Research in speaker recognition has recently seen significant progress due to the application of neural network models and the availability of new large-scale datasets. There has been a plethora of work in search for more powerful architectures or loss functions suitable for the task, but these works do not consider what information is learnt by the models, apart from being able to predict the given labels. In this work, we introduce an environment adversarial training framework in which the network can effectively learn speaker-discriminative and environment-invariant embeddings without explicit domain shift during training. We achieve this by utilising the previously unused `video information in the VoxCeleb dataset. The environment adversarial training allows the network to generalise better to unseen conditions. The method is evaluated on both speaker identification and verification tasks using the VoxCeleb dataset, on which we demonstrate significant performance improvements over baselines.

The VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge 2019 aimed to assess how well current speaker recognition technology is able to identify speakers in unconstrained or `in the wild data. It consisted of: (i) a publicly available speaker recognition dataset from YouTube videos together with ground truth annotation and standardised evaluation software; and (ii) a public challenge and workshop held at Interspeech 2019 in Graz, Austria. This paper outlines the challenge and provides its baselines, results and discussions.
We held the second installment of the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge in conjunction with Interspeech 2020. The goal of this challenge was to assess how well current speaker recognition technology is able to diarise and recognize speakers in unconstrained or `in the wild data. It consisted of: (i) a publicly available speaker recognition and diarisation dataset from YouTube videos together with ground truth annotation and standardised evaluation software; and (ii) a virtual public challenge and workshop held at Interspeech 2020. This paper outlines the challenge, and describes the baselines, methods used, and results. We conclude with a discussion of the progress over the first installment of the challenge.
In this report, we discribe the submission of Tongji University undergraduate team to the CLOSE track of the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge (VoxSRC) 2020 at Interspeech 2020. We applied the RSBU-CW module to the ResNet34 framework to improve the denoising ability of the network and better complete the speaker verification task in a complex environment.We trained two variants of ResNet,used score fusion and data-augmentation methods to improve the performance of the model. Our fusion of two selected systems for the CLOSE track achieves 0.2973 DCF and 4.9700% EER on the challenge evaluation set.
In this report, we describe our submission to the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge (VoxSRC) 2020. Two approaches are adopted. One is to apply query expansion on speaker verification, which shows significant progress compared to baseline in the study. Another is to use Kaldi extract x-vector and to combine its Probabilistic Linear Discriminant Analysis (PLDA) score with ResNet score.
This report describes the systems submitted to the first and second tracks of the VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge (VoxSRC) 2020, which ranked second in both tracks. Three key points of the system pipeline are explored: (1) investigating multiple CNN architectures including ResNet, Res2Net and dual path network (DPN) to extract the x-vectors, (2) using a composite angular margin softmax loss to train the speaker models, and (3) applying score normalization and system fusion to boost the performance. Measured on the VoxSRC-20 Eval set, the best submitted systems achieve an EER of $3.808%$ and a MinDCF of $0.1958$ in the close-condition track 1, and an EER of $3.798%$ and a MinDCF of $0.1942$ in the open-condition track 2, respectively.
