Transformer Speech Diarization
Last edited: August 8, 2025Background
Current deep-learning first approaches have shown promising results for the speech text diarization task. For ASR-independent diarization, specifically, two main methods appear as yielding fruitful conclusions:
Auditory feature extraction using deep learning to create a trained, fixed-size latent representation via Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients slices that came from any existing voice-activity detection (VAD) scheme ((Snyder et al. 2018)), where the features extracted with the neural network are later used with traditional clustering and Variational Bayes refinement ((Sell et al. 2018; Landini et al. 2022)) approaches to produce groups of diarized speakers

Spectrum of Translation
domestication and foreignization are processes by which a translator can choose to alter the style of a translation for a purpose.
foreignization
trying to bring the target language closer to the source language
- bring in foreign words
- use colourful idioms
- use old words
domestication
trying to bring he source language closer to the target language
