UnVC: Protecting Your Voiceprint by Generative Adversarial Speech

UnVC is a defense system designed to prevent voice cloning (creating fake copies of someone's voice) by modifying a person's original speech in a way that protects it. The system uses a technique called WaveGlow (a generative model that creates speech patterns) combined with adversarial approaches (methods that add protective distortions) to create modified speech samples that sound natural but block voice cloning attempts, even when audio is shared on social media or re-recorded.
