The objective of this paper is speaker recognition under noisy and
unconstrained conditions.
We make two key contributions. First, we introduce a very large-scale
audio-visual speaker recognition dataset collected from open-source media.
Using a fully automated pipeline, we curate VoxCeleb2 which contains over a
million utterances from over 6,000 speakers. This is several times larger than
any publicly available speaker recognition dataset.
Second, we develop and compare Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) models and
training strategies that can effectively recognise identities from voice under
various conditions. The models trained on the VoxCeleb2 dataset surpass the
performance of previous works on a benchmark dataset by a significant margin.Comment: To appear in Interspeech 2018. The audio-visual dataset can be
downloaded from http://www.robots.ox.ac.uk/~vgg/data/voxceleb2 .
