Abstract

This paper describes a novel approach to improve monoaural
speaker identification where two speakers are present in a
single-microphone recording. The goal is to identify both of
the underlying speakers in the given mixture. The proposed
approach is composed of a double-talk detector (DTD) as a preprocessor
and speaker identification back-end. We demonstrate
that including the double-talk detector improves the speaker
identification accuracy. Experiments on GRID corpus show that
including the DTD improves average recognition accuracy from
96.53% to 97.43%.
