| Abstract | In this paper, we propose a Lasso based framework to generate the sparse total variability supervectors (s-vectors). Rather than the factor analysis framework, which uses a low dimensional Eigenvoice subspace to represent the mean supervector, the proposed Lasso approach utilizes the $l^{1}$ norm regularized least square estimation to project the mean supervector on a pre-defined dictionary. The number of samples in this dictionary is appreciably larger than the typical Eigenvoice rank but the $l^{1}$ norm of the Lasso solution vector is constrained. Only a small number of samples in the dictionary are selected for representing the mean supervector, and most of the dictionary coefficients in the Lasso solution are 0. We denote these sparse dictionary coefficient vectors in the Lasso solutions as the s-vectors and model them using probabilistic linear discriminant analysis (PLDA) for speaker verification. The proposed approach generates comparable results to the conventional cosine distance scoring based i-vector system and improvement is achieved by fusing the proposed method with either the i-vector system or the joint factor analysis (JFA) system. Experiments results are reported on the female part of the NIST SRE 2010 task with common condition 5 using equal error rate (EER), norm old minDCF and norm new minDCF values. The norm new minDCF cost was reduced by 7.5% and 9.6% relative when fusing the proposed approach with the baseline JFA and i-vector systems, respectively. Similarly, 8.3% and 10.7% relative norm old minDCF cost reduction was observed in the fusion. $^{1}$ |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
