Speaker diarization is the ability to compare, recognize, comprehend and segregate different sound waves on the basis of the identity of the speaker. This work aims to accomplish this process by segmenting, embedding and clustering the extracted features from the speech sample. In this work, Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) are extracted and fed into Bi-Directional Long Short-Term Memory (Bi-LSTM) model for segmentation. Then d- vectors are extracted using pre-trained models from pyannote libraries. Spectral Clustering is used to group and segregate the audio of one speaker from another. The experimentation is carried out on two speaker speech audio files and the results indicate that the diarization is successful. The diarization error rate of 9.4% for a 2-speaker audio file is the lowest DER achieved for the given data set. This indicates the efficiency of the system and also justifies the combination of methods chosen at each step. By considering such exciting technical trends, we believe the work presented in the paper represents a valuable contribution for the community by providing the recent developments using Bi-LSTM and spectral clustering methods, which enables the future development towards speaker diarization.
