The FFSVC 2020 Evaluation Plan
This challenge addresses the problem of speaker verification in real-world, noisy far-field scenarios for the speech technology community, though it is incremental as it builds on existing evaluation frameworks.
The FFSVC 2020 challenge aimed to advance speaker verification research by focusing on far-field, noisy conditions using distributed microphone arrays, resulting in the creation of an open, large-scale database for benchmarking and promoting new technologies.
The Far-Field Speaker Verification Challenge 2020 (FFSVC20) is designed to boost the speaker verification research with special focus on far-field distributed microphone arrays under noisy conditions in real scenarios. The objectives of this challenge are to: 1) benchmark the current speech verification technology under this challenging condition, 2) promote the development of new ideas and technologies in speaker verification, 3) provide an open, free, and large scale speech database to the community that exhibits the far-field characteristics in real scenes.
