AegisVox: Factorized Privacy and Clinical Preservation for Long-Form Speech

We present AegisVox, a factorized framework that assigns consistent surrogate voices and edits identifier-bearing turns using document-consistent replacements.

Key points

  • Clinical speech reveals identity through both spoken identifiers and voice, yet its pauses, delivery, and speaker roles can also carry useful clinical evidence.
  • Protecting that speech therefore requires more than preserving its words.
  • Across 390 public simulated or non-patient conversations totaling 63.6 hours, a matched comparison of two speech renderers separates replacement realization from retained identifiers, speaker linkage, and clinical preservation.
  • Text-to-speech rendering realizes 535/601 planned replacements versus 453/601 for the codec-based speech editor.
