Speaker recognition systems

This thesis attempts to address the problem of how best to remedy different types of channel distortions on speech when that speech is to be used in automatic speaker recognition and verification systems. Automatic speaker recognition is when a person's voice is analysed by a machine and the person's identity is worked out by the comparison of speech features to a known set of speech features. Automatic speaker verification is when a person claims an identity and the machine determines if that claimed identity is correct or whether that person is an impostor.

An introduction to automatic speaker recognition is presented in this chapter. The identifying characteristics of a person’s voice that make it possible to automatically identify a speaker are discussed. Subtasks such as speaker identification, verification, and detection are described. An overview of the techniques used to build speaker models as well as issues related to system performance are presented. Finally, a few selected applications of speaker recognition are introduced to demonstrate the wide range of applications of speaker recognition technologies.
