Researchers explore hierarchical clustering in speaker recognition AI

Researchers have developed new methods to understand the internal workings of AI models used for speaker recognition. By applying hierarchical clustering algorithms like SLINK and HDBSCAN, they identified that the AI's learned representations form structured, hierarchical groups rather than simple, independent clusters. A novel algorithm, Hierarchical Cluster-Class Matching (HCCM), was created to map these hierarchical groups to specific speaker characteristics, such as gender or regional accent, and a new metric, Liebig's score, was introduced to evaluate the accuracy of these mappings.

    Explainable AI in Speaker Recognition -- Making Latent Representations Understandable

    arXiv:2604.23354v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Neural networks can be trained to learn task-relevant representations from data. Understanding how these networks make decisions falls within the Explainable AI (XAI) domain. This paper proposes to study an XAI topic: uncovering u…
