VoxCeleb datasets are widely used in speaker recognition studies. Our work serves two purposes. First, we provide speaker age labels and (an alternative) annotation of speaker gender. Second, we demonstrate the use of this metadata by constructing age and gender recognition models with different features and classifiers. We query different celebrity databases and apply consensus rules to derive age and gender labels. We also compare the original VoxCeleb gender labels with our labels to identify records that might be mislabeled in the original VoxCeleb data. On modeling side, we design a comprehensive study of multiple features and models for recognizing gender and age. Our best system, using i-vector features, achieved an F1-score of 0.9829 for gender recognition task using logistic regression, and the lowest mean absolute error (MAE) in age regression, 9.443 years, is obtained with ridge regression. This indicates challenge in age estimation from in-the-wild style speech data.
