arXiv:2606.24066v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Speaker recognition has advanced rapidly with large-scale training datasets, yet Vietnamese remains under-resourced, with existing corpora limited in scale and acoustic diversity. Most large-scale datasets rely on facial cues to link speech with speaker identities, restricting data collection to recordings where speakers appear on camera. We propose a face-independent dataset construction pipeline and introduce VieSpeaker, a large-scale Vietnamese speaker recognition dataset. Our approach leverages textual metadata and large language model reas
The rapid advancement of large language models and the increasing demand for culturally diverse AI solutions have created an urgent need for robust, language-specific datasets that are not dependent on visual cues.
This development addresses a critical scarcity in Vietnamese AI resources, potentially fostering the independent growth of AI capabilities within the country and reducing reliance on global technology stacks.
The availability of a large-scale, face-independent Vietnamese speaker recognition dataset, VieSpeaker, will enable more accurate and diverse AI applications for the Vietnamese language.
