## 2 Literature Review
### Application of Generative Adversarial Networks in Speech Synthesis and Enhancement  
GANs have shown great potential in speech synthesis and enhancement. [PERSON] et al. explored GAN-based methods for speech enhancement and noise robustness in vocal verification [16]. [PERSON] et al. discussed the use of GANs for data augmentation in speaker recognition. Their approach significantly improves recognition performance by generating new training samples, particularly when data are insufficient [17]. [PERSON] et al. proposedthe speech enhancement generative adversarial network (SEGAN), which reduces noise and enhances speech quality through adversarial training, generating clearer and more natural speech signals [18]. [PERSON] et al. summarized the development and challenges in speech conversion research, exploring various GAN applications and outlining the technical challenges faced in this field [19]. In [PERSON] et al. 's study, an innovative speech conversion method was proposed using a sequence-to-sequence (Seq2 Seq) model with GAN to learn similarity measures, improving the naturalness of generated speech [20]. [PERSON] et al. discussed CNN-based techniques for mono audio source separation, which was particularly useful in speech enhancement tasks as it effectively separated speech from background noise [21]. [PERSON] et al. introduced a GAN-based Tacotron model for intonation transfer, achieving more natural speech synthesis effects by adapting intonation characteristics to different contexts and emotional expressions [22]. [PERSON] et al. proposed a GAN with dual discriminators for speech enhancement, improving the quality and stability of generated speech, particularly in noisy environments [23]. In addition to deep learning and spectral feature extraction, traditional machine learning methods like support vector machines (SVMs) and Gaussian mixture models (GMMs) are still widely applied in speaker recognition. [PERSON] et al. combined SVM and GMM hypervectors for speaker verification, demonstrating improved performance in discriminative recognition [24]. [PERSON] et al. detailed the use of adaptive GMMs in speaker verification, showcasing the model's effectiveness and stability in this field [25]. [PERSON] et al. provided a thorough review of text-independent speaker recognition techniques, serving as a valuable resource for researchers [26]. [PERSON] and [PERSON] summarized recent research advances in speaker recognition, covering topics from feature extraction to hypervector modeling and identifying key challenges [27]. [PERSON] and [PERSON] analyzed various voice activity detection techniques for the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) used in NIST's speaker recognition evaluations, providing experimental data on their performance in noisy environments [28]. [PERSON] et al. examined the role of feature extraction and channel compensation in GMM-based speaker recognition systems, proposing several methods for improving performance [29]. While the reviewed studies demonstrate significant advancements in speaker recognition and speech processing, there are notable limitations. Many of the approaches are heavily reliant on deep learning models, which can require large amounts of computational resources and data for training. For instance, the work by [PERSON] et al. on Deep Speaker Embeddings [1] and [PERSON] et al. on CNN-based speaker verification [2] showcase the effectiveness of DNNs but highlight the issue of data scarcity, which GANs partially address but do not completely resolve. Additionally, [PERSON] et al. 's [3] DNN embedding method significantly boosts performance but raises concerns about the model's robustness in diverse real-world conditions. [PERSON] and [PERSON]'s work on the VoxCeleb2 dataset [4] emphasizes the importance of large datasets, but such resources are not always available, limiting the scalability of these solutions.
