Title:SynVox2: Towards a privacy-friendly VoxCeleb2 dataset
View PDFAbstract:The success of deep learning in speaker recognition relies heavily on the use of large datasets. However, the data-hungry nature of deep learning methods has already being questioned on account the ethical, privacy, and legal concerns that arise when using large-scale datasets of natural speech collected from real human speakers. For example, the widely-used VoxCeleb2 dataset for speaker recognition is no longer accessible from the official website. To mitigate these concerns, this work presents an initiative to generate a privacy-friendly synthetic VoxCeleb2 dataset that ensures the quality of the generated speech in terms of privacy, utility, and fairness. We also discuss the challenges of using synthetic data for the downstream task of speaker verification.
