Robustness of ad hoc microphone clustering using speaker embeddings: evaluation under realistic and challenging scenarios

Abstract Speaker embeddings, from the ECAPA-TDNN speaker verification network, were recently introduced as features for the task of clustering microphones in ad hoc arrays. Our previous work demonstrated that, in comparison to signal-based Mod-MFCC features, using speaker embeddings yielded a more r...
