This paper presents the ABC team's submission to the NIST
SRE 2024 evaluation, a collaboration among BUT, Polito, Phonexia,
Omilia, UAM, and CRIM. Our team participated in all evaluation
tracks (audio-only, visual-only, and audio-visual) under both fixed
and open conditions. We developed a variety of frontends, back-
ends, and strategies for calibration and fusion to optimize system
performance.
The fixed and open conditions share some solutions. In the
audio-only systems, we employed ResNet variants and the newly
introduced ReDimNet model as frontends for embedding extraction.
Then, we explored various backends including cosine scoring, Prob-
abilistic Linear Discriminant Analysis, and Pairwise Support Vec-
tor Machine. For the visual-only systems, we adopted the Insight-
face framework, utilized ResNet100 and MagFace pre-trained on the
MS1MV2 dataset. Cosine scoring under various strategies were ap-
plied, with logistic regression used for both calibration and fusion.
Finally, scores from audio-only and visual-only systems were fused
using logistic regression for submission to the audio-visual track.
Building on the fixed condition, the open condition included en-
hancements such as larger ResNet models, additional training data
from the VoxBlink2 dataset, and the pre-trained XLS-R foundation
model
