Speaker verification with elicited speaking styles in the VeriVox project
نویسندگان
چکیده
Some experiments to take care of within speaker variations in speaker verification has been performed. To get speaker variation, speaking behaviour elicitation software has been developed. It was found that if an ASV system was trained on varied speech, speaker verification on even more varied speech improved significantly.

Within-speaker variability in the VeriVox database
The present paper contains some data on acoustic speech variations due to different speaking manners found in the VeriVox speech database. The database was recorded using special software aimed at getting both voluntary and involuntary speech variations. Some involuntary variations, speech in noise and speech when other tasks interfere, has been studied. Data on speaking rate, loudness, F0 and ...
متن کاملVowel Shortening in Altered Speech Modes Elicited via an Interactive Task
Clear speaking styles have been demonstrated to enhance certain acoustic-phonetic features of speech. However, previous work on speech production changes has mainly used interactions with imaginary interlocutors or read speech. In this study, two types of altered speech modes were elicited through a new combination of ‘gap’ and ‘map’ tasks, which leads to unscripted dialogues between interlocut...
متن کاملEffects of vocal effort and speaking style on text-independent speaker verification
We study the question of how intrinsic variations (associated with the speaker rather than the recording environment) affect text-independent speaker verification performance. Experiments using the SRI-FRTIV corpus, which systematically varies both vocal effort and speaking style, reveal that (1) “furtive” speech poses a significant challenge; (2) conversations and interviews, despite stylistic...
متن کاملWithin speaker variation due to induced stress
Some preliminary investigations on within-speaker variations due to induced stress have been performed. The background is that we wanted to investigate ways to take care of within speaker variations in speaker verification. To get speaker variation, speaking behaviour elicitation software has been developed. The software is used to record speech from 50 Swedish male speakers. In this paper the ...
متن کاملSpeech style and speaker recognition: a case study
This work presents an experimental evaluation of the effect of different speech styles on the task of speaker identification. Although the informal notion of a speaking style does not readily translate into operational procedures for eliciting speech in one style or another, we make use of willfully altered voice extracted from the CHAINS corpus and methodically assess the effect of its use in ...
