Clustering short push-to-talk segments

Ilya Shapiro, Neta Rabin, Irit Opher, Itshak Lapidot

We present a method for clustering short push-to-talk speech segments in the presence of different numbers of speakers. Iterative Mean Shift algorithm based on the cosine distance is used to perform speaker clustering on i-vectors generated from many short speech segments. We report results as measured by the Accuracy, the average number of detected speakers (ANDS), the average cluster purity (ACP), the average speaker purity (ASP) and K . We achieve clustering accuracy of: 90.0%, 86.9% and 72.1% for 3, 15 and 60 speakers respectively.
