Manipulating speech audio recordings through splicing is a task within everyone's reach. Indeed, it is very easy to collect through social media multiple audio recordings from well-known public figures (e.g., actors, politicians, etc.). These can be cut into smaller excerpts that can be concatenated in order to generate new audio content. As a fake speech from a famous person can be used for fake news spreading and negatively impact on the society, the ability of detecting whether a speech recording has been manipulated is a task of great interest in the forensics community. In this work, we focus on speech audio splicing detection and localization. We leverage the idea that distinct recordings may be acquired in different environments, which are typically characterized by distinctive reverberation cues. Exploiting this property, our method estimates inconsistencies in the reverberation time throughout a speech recording. If reverberation inconsistencies are detected, the audio track is tagged as manipulated and the splicing point time instant is estimated.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
