New background modeling for speaker verification
نویسنده
چکیده
A new background speaker modelling method is presented in this paper for text-independent speaker verification using Gaussian mixture models. This method does not require speech databases of other speakers to build background speaker models. A background model can be built directly from the same claimed speaker's database and has a smaller number of Gaussian mixtures compared to the claimed speaker model. Experiments performed on the YOHO database showed a better result for speaker verification using the 64-mixture claimed speaker model and 16-mixture background model compared to current background model set methods using five closest background models.

Using Exciting and Spectral Envelope Information and Matrix Quantization for Improvement of the Speaker Verification Systems
Speaker verification from talking a few words of sentences has many applications. Many methods as DTW, HMM, VQ and MQ can be used for speaker verification. We applied MQ for its precise, reliable and robust performance with computational simplicity. We also used pitch frequency and log gain contour for further improvement of the system performance.

متن کاملArticulatory feature-based conditional pronunciation modeling for speaker verification
Because of the differences in education background, accents, etc., different persons have their unique way of pronunciation. This paper exploits the pronunciation characteristics of speakers and proposes a new conditional pronunciation modeling (CPM) technique for speaker verification. The proposed technique aims to establish a link between articulatory properties (e.g., manners and places of a...
