Abstract

Speaker verification systems have recently been widely used in a widerange of information systems. This method of identity verification is extremely convenient,since only a microphone, which is available by default in most electronic devices, isneeded to register speech samples. However, the performance of such systems issignificantly reduced when the speech sample was recorded in noisy environment. In thispaper, a new speech enhancement model based on recurrent neural networks was proposed,which was tested for the problem of speaker verification. On the DNS Challenge 2020 dataset, the developed approach demonstrated the best quality of noise removal in comparisonwith alternative approaches. It made it possible to significantly reduce the level of errors inthe model system for verifying speakers on the VoxCeleb1 test data set.
