Arabic Word Dependent Speaker Identification System Using Artificial Neural Network
International Journal of Circuits Systems and Signal Processing · 2020
The security of systems is a vital issue for any society. Hence, the need for authentication mechanisms that protect the confidentiality of users is important. This paper proposes a speech based security system that is able to identify Arabic speakers by using an Arabic word )شكرا (which means “Thank you”. The pre-processing steps are performed on the speech signals to enhance the signal to noise ratio. Features of speakers are obtained as Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC). Moreover, feature selection (FS) and radial basis function neural network (RBFNN) are implemented to classify and identify speakers. The proposed security system gives a 97.5% accuracy rate in its user identification process.
