In this paper, we introduce a new class of noise robust features derived from an alternative measure of autocorrelation representing the phase variation of speech signal frame over time. These features, referred to as Phase AutoCorrelation (PAC) features i ...
The log-energy parameter, typically derived from a full-band spectrum, is a critical feature commonly used in automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems. However, log-energy is difficult to estimate reliably in the presence of background noise. In this pap ...
Setting out from the point of view that automatic speech recognition (ASR) ought to benefit from data in languages other than the target language, we propose a novel Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence based method that is able to exploit multilingual informa ...
This paper evaluates the performance of the twelve primary systems submitted to the evaluation on speaker verification in the context of a mobile environment using the MOBIO database. The mobile environment provides a challenging and realistic test-bed for ...
Recent research has demonstrated the effectiveness of vocal tract length normalization (VTLN) as a rapid adaptation technique for statistical parametric speech synthesis. VTLN produces speech with naturalness preferable to that of MLLR-based adaptation tec ...
Any biometric recognizer is vulnerable to spoofing attacks and hence voice biometric, also called automatic speaker verification (ASV), is no exception; replay, synthesis, and conversion attacks all provoke false acceptances unless countermeasures are used ...
The i-vector and Joint Factor Analysis (JFA) systems for text- dependent speaker verification use sufficient statistics computed from a speech utterance to estimate speaker models. These statis- tics average the acoustic information over the utterance ther ...
This paper presents Subspace Gaussian Mixture Model (SGMM) approach employed as a probabilistic generative model to estimate speaker vector representations to be subsequently used in the speaker verification task. SGMMs have already been shown to significa ...
