In speaker recognition, where speech segments are mapped to embeddings on the unit hypersphere, two scoring backends are commonly used, namely cosine scoring or PLDA.

For perfect calibration, the Bayes error-rate is upper bounded by min(EER, P, 1-P), where EER is the equal-error-rate and P, 1-P are the prior probabilities of the competing hypotheses.

A standard recipe for spoken language recognition is to apply a Gaussian back-end to i-vectors.

We propose a theoretical framework for thinking about score normalization, which confirms that normalization is not needed under (admittedly fragile) ideal conditions.

We introduce a Bayesian solution for the problem in forensic speaker recognition, where there may be very little background material for estimating score calibration parameters.

In recent work on both generative and discriminative score to log-likelihood-ratio calibration, it was shown that linear transforms give good accuracy only for a limited range of operating points.
