Meaning of backgroundNdxFilename in IvTest? #2

Open lbjcom opened 7 years ago

lbjcom commented 7 years ago

I am testing ivector based ASV system by following the ALIZE tutorial. But I don't know the exact meaning of the backgroundNdxFilename parameter in the IvTest configuration. Would you please explain the meaning of the parameter?

outputFilename res/scores_PLDA_lengthnorm.txt outputScoreFormat ascii gender M ndxFilename ndx/ivTest_plda_target-seg.ndx targetIdList ndx/trainModel.ndx scoring plda ivNorm false ivNormIterationNb 1

pldaLoadModel true pldaEigenVoiceMatrix plda_F pldaEigenChannelMatrix plda_G pldaSigmaMatrix plda_Sigma pldaMeanVec plda_originalMean pldaMinDivMean plda_minDivMean

loadVectorFilesExtension .y loadVectorFilesPath ./iv/lengthNorm/ testVectorFilesPath ./iv/lengthNorm/ matrixFilesPath ./mat/ saveMatrixFilesExtension .matx loadMatrixFilesExtension .matx

ivNormLoadParam true ivNormEfrMatrixBaseName EfrMat ivNormEfrMeanBaseName EfrMean

%This parameter!! backgroundNdxFilename ndx/Plda.ndx
