Speaker identification system and method

摘要

A speaker identification system (10) employs a supervised training process (100) that uses row action projection (RAP) to generate speaker model data for a set of speakers. The training process employing RAP uses less memory and processing resources by operating on a single row of a matrix at a time. Memory requirements are linearly proportional to number of speakers for storing each speakers information. A speaker is identified from the set of speakers by sampling the speaker's speech (202), deriving cepstral coefficients (208), and performing a polynomial expansion (212) on cepstral coefficients. The identified speaker (228) is selected using the product of the speaker model data (213) and the polynomial expanded coefficients from the speech sample.
