Comparison of VQ and DTW classifiers for speaker verification

A. M. Ariyaeeinia · 1997

An investigation into the relative speaker verification performance of various types of vector quantisation (VQ) and dynamic time warping (DTW) classifiers is presented. The study covers a number of algorithmic issues involved in the above classifiers, and examines the effects of these on the verification accuracy. The experiments are based on the use of a subset from the Brent (telephone quality) speech database. This subset consists of repetitions of isolated digit utterances 1 to 9 and zero. The paper describes the experimental work, and presents an analysis of the results.
