Auto-Tuning Spectral Clustering for Speaker Diarization Using Normalized Maximum Eigengap

In this study, we propose a new spectral clustering framework that can auto-tune the parameters of the clustering algorithm in the context of speaker diarization. The proposed framework uses normalized maximum eigengap (NME) values to estimate the number of clusters and the parameters for the threshold of the elements of each row in an affinity matrix during spectral clustering, without the use of...
