This paper introduces the Multi-scale Feature Aggregation Conformer (MFA-Conformer) structure for audio anti-spoofing countermeasure (CM). MFA-Conformer combines a convolutional neural networkbased on the Transformer, allowing it to aggregate global andlocal information. This may benefit the anti-spoofing CM system to capture the synthetic artifacts hidden both locally and globally. In addition, given the excellent performance of MFA Conformer on automatic speech recognition (ASR) and automatic speaker verification (ASV) tasks, we present a transfer learning method that utilizes pretrained Conformer models on ASR or ASV tasks to enhance the robustness of CM systems. The proposed method is evaluated on both Chinese and Englishs poofing detection databases. On the FAD clean set, the MFA-Conformer model pretrained on the ASR task achieves an EER of 0.038%, which dramatically outperforms the baseline. Moreover, experimental results demonstrate that proposed transfer learning method on Conformer is effective on pure speech segments after voice activity detection processing.
