Speaker Verification using I-vector Features
Ahilan Kanagasundaram · 2014
This PhD research has provided novel solutions to three major challenges which have prevented the wide spread deployment of speaker recognition technology: (1) combating enrolment/ verification mismatch, (2) reducing the large amount of development and training data that is required and (3) reducing the duration of speech required to verify a speaker. A range of applications of speaker recognition technology from forensics in criminal investigations to secure access in banking will benefit from the research outcomes.
