The concept of speaker recognition using i-vectors was recently introduced offering state-of-the-art performance. An i-vector is a compact representation of a speaker’s utteranc...
—Discriminative Training (DT) methods for acoustic modeling, such as MMI, MCE, and SVM, have been proved effective in speaker recognition. In this paper we propose a DT method fo...
The best performing systems in the area of automatic speaker recognition have focused on using short-term, low-level acoustic information, such as sepstral features. Recently, vari...
Missing data techniques have been recently applied to speaker recognition to increase performance in noisy environments. The drawback of these techniques is the vulnerability of t...
For years, researchers in face recognition area have been representing and recognizing faces based on subspace discriminant analysis or statistical learning. Nevertheless, these a...
