title: Discriminative Neural Clustering for Speaker Diarisation
abstract: In this paper, we propose Discriminative Neural Clustering (DNC) that formulates data clustering with a maximum number of clusters as a supervised sequence-to-sequence learning problem. Compared to traditional unsupervised clustering algorithms, DNC learns clustering patterns from training data without requiring an explicit definition of a similarity measure. An implementation of DNC based on the Transformer architecture is shown to be effective on a speaker diarisation task using the challengin
