Abstract
In this paper, we introduce a new far-field speaker recognition benchmark called RoboVox. RoboVox is a French corpus recorded by a mobile robot. The files are recorded from different distances under severe acoustical conditions with the presence of several types of noise and reverberation. In addition to noise and reverberation, the robot’s internal noise acts as an extra additive noise. RoboVox can be used for both single-channel and multi-channel speaker recognition. In the evaluation protocols, we are considering both cases. The obtained results demonstrate a significant decline in performance in far-filed speaker recognition and urge the community to further research in this domain
