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.

The study examines how the realism of synthetic room impulse response (RIR) datasets influences the training of DeepFilterNet3 for single‑channel speech enhancement. By comparing a DNS4 image‑source‑method RIR set with a higher‑fidelity hybrid wave‑based and geometrical acoustics RIR set, the authors find that the more realistic dataset consistently improves objective speech enhancement metrics and significantly reduces ASR word error rates on unseen measured RIRs. The results suggest that overall realism in synthetic acoustic training data enhances DeepFilterNet3’s generalization to new environments.
