Robust Text-independent Speaker recognition with Short Utterances using Gaussian Mixture Models

Rania Chakroun, Mondher Frikha · 2020

An important amount of speech is typically required for speaker identification system development and evaluation. Nowadays, robust speaker identification systems when short utterances are used remains a key consideration for automatic speaker recognition, since a lot of real world applications are able to deal with only limited duration speech data. This paper presents a new approach based on a low complexity solution based on a new feature vectors to build Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) for speaker identification systems especially when training and testing utterance lengths are reduced. We compared our proposed system to the state-of-the-art based system in Speaker identification. Experiments on TIMIT database were conducted to demonstrate that this new feature vector can outperform the standard GMM-based system and show that there is no need for extra-data to identify the speakers.
