2005 Speaker Recognition Evaluation

May 27, 2005
ICSI's speaker recognition group, a subset of the Speech Group, participated in the 2005 speaker recognition evaluation conducted by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). These evaluations are an important contribution to the calibration of technical capabilities and are of interest to researchers working on the general problem of text-independent speaker recognition worldwide.
ICSI's submitted system was one of the top performers in the core test condition. The effort was led by staff scientist Nikki Mirghafori and showcased work of students Kofi Boakye, Dan Gillick, Andy Hatch, and Steve Stafford, with important contributions from SRI's Speaker Recognition team.
