Comparative Evaluation of Various MFCC Implementations on the Speaker Verification Task
نویسندگان
چکیده
Making no claim of being exhaustive, a review of the most popular MFCC (Mel Frequency Cepstral Coefficients) implementations is made. These differ mainly in the particular approximation of the nonlinear pitch perception of human, the filter bank design, and the compression of the filter bank output. Then, a comparative evaluation of the presented implementations is performed on the task of text-independent speaker verification, by means of the well-known 2001 NIST SRE (speaker recognition evaluation) one-speaker detection database.

Speaker Verification Using Complementary Information from Vocal Source and Vocal Tract
This paper describes a speaker verification system which uses two complementary acoustic features: Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) and wavelet octave coefficients of residues (WOCOR). While MFCC characterizes mainly the spectral envelope, or the formant structure of the vocal tract system, WOCOR aims at representing the spectro-temporal characteristics of the vocal source excitation....
متن کاملWavelet packet based speaker verification
In an attempt to find out a more appropriate representation of a speech signal for the task of speaker recognition, we study alternative ways to represent speakers’ voices individuality. A novel wavelet packet based set of speech features, apposite for speaker recognition, is proposed. We exploit the capabilities offered by the plethora of existing wavelets, along with the powerful set of ortho...
متن کاملLimited Data Speaker Verification: Fusion of Features
The present work demonstrates experimental evaluation of speaker verification for different speech feature extraction techniques with the constraints of limited data (less than 15 seconds). The state-of-the-art speaker verification techniques provide good performance for sufficient data (greater than 1 minutes). It is a challenging task to develop techniques which perform well for speaker verif...
متن کاملSpeaker Verification Based on Wavelet Packets
Alternative ways to represent speaker’s voice individuality are studied for the task of speaker verification. We exploit a set of orthonormal bases provided by wavelet packets that allow an effective manipulation of the frequency subbands according to the critical bands concept. Novel wavelet packet based sets of speech features are contrasted with existing wavelet features as well as with the ...
متن کاملDevelopment of CRIM system for the automatic speaker verification spoofing and countermeasures challenge 2015
The automatic speaker verification spoofing and countermeasures challenge 2015 provides a common framework for the evaluation of spoofing countermeasures or anti-spoofing techniques in the presence of various seen and unseen spoofing attacks. This contribution proposes a system consisting of amplitude, phase, linear prediction residual, and combined amplitude phase-based countermeasures for the...
