Abstract

One of the most important parts of an end-to-end speaker verification system is the speaker embedding generation. In our previous paper, we reported that shortcut connections-based multi-layer aggregation improves the representational power of the speaker embedding. However, the number of model parameters is relatively large and the unspecified variations increase in the multi-layer aggregation. Therefore, we propose a self-attentive multi-layer aggregation with feature recalibration and normalization for end-to-end speaker verification system. To reduce the number of model parameters, the ResNet, which scaled channel width and layer depth, is used as a baseline. To control the variability in the training, a self-attention mechanism is applied to perform the multi-layer aggregation with dropout regularizations and batch normalizations. Then, a feature recalibration layer is applied to the aggregated feature using fully-connected layers and nonlinear activation functions. Deep length no
