how to separate an audio file based on different speakers

I have a conversation recorded of 2 different people, the conversation contains a gap before every sentence or person to make it easier for the algorithm recorgnise the voice. I want to try to split an audio file into two, each contains only one speaker's speech. Just wondering how would I go about this task?

Hi Andrei,
Speaker diarization is one way to address it. Check out this example:

hello
this is ùy suggestion : assuming we have a wav file, I take the absolute of the signal and smooth it to get a kind of enveloppe , then I look for time instants when this enveloppe will cross a gievn threshold; this give me time values for start and stop times for each person. Now remains to be done a code to select start and stop moments that are distant by a difference equal or superior to your gap value

This is called Signal separation, blind source separation, and other terms. There are several ways to do it, one being independent component analysis, used in the rica function and related functions.
