The paper introduces SNAP, a speaker‑nulling framework designed to improve deepfake speech detection. By estimating a speaker subspace and orthogonally projecting out speaker‑dependent components, SNAP isolates synthesis artifacts in the residual features. This reduction of speaker entanglement enables detectors to focus on artifact‑related cues, achieving state‑of‑the‑art performance.

arXiv:2606. 16532v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Audio deepfake detectors often fail to generalize across speakers, as they learn speaker-identity features rather than synthesis artifacts, known as implicit identity leakage.

Large self-supervised speech models provide powerful representations for speaker verification, but full fine-tuning is expensive. Most conventional adapters insert small trainable modules to modify th...
arXiv:2603. 10827v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Speech-aware large language models (LLMs) can accept speech inputs, yet their training objectives largely emphasize linguistic content or specific fields such as emotions or the speaker's gender, leaving it unclear whether they encode speaker identity.
