Deep neural network based i-vector mapping for speaker verification using short utterances

2018 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Text-independent speaker recognition using short utterances is a highly challenging task due to the large variation and content mismatch between short utterances. I-vector based systems have become the standard in speaker verification applications, but they …

Robust Transfer Learning with Pretrained Language Models through Adapters

2021 · arXiv (Cornell University)

Transfer learning with large pretrained transformer-based language models like BERT has become a dominating approach for most NLP tasks. Simply fine-tuning those large language models on downstream tasks or combining it with task-specific pretraining is …
