In both cases, personalized acoustic models (AM), i.e. fine-tuned AM with specific speaker data, can be built. A question that naturally arises is whether the dissemination of personalized acoustic models can leak personal information. In this paper, we show that it is possible to retrieve the gender of the speaker, but also his identity, by just exploiting the weight matrix changes of a neural acoustic model locally adapted to this speaker. Incidentally we observe phenomena that may be useful towards explainability of deep neural networks in the context of speech processing. Gender can be identified almost surely using only the first layers and speaker verification performs well when using middle-up layers. Our experimental study on the TED-LIUM 3 dataset with HMM/TDNN models shows an accuracy of 95% for gender detection, and an Equal Error Rate of 9.07% for a speaker verification task by only exploiting the weights from personalized models that could be exchanged instead of user data.Lire moins >
