Fuzzy normalisation methods for speaker verification

چکیده
This paper proposes normalisation methods based on fuzzy set theory for speaker veri cation. A claimed speaker's score used to accept or reject this speaker is viewed as a fuzzy membership function. We propose two scores: the fuzzy entropy and fuzzy C-means membership functions. Moreover, a likelihood transformation is considered to obtain a general approach and, based on this, ve more fuzzy scores are proposed. Finally, a noise clustering method is applied to the current and proposed methods, reducing the equal error rate in all cases. Experiments performed on the ANDOSL and YOHO speech corpora show better results for all proposed methods.

Fuzzy C-Means Clustering-Based Speaker Verification
In speaker verification, a claimed speaker’s score is computed to accept or reject the speaker claim. Most of the current normalisation methods compute the score as the ratio of the claimed speaker’s and the impostors’ likelihood functions. Based on analysing false acceptance error occured by the current methods, we propose a fuzzy c-means clusteringbased normalisation method to find a better s...
متن کاملNoise Clustering-Based Speaker Verification
The normalisation method for speaker verification proposed in this paper is based on the idea of the noise clustering method in fuzzy clustering. The proposed method can reduce false acceptance errors and apply to all current normalisation scores. Experiments performed on the ANDOSL and YOHO speech corpora show better results for the proposed method.
متن کاملFuzzy Normalisation Methods for Pattern Verification
A fuzzy approach to normalization methods for pattern verification is presented in this paper. For an input object and a claimed identity, a claimed pattern's score is calculated and compared with a given threshold to accept or reject the claimed pattern. Considering the pattern verification problem based on fuzzy set theory, the claimed pattern's score is viewed as a fuzzy membership function....
متن کاملAnalysis and comparison of score normalisation methods for text-dependent speaker verification
This paper presents an investigation into the relative effectiveness of various score normalisation methods for speaker verification. The study provides a thorough analysis of different approaches for normalising verification scores, and comparatively examines these under identical experimental conditions. The experiments are based on the use of subsets of the Brent (telephone quality) speech d...
