Objective Control for TAlker VErification

Deliverables

Suitability of existing voice biometric engines

This deliverable outlines the current state of the main areas of research relevant to design phase and development. It consists of an extended technical report that reviews in particular the leading-edge state-of-the-art voice biometric engines (both commercial and non-commercial), while considering their pros and cons from the viewpoint of OCTAVE project goals. These include robustness to background noise and channel variation, resistance against spoofing attacks, and recognition accuracy on short utterances.

OCTAVE Report on communication actions and participation in events Y2

This report provides a list of journals, publications, bulletins, conferences, events and workshops where OCTAVE results will have been communicated during the second year of the project. It also includes a description of the dissemination material created to promote the project in the different attended events.

Changes to platform for Privacy compliance

This deliverable demonstrates how biometric data can be anonymized in an authentication environment. The sample platform uses multifactor authentication, where a speaker verification engine (SV) provides a strong identity factor when required. A well-supported federation protocol is used to insulate the SV both physically and logically from other identity-related data, like emails and bank accounts. The SV communicates with the authentication platform by using a token proxy, which represents the end user's identity. The ultimate goal is to reduce exposure to a single point of failure, if data leakages do happen.

Baseline voice biometric systems and their vulnerability to spoofing

This is the publishable version of D3. This deliverable is a report setting out the baseline voice biometric technologies considered for the project and analyzing their vulnerabilities to spoofing. The types of spoofing attacks presented in the report are primarily in the context of the operational modes of speaker verification which are adopted for the considered application areas.

OCTAVE report on communication actions and participation in events Y1

This report provides a list of journals, publications, bulletins, conferences, events and workshops where OCTAVE results have been communicated during the first year of the project. It also includes a description of the dissemination material created to promote the project in the different attended events.

Contribution to standards

This report will be an organised and commented collection of all contributions that the Project will have made to standard bodies, at national, European and global level. The contributions themselves will be part of the Deliverable.

Survey of the safety and security standards, procedures and technologies for the collection, transmission, storage and processing of personal data

This document is a survey of the safety and security standards, procedures and technologies for the collection, transmission, storage and processing of personal data. Contributing to WP2 as well as to the general privacy-by-design approach in the project, this document will be the key for OCTAVE to adopt standard, secure formats for the exchange of biometric data and authentication requests/responses, such as the recently defined OpenID Connect standard.

Corpora definition

This Deliverable describes the OCTAVE corpora definition and collection method on the basis of preliminary requirements set for trial design. It will define the various corpora needed and, if necessary, an extra integrative corpus to be implemented. Among the requirements we will also include the recommendations issued from the Ethics Committee for collection of ad hoc corpora. The expected result is a database of appropriate size, able to provide the best representation of data and boundary conditions typically encountered in real scenarios involving variations of spoken language and communication channels.

OCTAVE Website

This deliverable is twofold: a report on the design of the OCTAVE website and the initial website itself (home page and some basic pages, as of indicated delivery month). The website is of course a living product, as it will be constantly informing the target audiences about the existence of the OCTAVE project and the potential benefits for companies and experts operating in the expected fields. The website will make available social-network targeted information on the themes of access control and biometric data. The website contents will address the general public (by presenting the advantages of voice biometrics for easy access to information services and critical infrastructures) and all stakeholders (e.g., enterprises requiring access control, smart service developers, educators, researchers, etc.) by providing them with outputs that are publishable according to OCTAVE classification policies.
