Speaker verification systems are usually evaluated by a weighted average of its false acceptance (FA) rate and false rejection (FR) rate. The weights are known as the operating point (OP) and depend on the applications. Recent researches suggest that, for the purpose of score calibration of speaker verification systems, it is beneficial to let discriminative training emphasize on the operating points of interest, i.e., use application-specific loss functions. In score calibration, a transformation is applied to the scores in order to make them better represent likelihood
ratios. The same application-specific training objective can be used in discriminative training of all parameters of a speaker verification system. In this study, we apply application-specificloss functions in discriminative PLDA training. We observe an improvement in the minimun detection cost function (minDCF) for the male trials of the NIST SRE10 telephone for the targeted operating point compared to the baseline, discriminative PLDA training with logistic regression loss.
