ABSTRACT This paper describes an HMM based speaker verification system, which verifies speakers in their own specific feature space. This ‘individual’ feature space is determined by a Dynamic Programming (DP) feature selection algorithm. A suitable criterion, correlated with Equal Error Rate (EER) was developed and is used for this feature selection algorithm. The algorithm was evaluated on a text-dependent database. A significant improvement in verification results was demonstrated with the DP selected individual feature space. An EER of 4.8% was achieved when the feature set was the “almost standard” Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients (MFCC) space (12 MFCC + 12 ∆MFCC). Under the same conditions, a system based on the selected feature space yielded an EER of only 2.7%.
1. INTRODUCTION Today, Automatic Speaker Verification (ASV) systems use a common feature space for all speakers. Moreover, this common set of features is most often the set of cepstral and delta-cepstral coefficients, used in speech recognition tasks. Very little work has been done on selecting the optimal feature space for speaker verification/identification tasks [1, 2, 5-9]. The main idea in our research is that every speaker has his own ‘optimal’ feature space, which optimally discriminates him from other speakers. This was supported by preliminary past work [1]. Feature selection is the process of selecting a features subset, which is most effective for preserving class separability. The feature selection method can be specified in terms of two components: 1) A performance criterion 2) Selection procedure, The problem of feature selection can be described as follows: Given a set y of K features y = { yi | i = 1, 2,..., K } select a subset x (of k
