Original Abstract

In this paper, besides presenting the setup, datasets and performancemeasures of the SWS 2013 evaluation, we have analyzedthe results obtained by the submitted systems and presented a postevaluationstudy where the 10 best-performing systems were incrementallyfused (at the score level), obtaining a 30%relative improvementover the best-performing individual system, proving the benefitsof combining independent or complementary sources of informationor different modeling approaches.Given the increasing interest for this task in the community, weare already planning a new edition of the SWS evaluation, renamedQUESST, i.e. Query by Example Spoken Search Task, within theMediaeval 2014 benchmark campaign. This year, we will continuetackling the problem of low-resource settings and will introduce acomponent of variability between queries and references, allowingfor a limited amount of acoustic insertions to still be consideredmatches.
