Self-Supervised Speaker Verification Using Dynamic Loss-Gate and Label Correction
share
For self-supervised speaker verification, the quality of pseudo labels decides the upper bound of the system due to the massive unreliable labels. In this work, we propose dynamic loss-gate and label correction (DLG-LC) to alleviate the performance degradation caused by unreliable estimated labels. In DLG, we adopt Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) to dynamically model the loss distribution and use the estimated GMM to distinguish the reliable and unreliable labels automatically. Besides, to better utilize the unreliable data instead of dropping them directly, we correct the unreliable label with model predictions. Moreover, we apply the negative-pairs-free DINO framework in our experiments for further improvement. Compared to the best-known speaker verification system with self-supervised learning, our proposed DLG-LC converges faster and achieves 11.45 Vox-O, Vox-E and Vox-H trials of Voxceleb1 evaluation dataset.
