Extrapolating false alarm rates in automatic speaker verification

Automatic speaker verification (ASV) vendors and corpus In this study we improve upon the generative model presented providers would both benefit from tools to reliably extrapolate in [3]. Despite demonstrating expected overall trends, performance metrics for large speaker populations without collecting the predicted false alarm rates were substantially overestimated, new speakers. We address false alarm rate extrapolation particularly at high ASV thresholds (proxies of high-security under a worst-case model whereby an adversary identifies the applications). To tackle this shortcoming, we propose a discriminative closest impostor for a given target speaker from a large population.
