    The DISPLACE Challenge 2023 - DIarization of SPeaker and LAnguage in Conversational Environments
    (International Speech Communication Association, 2023) Baghel, S.; Ramoji, S.; Sidharth; Ranjana, H.; Singh, P.; Jain, S.; Chowdhuri, P.R.; Kulkarni, K.; Padhi, S.; Vijayasenan, D.; Ganapathy, S.
    In multilingual societies, social conversations often involve code-mixed speech. The current speech technology may not be well equipped to extract information from multi-lingual multispeaker conversations. The DISPLACE challenge entails a first-of-kind task to benchmark speaker and language diarization on the same data, as the data contains multi-speaker conversations in multilingual code-mixed speech. The challenge attempts to highlight outstanding issues in speaker diarization (SD) in multilingual settings with code-mixing. Further, language diarization (LD) in multi-speaker settings also introduces new challenges, where the system has to disambiguate speaker switches with code switches. For this challenge, a natural multilingual, multi-speaker conversational dataset is distributed for development and evaluation purposes. The systems are evaluated on single-channel far-field recordings. We also release a baseline system and report the highlights of the system submissions. © 2023 International Speech Communication Association. All rights reserved.
