Vo-Ve: An Explainable Voice-Vector for Speaker Identity Evaluation

In this paper, we propose Vo-Ve, a novel voice-vector embedding that captures speaker identity. Unlike conventional speaker embeddings, Vo-Ve is explainable, as it contains the probabilities of explicit voice attribute classes. Through extensive analysis, we demonstrate that Vo-Ve not only evaluates speaker similarity competitively with conventional techniques but also provides an interpretable explanation in terms of voice attributes. We strongly believe that Vo-Ve can enhance evaluation schemes across various speech tasks due to its high-level explainability.
