VoxSRC 2019: The first VoxCeleb Speaker Recognition Challenge

ABSTRACT The V oxCeleb 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 Y ouTube 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. Index T erms-- speaker verification, unconstrained conditions 1.
