The characteristics of telephone channel and handset have significant effect on the performance of speaker verification systems. The channel/handset mismatch between the training and testing data degrades the performance of speaker verification systems. In this paper, we show that the Autoassociative Neural Network (AANN) models can be used to minimize the effects of channel characteristics on the performance of textindependent speaker verification system. This paper also compares two approaches to represent the background model for AANN based speaker verification system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
