A complete speech segmentation system using Kaldi and x-vectors for voice activity detection (VAD) and speaker diarisation.

Overview

bbc-speech-segmenter: Voice Activity Detection & Speaker Diarization

A complete speech segmentation system using Kaldi and x-vectors for voice activity detection (VAD) and speaker diarisation.

The x-vector-vad system is described in the paper; Ogura, M. & Haynes, M. (2021) X-vector-vad for Multi-genre Broadcast Speech-to-text. The paper has been submitted to 2021 IEEE Automatic Speech Recognition and Understanding Workshop (ASRU) and is currently under review as of June 2021.

# Run segmentation (VAD + diarisation), results are in output-dir/diarize.stm

# Train x-vector classifier

$ docker run -w /wrk/recipe -v `pwd`:/wrk bbcrd/bbc-speech-segmenter \

Audio & STM file format

In order to run the segmentation script you need your audio in 16Khz Mono WAV format. You also need an STM file describing the segments you want to apply voice activity detection and speaker diarization to.

For more information on the STM file format see XVECTOR_UTILS.md.

# Convert audio file to 16Khz mono wav

$ ffmpeg audio.mp3 -vn -ac 1 -ar 16000 audio.wav

# Create STM file for input

$ DURATION=$(ffprobe -i audio.wav -show_entries format=duration -v quiet -of csv="p=0")
$ DURATION=$(printf "%0.2f\n" $DURATION)

$ FILENAME=$(basename audio.wav)

$ echo "${FILENAME%.*} 0 ${FILENAME%.*} 0.00 $DURATION <label> _" > audio.stm

$ cat audio.stm
audio 0 audio 0.00 60.00 <label> _

Use Docker image to run code in local checkout

# Bulid Docker image

$ docker build -t bbc-speech-segmenter .

# Spin up a Docker container in an interactive mode

$ docker run -it -v `pwd`:/wrk bbc-speech-segmenter /bin/bash

# Inside a Docker container

$ cd /wrk/

# Run test

$ ./test.sh
All checks passed

Training and evaluation

X-vector utility

xvector_utils.py can be used to train and evaluate x-vector classifier, as well as o extract and visualize x-vectors. For more detailed information, see XVECTOR_UTILS.md.

The documentation also gives details on file formats such as ARK, SCP or STM, which are required to use this tool.

Run x-vector VAD training

Two files are required for x-vector-vad training:

  • Reference STM file
  • X-vectors ARK file

For example, from inside the Docker container:

$ cd /wrk/recipe

$ python3 local/xvector_utils.py train \
  data/bbc-vad-train/reference.stm     \
  data/bbc-vad-train/xvectors.ark      \
  new_model.pkl

The model will be saved as new_model.pkl.

Run x-vector VAD evaluation

Three files are needed in order to run VAD evaluation:

  • Reference STM file
  • X-vectors ARK file
  • x-vector-vad classifier model

For example, from inside the Docker container:

$ cd /wrk/recipe

$ python3 local/xvector_utils.py evaluate \
  data/bbc-vad-eval/reference.stm        \
  data/bbc-vad-eval/xvectors.ark         \
  model/xvector-classifier.pkl

WebRTC baseline

The code for the baseline WebRTC system referenced in the paper is available in the directory recipe/baselines/denoising_DIHARD18_webrtc.

Request access to bbc-vad-train

Due to size restriction, only bbc-vad-eval is included in the repository. If you'd like access to bbc-vad-train, please contact Matt Haynes.
