Enhancing Speaker Verification with Whispered Speech via Post-Processing

ArXi:2604.20229v1 Announce Type: cross Speaker verification is a task of confirming an individual's identity through the analysis of their voice. Whispered speech differs from phonated speech in acoustic characteristics, which degrades the performance of speaker verification systems in real-life scenarios, including avoiding fully phonated speech to protect privacy, disrupt others, or when the lack of full vocalization is dictated by a disease.
