Annotation
This article is about the analysis and description of ABC Submission to NIST SRE 2016.We have presented various sytems of the ABC team that are designed to cope with dataset mismatch and non-English data. We have presented and compared several fusion and calibration strategies and we have uncovered and discussed problems brought by SRE16.
Abstract
We present a condensed description and analysis of the joint submission for NIST SRE 2016, by Agnitio, BUT and CRIM (ABC). We concentrate on challenges that arose during development and we analyze the results obtained on the evaluation data and on our development sets. We show that testing on mismatched, non-English and short duration data introduced in NIST SRE 2016 is a difficult problem for current state-of-theart systems. Testing on this data brought back the issue of score normalization and it also revealed that the bottleneck features (BN), which are superior when used for telephone English, are lacking in performance against the standard acoustic features like Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs). We offer ABCs insights, findings and suggestions for building a robust system suitable for mismatched, non-English and relatively noisy data such as those in NIST SRE 2016.
