Nowadays spoofing detection is one of the priority research areas in the field of automatic speaker verification. The success of Automatic Speaker Verification Spoofing and Countermeasures (ASVspoof) Challenge 2015 confirmed the impressive perspective in detection of unforeseen spoofing trials based on speech synthesis and voice conversion techniques. However, there is a small number of researches addressed to replay spoofing attacks which are more likely to be used by non-professional impersonators. This paper describes the Speech Technology Center (STC) anti-spoofing system submitted for ASVspoof 2017 which is focused on replay attacks detection. Here we investigate the efficiency of a deep learning approach for solution of the mentioned-above task. Experimental results obtained on the Challenge corpora demonstrate that the selected approach outperforms current state-of-the-art baseline systems in terms of spoofing detection quality. Our primary system produced an EER of 6.73% on the evaluation part of the corpora which is 72% relative improvement over the ASVspoof 2017 baseline system.

Abstract. Deep learning approaches are still not very common in the speaker verification field. We investigate the possibility of using deep residual convolutional neural network with spectrograms as an input features in the text-dependent speaker verification task. Despite the fact that we were not able to surpass the baseline system in quality, we achieved a quite good results for such a new approach getting an 5.23% ERR on the RSR2015 evaluation part. Fusion of the baseline and proposed systems outperformed the best individual system by 18% relatively.

This paper presents the Speech Technology Center (STC) replay attack detection systems proposed for Automatic Speaker Verification Spoofing and Countermeasures Challenge 2017. In this study we focused on comparison of different spoofing detection approaches. These were GMM based methods, high level features extraction with simple classifier and deep learning frameworks. Experiments performed on the development and evaluation parts of the challenge dataset demonstrated stable efficiency of deep learning approaches in case of changing acoustic conditions. At the same time SVM classifier with high level features provided a substantial input in the efficiency of the resulting STC systems according to the fusion systems results.
