- What it is
- A method for finding whether diarization errors come from voice acoustics or from conversation structure, by remixing recordings in a factorial design. Its introduction summarizes how conversation structure affects diarization accuracy.
- How much weight it carries
- A preprint with a careful method. The statement quoted is background that the authors attribute to earlier work, so treat it as their summary of the literature, not a new measurement.
Facts taken from this source
- Diarization systems are reported to be more accurate in balanced conversations with long turns and little turn overlap.
