Design Of An Automatic Speaker Recognition System Using MFCC, Vector Quantization And LBG Algorithm
Journal Title: International Journal on Computer Science and Engineering - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 8
Abstract
The results of a case study carried out while developing an automatic speaker recognition system are presented in this paper. The Vector Quantization (VQ) approach is used for mapping vectors from a large vector space to a finite number of regions in that space. Each region is called a cluster and can be represented by its center called a codeword. The collection of all codewords is called a codebook. After the enrolment session, the acoustic vectors extracted from input speech of a speaker provide a set of training vectors. LBG algorithm due to Linde, Buzo and Gray is used for clustering a set of L training vectors into a set of M codebook vectors. For comparison purpose, the distance between each test codeword and each codeword in the master codebook is computed. The difference is used to make recognition decision. The entire coding was done in MATLAB and the system was tested for its reliability.
