We investigate usefulness of across-phone variability for speaker recognition in a joint factor analysis (JFA) framework. We estimate the variability as across-phone covariance wi...
The difficulty of obtaining data from impostors and the scarcity of data are two factors that have a large influence in the estimation of speakerdependent thresholds in text-depend...
This paper describes a new method for fast speaker adaptation in large vocabulary recognition systems. As in most HMM-based recognizers, the observation densities are modeled as a...

In this paper, we present a novel approach for tracking a lecturer during the course of his speech. We use features from multiple cameras and microphones, and process them in a jo...

This paper addresses the problem of speaker segmentation in two-speaker telephone conversations, using an eigenvoice based factor analysis approach. We present a set of improvemen...
