Popis: We present privacy-sensitive methods for (1) automatically finding multi-person conversations in spontaneous, situated speech data and (2) segmenting those conversations into speaker turns. The methods protect privacy through a feature set that is rich enough to capture conversational styles and dynamics, but not sufficient for reconstructing intelligible speech. Experimental results show that the conversation finding method outperforms earlier approaches and that the speaker segmentation method is a significant improvement to the only other known privacy-sensitive method for speaker segmentation.
