Praveen N, Tessamma Thomas . Text Dependent Speaker Recognition using MFCC features and BPANN. International Journal of Computer Applications. 74, 5 ( July 2013), 31-39. DOI=10.5120/12883-9788
Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients are spectral feature which are widely used for speaker recognition and text dependent speaker recognition systems are the most accurate in voice based authentication systems. In this paper, a text dependent speaker recognition method is developed. MFCCs are computed for a selected sentence. The first 13 MFCCs are considered for each frames of duration 26ms and each coefficient is clustered to a 5 element cluster centres and finally to a form a 65 element speech code vector for the entire speech. The speech code is trained using a multi-layer perceptron backpropagation gradient descent network and the network is tested for various test patterns. The performance is measured using FAR, FRR and EER parameters. The recognition rate achieved is 96. 18% for a cluster size of 5 in each coefficient.
