Speaker recognition using adaptively boosted decision tree classifier

In this paper, a novel approach for speaker recognition is proposed. The approach makes use of adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) and C4.5 decision trees for closed set, text-dependent speaker recognition. A subset of 20 speakers, 10 male and 10 female, drawn from the YOHO speaker verification corpus is...

Description
Summary:In this paper, a novel approach for speaker recognition is proposed. The approach makes use of adaptive boosting (AdaBoost) and C4.5 decision trees for closed set, text-dependent speaker recognition. A subset of 20 speakers, 10 male and 10 female, drawn from the YOHO speaker verification corpus is used to assess the performance of the system. Results reveal that an accuracy of 99.5% of speaker identification may be achieved.
