title: Online End-to-End Neural Diarization with Speaker-Tracing Buffer
abstract: This paper proposes a novel online speaker diarization algorithm based on a fully supervised self-attention mechanism (SA-EEND). Online diarization inherently presents a speaker's permutation problem due to the possibility to assign speaker regions incorrectly across the recording. To circumvent this inconsistency, we proposed a speaker-tracing buffer mechanism that selects several input frames representing the speaker permutation information from previous chunks and stores them in a buffer.
