VoxCeleb2: Deep Speaker Recognition
The objective of this paper is speaker recognition under noisy and
unconstrained conditions.
We make two key contributions. First, we introduce a very large-scale
audio-visual speaker recognition dataset collected from open-source media.
Using a fully automated pipeline, we curate VoxCeleb2 which contains over a
million utterances from over 6,000 speakers. This is several times larger than
any publicly available speaker recognition dataset.
Second, we develop and compare Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models and
training strategies that can effectively recognise identities from voice under
various conditions. The models trained on the VoxCeleb2 dataset surpass the
performance of previous works on a benchmark dataset by a significant margin.Comment: To appear in Interspeech 2018. The audio-visual dataset can be

Speech Emotion Recognition Using Multi-hop Attention Mechanism
In this paper, we are interested in exploiting textual and acoustic data of
an utterance for the speech emotion classification task. The baseline approach
models the information from audio and text independently using two deep neural
networks (DNNs). The outputs from both the DNNs are then fused for
classification. As opposed to using knowledge from both the modalities
separately, we propose a framework to exploit acoustic information in tandem
with lexical data. The proposed framework uses two bi-directional long
short-term memory (BLSTM) for obtaining hidden representations of the
utterance. Furthermore, we propose an attention mechanism, referred to as the
multi-hop, which is trained to automatically infer the correlation between the
modalities. The multi-hop attention first computes the relevant segments of the
textual data corresponding to the audio signal. The relevant textual data is
then applied to attend parts of the audio signal. To evaluate the performance
of the proposed system, experiments are performed in the IEMOCAP dataset.
Experimental results show that the proposed technique outperforms the
state-of-the-art system by 6.5% relative improvement in terms of weighted
accuracy.Comment: 5 pages, Accepted as a conference paper at ICASSP 2019 (oral

Leveraging a Hybrid Deep Learning Architecture for Efficient Emotion Recognition in Audio Processing
This paper presents a novel hybrid deep learning architecture for emotion recognition from speech signals, which has garnered significant interest in recent years due to its potential applications in various fields such as healthcare, psychology, and entertainment. The proposed architecture combines modified ResNet-34 and RoBERTa models to extract meaningful features from speech signals and classify them into different emotion categories. The model is evaluated on five standard emotion recognition datasets, including RAVDESS, EmoDB, SAVEE, CREMA-D, and TESS, and achieves state-of-the-art performance on all datasets. The experimental results show that the proposed hybrid architecture outperforms existing emotion recognition models, achieving high accuracy and F1 scores for emotion classification. The proposed architecture is promising for real-time emotion recognition applications and can be applied in various domains such as speech-based emotion recognition systems, human-computer interaction, and virtual assistants
