Overview:
The following paper presents an application that fuses the currently artificially separated tasks of speaker identification and speaker diarization. The presented method allows online identification of who is currently speaking using a single far-field microphone in a meeting scenario. It is able to recognize the current speaker after any two seconds of speech. An evaluation of the robustness of the algorithm using the AMI Meeting Corpus resulted in a Diarization Error Rate of 12.67%
