recipe for NIST SRE 2014

Step 0:  Double check you have a better speech audio quality, if you can:
Instead of using the lossy (μlaw) coding, use full-bandwidth version of microphone data (if available) [1]



Step 1: Feature Extraction: Using i-Vector system

Step 2: Back-end Classification: Multi-session back-end [2]
