Model overview

The speaker-diarization-3.0 model is an open-source pipeline for speaker diarization, trained by Sverin Baroudi using the pyannote.audio library version 3.0.0. It takes in mono audio sampled at 16kHz and outputs speaker diarization as an Annotation instance, which can be used to identify who is speaking when in the audio. The pipeline was trained on a combination of several popular speech datasets, including AISHELL, AliMeeting, AMI, AVA-AVD, DIHARD, Ego4D, MSDWild, REPERE, and VoxConverse.

The model is similar to the speaker-diarization model, which uses an earlier version of the pyannote.audio library. Both models aim to perform the task of speaker diarization, identifying who is speaking when in an audio recording.

Model inputs and outputs

Inputs

  • Mono audio sampled at 16kHz

Outputs

  • An Annotation instance containing the speaker diarization information, which can be used to identify when each speaker is talking.

Capabilities

The speaker-diarization-3.0 model can effectively identify speakers and when they are talking in a given audio recording. It can handle stereo or multi-channel audio by automatically downmixing to mono, and can also resample audio files to 16kHz if needed. The model achieves strong performance, with a diarization error rate (DER) of around 14% on the AISHELL-4 dataset.

What can I use it for?

The speaker-diarization-3.0 model can be useful for a variety of applications that require identifying speakers in audio, such as:

  • Transcription and captioning for meetings or interviews
  • Speaker tracking in security or surveillance applications
  • Audience analysis for podcasts or other audio content
  • Improving speech recognition systems by leveraging speaker information

The maintainers of the model also offer consulting services for organizations looking to use this pipeline in production.

Things to try

One interesting aspect of the speaker-diarization-3.0 model is its ability to process audio on GPU, which can significantly improve the inference speed. The model achieves a real-time factor of around 2.5% when running on a single Nvidia Tesla V100 SXM2 GPU, meaning it can process a one-hour conversation in about 1.5 minutes.

Developers can also experiment with running the model directly from memory, which may provide further performance improvements. The pipeline also offers hooks to monitor the progress of the diarization process, which can be useful for debugging and understanding the model's behavior.

The speaker-diarization-3.1 model is a pipeline developed by the pyannote team that performs speaker diarization on audio data. It is an updated version of the speaker-diarization-3.0 model, removing the problematic use of onnxruntime and running the speaker segmentation and embedding entirely in PyTorch. This should ease deployment and potentially speed up inference. The model takes in mono audio sampled at 16kHz and outputs speaker diarization as an Annotation instance. It can handle stereo or multi-channel audio by automatically downmixing to mono, and it can resample audio files to 16kHz upon loading. Compared to the previous speaker-diarization-3.0 model, this updated version should provide a smoother and more efficient experience for users integrating the model into their applications. Model inputs and outputs Inputs Mono audio sampled at 16kHz**: The pipeline accepts a single-channel audio file sampled at 16kHz. It can automatically handle stereo or multi-channel audio by downmixing to mono. Outputs Speaker diarization**: The pipeline outputs a pyannote.core.Annotation instance containing the speaker diarization for the input audio. Capabilities The speaker-diarization-3.1 model is capable of accurately segmenting and labeling different speakers within an audio recording. It can handle challenging scenarios like overlapping speech and varying numbers of speakers. The model has been benchmarked on a wide range of datasets, including AISHELL-4, AliMeeting, AMI, AVA-AVD, DIHARD 3, MSDWild, REPERE, and VoxConverse, demonstrating robust performance across diverse audio scenarios. What can I use it for? The speaker-diarization-3.1 model can be valuable for a variety of audio-based applications that require identifying and separating different speakers. Some potential use cases include: Meeting transcription and analysis**: Automatically segmenting and labeling speakers in audio recordings of meetings, conferences, or interviews to facilitate post-processing and analysis. Audio forensics and investigation**: Separating and identifying speakers in audio evidence to aid in investigations and legal proceedings. Podcast and audio content production**: Streamlining the editing and post-production process for podcasts, audio books, and other multimedia content by automating speaker segmentation. Conversational AI and voice assistants**: Improving the ability of voice-based systems to track and respond to multiple speakers in real-time conversations. Things to try One interesting aspect of the speaker-diarization-3.1 model is its ability to control the number of speakers expected in the audio. By using the num_speakers, min_speakers, and max_speakers options, you can fine-tune the model's behavior to better suit your specific use case. For example, if you know the audio you're processing will have a fixed number of speakers, you can set num_speakers to that value to potentially improve the model's accuracy. Additionally, the model provides hooks for monitoring the progress of the pipeline, which can be useful for long-running or batch processing tasks. By using the ProgressHook, you can gain visibility into the model's performance and troubleshoot any issues that may arise.

The speaker-diarization model is an open-source pipeline created by pyannote, a company that provides AI consulting services. The model is used for speaker diarization, which is the process of partitioning an audio recording into homogeneous segments according to the speaker identity. This is useful for applications like meeting transcription, where it's important to know which speaker said what. The model relies on the pyannote.audio library, which provides a set of neural network-based building blocks for speaker diarization. The pipeline comes pre-trained and can be used off-the-shelf without the need for further fine-tuning. Model inputs and outputs Inputs Audio file**: The audio file to be processed for speaker diarization. Outputs Diarization**: The output of the speaker diarization process, which includes information about the start and end times of each speaker's turn, as well as the speaker labels. The output can be saved in the RTTM (Rich Transcription Time Marked) format. Capabilities The speaker-diarization model is a fully automatic pipeline that doesn't require any manual intervention, such as manual voice activity detection or manual specification of the number of speakers. It is benchmarked on a growing collection of datasets and achieves high accuracy, with low diarization error rates even in the presence of overlapped speech. What can I use it for? The speaker-diarization model can be used in various applications that involve audio processing, such as meeting transcription, audio indexing, and speaker attribution in podcasts or interviews. By automatically separating the audio into speaker turns, the model can greatly simplify the process of transcribing and analyzing audio recordings. Things to try One interesting aspect of the speaker-diarization model is its ability to handle a variable number of speakers. If the number of speakers is known in advance, you can provide this information to the model using the num_speakers option. Alternatively, you can specify a range for the number of speakers using the min_speakers and max_speakers options. Another feature to explore is the model's real-time performance. The pipeline is benchmarked to have a real-time factor of around 2.5%, meaning it can process a one-hour conversation in approximately 1.5 minutes. This makes the model suitable for near-real-time applications, where fast processing is essential.
