Build a SRE Challenge System: Lessons from VoxSRC 2022 and CNSRC 2022 (2211.00815v2)

Abstract: Many speaker recognition challenges have been held to assess the speaker verification system in the wild and probe the performance limit. Voxceleb Speaker Recognition Challenge (VoxSRC), based on the voxceleb, is the most popular. Besides, another challenge called CN-Celeb Speaker Recognition Challenge (CNSRC) is also held this year, which is based on the Chinese celebrity multi-genre dataset CN-Celeb. This year, our team participated in both speaker verification closed tracks in CNSRC 2022 and VoxSRC 2022, and achieved the 1st place and 3rd place respectively. In most system reports, the authors usually only provide a description of their systems but lack an effective analysis of their methods. In this paper, we will outline how to build a strong speaker verification challenge system and give a detailed analysis of each method compared with some other popular technical means.
