The multi-session audio research project (MARP) corpus: goals, design and initial findings
نویسندگان
چکیده
This project describes the composition and goals of the Multisession Audio Research Project (MARP) corpus and some initial experimental findings. The MARP corpus is a three year longitudinal collect of 21 sessions and more than 60 participants. This study was undertaken to test the impact of various factors on speaker recognition, such as inter-session variability, intonation, aging, whispering and text dependency. Initial results demonstrate the impact of sentence intonation, whispering, text dependency and cross session tests. These results highlight the sensitivity of speaker recognition to vocal, environmental and phonetic conditions that are commonly encountered but rarely explored or tested.

Session variability contrasts in the MARP corpus
Intra-session and inter-session variability in the Multi-session Audio Research Project (MARP) corpus are contrasted in two experiments that exploit the long-term nature of the corpus. In the first experiment, Gaussian Mixture Models (GMMs) model 30-second session chunks, clustering chunks using the Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence. Cross-session relationships are found to dominate the clusters...

In this research, the multi-objective project management decision problem with fuzzy goals and fuzzy constraints are considered. We constitute α-cut approach and two various fuzzy goal programming solution methods for solving the Multi-Objective Project Management (MOPM) decision problem under fuzzy environments. The Interactive fuzzy multi-objective linear programming (i-FMOLP) and Weighted Ad...
