contents Phase-based features related to vocal source characteristics can be incorporated into magnitude-based speaker recognition systems to improve the system performance. However, traditional feature-level fusion methods typically ignore the unique contributions of speaker semantics in the magnitude and phase domains. To address this issue, this paper proposed a feature-level fusion framework using the co-attention mechanism for speaker recognition. The framework consists of two separate sub-networks for the magnitude and phase domains respectively. Then, the intermediate high-level outputs of both domains are fused by the co-attention mechanism before a pooling layer. A correlation matrix from the co-attention module is supposed to re-assign the weights for dynamically scaling contributions in the magnitude and phase domains according to different pronunciations. Experiments on VoxCeleb showed that the proposed feature-level fusion strategy using the co-attention mechanism gave the Top-1 accuracy of 97.20%, outperforming the state-of-the-art system with 0.82% absolutely, and obtained EER reduction of 0.45% compared to single feature system using FBank.
