Biologically inspired speaker verification

Speaker verification is an active research problem that has been addressed using a variety of different classification techniques. However, in general, methods inspired by the human auditory system tend to show better verification performance than other methods. In this thesis three biologically inspired speaker verification algorithms are presented. The first is a vowel-dependent speaker verif...

Biologically Inspired Digital Fabrication

Objects and systems in nature are models for the practice of sustainable design and fabrication. From trees to bones, natural systems are characterized by the constant interplay of creation, environmental response, and analysis of current structural constituents, as part of a larger dynamic system. In contrast, traditional methods of digital design and fabrication are characterized by a linear ...

Biologically Inspired Networking

The development of computer networks has seen a paradigm shift from static, hierarchical network structures to highly distributed, autonomous systems without any form of centralized control. For networking nodes, the ability to self-adapt and self-organize in a changing environment has become a key issue. In conventional network structures, e.g., the Internet, there is usually a hierarchical or...

A Biologically Inspired Classifier

We present a method for measuring the distance among records based on the correlations of data stored in the corresponding database entries. The original method (F. Bagnoli, A. Berrones and F. Franci. Physica A 332 (2004) 509-518) was formulated in the context of opinion formation. The opinions expressed over a set of topic originate a “knowledge network” among individuals, where two individual...
