Several recent adaptive and non-adaptive techniques for reaching the verification decision (i.e., to accept or reject the claimant,',','), based on audio and visual information, are evaluated in clean and noisy conditions on a common database using a text-independent setup. It is shown that in clean conditions all the non-adaptive approaches provide similar performance; in noisy conditions they exhibit deterioration in their performance. It is also shown that current adaptive approaches are either inadequate or utilize restrictive assumptions. A new category of classifiers is then introduced, where the decision surface is fixed but constructed to take into account the effects of noisy conditions, providing a good trade-off between performance in clean and noisy conditions.}, pdf = {https://publications.idiap.ch/attachments/reports/2002/rr02-33.pdf}, postscript = {ftp://ftp.idiap.ch/pub/reports/2002/rr02-33.ps.gz}, ipdmembership={learning}, }
