A New Transformer-Based Approach for Audio-Based Kinship Verification and a New Uncontrolled Mandarin Kinship Speech Dataset

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Sep 12, 2026 · UTC

Kinship verification is a task involving determining whether two individuals share a first-order kin relation. To tackle this task, we propose CONVTRAP-TN, a new architecture for audio-based kinship verification, and conduct an ablation study on the proposed model. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to apply the successful transformer architecture to the task of audio-based kinship verification. Furthermore, we also collect a custom speech dataset, ARKIN, which accurately reflects everyday recording conditions. We do this because only a few speech datasets with kinship labels curre
