaker diarization system for the narrowband conversational telephone speech ...

In this paper, we propose an overlapping speech detection (OSD) system for real multiparty meetings.

Target-speaker voice activity detection (TS-VAD) has recently shown promising results for speaker diarization on highly overlapped speech. However, the original model requires a fixed (and known) number of speakers, which limits its application to real conversations. In this paper, we extend TS-VAD to speaker diarizati...

Traditionally, a speaker diarization system has multiple components to extract and cluster speaker embeddings. However, end-to-end diarization is more desirable as it facilitates optimizing one model in contrast to multiple components in a traditional set up. Moreover, end-to-end diarization systems are capable of hand...

Neural network-based language models are commonly used in rescoring approaches to improve the quality of modern automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. Most of the existing methods are computationally expensive since they use autoregressive language models. We propose a novel rescoring approach, which processes the...
