Anti-spoofing Methods for Automatic SpeakerVerification System
Growing interest in automatic speaker verification (ASV)systems has lead to
significant quality improvement of spoofing attackson them. Many research works
confirm that despite the low equal er-ror rate (EER) ASV systems are still
vulnerable to spoofing attacks. Inthis work we overview different acoustic
feature spaces and classifiersto determine reliable and robust countermeasures
against spoofing at-tacks. We compared several spoofing detection systems,
presented so far,on the development and evaluation datasets of the Automatic
SpeakerVerification Spoofing and Countermeasures (ASVspoof) Challenge
2015.Experimental results presented in this paper demonstrate that the useof
magnitude and phase information combination provides a substantialinput into
the efficiency of the spoofing detection systems. Also wavelet-based features
show impressive results in terms of equal error rate. Inour overview we compare
spoofing performance for systems based on dif-ferent classifiers. Comparison
results demonstrate that the linear SVMclassifier outperforms the conventional
GMM approach. However, manyresearchers inspired by the great success of deep
neural networks (DNN)approaches in the automatic speech recognition, applied
DNN in thespoofing detection task and obtained quite low EER for known and
un-known type of spoofing attacks.Comment: 12 pages, 0 figures, published in Springer Communications in Computer

Protecting Voice Controlled Systems Using Sound Source Identification Based on Acoustic Cues
Over the last few years, a rapidly increasing number of Internet-of-Things
(IoT) systems that adopt voice as the primary user input have emerged. These
systems have been shown to be vulnerable to various types of voice spoofing
attacks. Existing defense techniques can usually only protect from a specific
type of attack or require an additional authentication step that involves
another device. Such defense strategies are either not strong enough or lower
the usability of the system. Based on the fact that legitimate voice commands
should only come from humans rather than a playback device, we propose a novel
defense strategy that is able to detect the sound source of a voice command
based on its acoustic features. The proposed defense strategy does not require
any information other than the voice command itself and can protect a system
from multiple types of spoofing attacks. Our proof-of-concept experiments
verify the feasibility and effectiveness of this defense strategy.Comment: Proceedings of the 27th International Conference on Computer
