Adaptive Speaker Embedding Self-Augmentation for Personal Voice Activity Detection with Short Enrollment Speech

Abstract

Personal Voice Activity Detection (PVAD) is crucial for identifying target speaker segments in the mixture, yet its performance heavily depends on the quality of speaker embeddings. A key practical limitation is the short enrollment speech--such as a wake-up word--which provides limited cues. This paper proposes a novel adaptive speaker embedding self-augmentation strategy that enhances PVAD performance by augmenting the original enrollment embeddings through additive fusion of keyframe embeddings extracted from mixed speech. Furthermore, we introduce a long-term adaptation strategy to iteratively refine embeddings during detection, mitigating speaker temporal variability. Experiments show significant gains in recall, precision, and F1-score under short enrollment conditions, matching full-length enrollment performance after five iterative updates.
