Abstract
A method, computer program product, and computing system for generating an obscured speech signal from an input speech signal and an obscured transcription from a transcription of the input speech signal. A speaker embedding may be extracted from the input speech signal. A speaker embedding delta may be generated based upon, at least in part, the extracted speaker embedding and a synthetic speaker embedding. A synthetic speech signal may be generated from the obscured speech signal using the synthetic speaker embedding. A residual signal may be generated based upon, at least in part, the obscured speech signal and the speaker embedding delta. A speech processing system may be trained using the obscured transcription, the synthetic speech signal, the speaker embedding delta, and the residual signal.
