Abstract

Learning an effective speaker representation is crucial for achieving reliable performance in speaker verification tasks. Speech signals are high-dimensional, long, and variable-length sequences containing diverse information at each time-frequency (TF) location. The standard convolutional layer that operates on neighboring local regions often fails to capture the complex TF global information. Our motivation is to alleviate these challenges by increasing the modeling capacity, emphasizing significant information, and suppressing possible redundancies. We aim to design a more robust and efficient speaker recognition system by incorporating the benefits of attention mechanisms and Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) based signal processing techniques, to effectively represent the global information in speech signals. To achieve this, we propose a general global time-frequency context modeling block for speaker modeling. First, an attention-based context model is introduced to capture the lo
