Computer Graphics and Video Features for Speaker Recognition

Abstract

We describe a non-traditional method for speaker recognition that uses features and algorithms used mainly for computer vision. Important theoretical knowledge of computer recognition is summarized first. The Boosted Binary Features are described and explored as an already proposed method, that has roots in computer vision. This method is evaluated on standard speaker recognition databases TIMIT and NIST SRE 2010. Experimental results are given and compared to standard methods. Possible directions for future work are proposed at the end
