Kezek model splits two-person conversations into separate audio tracks

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

Researchers have developed Kezek, a novel model designed to separate mono audio recordings of two-person conversations into individual speaker tracks. This model aims to preserve the original length and timing, ensuring that overlaps and short replies remain with the original speaker. Kezek reportedly outperforms existing pipelines like pyannote and DialogueSidon in retaining short replies and reducing channel swaps, while also being significantly faster. AI

IMPACT This model could improve the quality and usability of dialogue data for training AI systems.

    Kezek: Splitting Mono Two-Person Conversations into Per-Speaker Tracks for Full-Duplex Dialogue Data

    arXiv:2611.16933v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Full-duplex spoken dialogue models learn turn-taking, overlaps and backchannels from conversations recorded with one channel per speaker, but most available conversational audio is a single mono mix. We present Kezek, a model that…
