This document outlines the system submitted by the Speech and Audio Research Laboratory at the Queensland University of Technology (QUT) for the Speaker Identity Verification: Application task of EVALITA 2009. This competitive submission consisted of a score-level fusion of three component systems; a joint-factor analysis GMM system and two SVM systems using GLDS and GMM supervector kernels. Development evaluation and post-submission results are presented in this study, demonstrating the effectiveness of this fused system approach. This study highlights the challenges associated with system calibration from limited development data and that mismatch between training and testing conditions continues to be a major source of error in speaker verification technology.
