Combined learning method and apparatus using deepening neural network based feature enhancement and modified loss function for speaker recognition robust to noisy environments

Abstract

Presented are a combined learning method and device using a transformed loss function and feature enhancement based on a deep neural network for speaker recognition that is robust in a noisy environment. A combined learning method using a transformed loss function and feature enhancement based on a deep neural network, according to one embodiment, can comprise the steps of: learning a feature enhancement model based on a deep neural network; learning a speaker feature vector extraction model based on the deep neural network; connecting an output layer of the feature enhancement model with an input layer of the speaker feature vector extraction model; and considering the connected feature enhancement model and speaker feature vector extraction model as one mode and performing combined learning for additional learning.
