Three basic problems : parameter selection; specifying the similarity measure to make the calculation simple and reliable; updating the reference parameters to adapt to users.,The basic problems of speaker recognition (3),Design compromising.

10、od (3) Text independent speaker recognition system based on VQ (4) Neural Network We have done a speaker recognition system using BP network. It was text dependent.,14.3 Approaches and systems (1),GMM(Gaussian Mixture Model) It is a kind of probability model. Every speaker corresponds a GMM model. P
11、(x|)=Pibi(x), i=1M It means P(x|) is the weighted sum of M normal density bi. x is n-dimensional observation vector; Pi are the weighting coefficients; bi are n-dimensional gaussian functions.,Approaches and systems (2),bi(x) = 1/(2)n/2|Ci|1/2* exp-(x-i)tCi-1(x-i)/2 where i is the mean vector, Ci is
12、 the covariance matrix. i =Pi, i, Ci, i=1M MLE of GMM parameters Assume X = xt t=1T are training feature vectors. The likelyhood of model is P(X|)=P(xt|), t=1T,Approaches and systems (3),The goal for training is to find a 0 such that P(X|0) get maximum: 0 =argmax P(X|) for all P(X|) is non linear fu

Q(,)= t(i)logPibi(xt), i=1M,t=1T,Approaches and systems (4),where t(i)= P(x|)P(it=i|xt,) P(it=i|xt,)=Pibi(xt)/Pmbm(xt) for m=1M Let the partial derivation of Q over
14、Pi,i,Ci, i=1M the following iteration could be : Pi=(1/T) P(it=i|xt,) i= P(it=i|xt,)xt / P(it=i|xt,), i=1M,And i2= P(it=i|xt,)xt2/ P(it=i|xt,), i=1MRecognition Algorithm As soon as we have models for all speakers then we will calculate maximum posteriori probability to find the speaker: S =argmax lo
15、gP(xt|k), t=1T, k=1M,Approaches and systems (5),14.4 Language Identification (1),Principles Different level to recognize and utilize : phonemes, syllable structure, prosodic features, lexicon categories, syntax and semantic network. Structure of Language Identification System Different systems : HMM
16、 based, phoneme based.,Language Identification (2),Our experimental system OGI corpus System now contains four languages : English, Chinese, Spanish, Japanese It is phoneme based. Every language has a set of HMM models for its phonemes. The models are constructed such that every phoneme could be fol
17、lowed by any phoneme. These models are trained by the corpus with the label files.,Language Identification (3),The system structure is similar with above. Every language has a network of HMM models. The incoming utterance (with different length) is feed into every language network and every network
18、will output a probability value for the incoming utterance. By comparing these values the decision could be made, the language will be identified. By our experiments the accuracy could be more than 95%. Because only thing is to decide,Language Identification (4),(continued) which language it is. So if you use two or three utterances to test, you will definitely get a correct answer with very high probability. The way is simpler than the large vocabulary word system based on HMM.,
