In this paper we first introduce four kinds of modification of Symmetric Scoring [1] which produce likelihood ratios that do not need to be explicitly normalized, i.e. T-norm, Z...
We investigate usefulness of across-phone variability for speaker recognition in a joint factor analysis (JFA) framework. We estimate the variability as across-phone covariance wi...
We describe recent progress in the field of prosodic modeling for speaker verification. In a previous paper, we proposed a technique for modeling syllable-based prosodic feature...
We propose a novel approach to modeling prosodic features. Inspired by Joint Factor Analysis model (JFA), our model is based on the same idea of introducing subspace of model para...

The expectation maximization (EM) algorithm is widely used in the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) as the state-of-art statistical modeling technique. Like the classical EM method, th...
