ASVspoof 2021: Automatic Speaker Verification Spoofing and Countermeasures Challenge Evaluation Plan
This addresses the problem of speech spoofing attacks for the speaker verification community, but it is incremental as part of a series of bi-annual challenges.
The paper describes the ASVspoof 2021 challenge, which aims to develop countermeasures for detecting spoofed or deepfake speech in automatic speaker verification systems, providing technical details on data, metrics, and evaluation procedures.
The automatic speaker verification spoofing and countermeasures (ASVspoof) challenge series is a community-led initiative which aims to promote the consideration of spoofing and the development of countermeasures. ASVspoof 2021 is the 4th in a series of bi-annual, competitive challenges where the goal is to develop countermeasures capable of discriminating between bona fide and spoofed or deepfake speech. This document provides a technical description of the ASVspoof 2021 challenge, including details of training, development and evaluation data, metrics, baselines, evaluation rules, submission procedures and the schedule.
