The 2012 NIST speaker recognition evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In 2012 NIST held the latest in an ongoing series of textindependent speaker recognition evaluations (SRE’s). The 2012 NIST Speaker Recognition Evaluation (SRE12) was the largest and most complex SRE to date, including over 100 million trials. Several aspects of SRE12 were new; most significantly, NIST released in advance of the evaluation target speaker training data from six preexisting corpora, and systems were permitted to utilize joint information from target speakers for speaker modeling and test segment scoring. Results from the evaluation suggest that systems found it easier to reject non-target trials where the test speaker was among the target speakers.

This paper introduces the system fusion of THU-EE for the NIST 2012 Speaker Recognition Evaluation (SRE12). In our approach, mean Z-norm, pseudo post probability T-norm and bi-criterion optimization are used. These methods mainly concern the changes of evaluation rules and limitation of our development data, which are the new problems for SRE12. Through post evaluation of SRE12 core test, the e...
متن کاملThe Role of Score Calibration in Speaker Recognition
The performance of speaker recognition, as measured by NIST in its periodic evaluation programs of speaker detection technology, is affected by the predictive accuracy of system decisions as well as the inherent discriminating power of the underlying algorithms. This paper analyses the score calibration accuracy of a few systems that exhibited good performance in the NIST 2010 speaker recogniti...
متن کاملExploring the impact of advanced front-end processing on NIST speaker recognition microphone tasks
The NIST speaker recognition evaluation (SRE) featured microphone data in the 2005-2010 evaluations. The preprocessing and use of this data has typically been performed with telephone bandwidth and quantization. Although this approach is viable, it ignores the richer properties of the microphone data— multiple channels, high-rate sampling, linear encoding, ambient noise properties, etc. In this...
متن کاملQuality measures based calibration with duration and noise dependency for speaker recognition
This paper studies the effect of short utterances and noise on the performance of automatic speaker recognition. We focus on calibration aspects, and propose a calibration strategy that uses quality measures to model the calibration parameters. We carry out the proposed calibration by using simple Quality Measure Functions (QMFs) of duration and measured signal-to-noise-ratio from speech segmen...
