PB-LRDWWS System for the SLT 2024 Low-Resource Dysarthria Wake-Up Word Spotting Challenge
<|reference_start|>PB-LRDWWS System for the SLT 2024 Low-Resource Dysarthria Wake-Up Word Spotting Challenge: For the SLT 2024 Low-Resource Dysarthria Wake-Up Word Spotting (LRDWWS) Challenge, we introduce the PB-LRDWWS system. This system combines a dysarthric speech content feature extractor for prototype construction with a prototype-based classification method. The feature extractor is a fine-tuned HuBERT model obtained through a three-stage fine-tuning process using cross-entropy loss. This fine-tuned HuBERT extracts features from the target dysarthric speaker's enrollment speech to build prototypes. Classification is achieved by calculating the cosine similarity between the HuBERT features of the target dysarthric speaker's evaluation speech and prototypes. Despite its simplicity, our method demonstrates effectiveness through experimental results. Our system achieves second place in the final Test-B of the LRDWWS Challenge.<|reference_end|>
