A novel algorithm based on classical cepstrum calculation followed by dynamic programming is presented in this paper. The algorithm has been evaluated with a 60-minutes database containing 60 speakers and different recording conditions and environments. A second reference database has also been used. In addition, the performance of four popular PDA algorithms has been evaluated with the same databases. The results prove the good performance of the described algorithm in noisy conditions. Furthermore, the paper is a first initiative to perform an evaluation of widely used PDA algorithms over an extensive and realistic database.
