This paper introduces a Gender-Aware Siamese-Triplet Network-Deep Neural Network (ST-DNN) architecture to address these challenges. The Gender-Aware Network utilizes Convolutional 2D layers with ReLU activation for initial feature extraction, followed by multi-fusion dense skip connections and batch normalization to integrate features across different depths, enhancing discrimination between male and female speakers. A bottleneck layer compresses feature maps to capture gender-related characteristics effectively. For enhanced speaker verification, separate male and female ST-DNN models are used, each incorporating Individual, Siamese, and Triplet Networks. The Individual Network extracts unique utterance characteristics, the Siamese Network compares speech sample pairs for speaker identity, and the Triplet Network ensures closely grouped embeddings of samples from the same speaker, facilitating precise verification.
