Problems solved by technology

If this method is simply used as the front-end module of the speaker recognition system, while improving the system performance to a certain extent, it also complicates the system structure and increases the amount of calculation for speech signal processing. Therefore, the integration of this method with the speaker recognition system Become the current technical difficulty

Embodiment Construction

[0030] The specific embodiments of the present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings: figure 1 As shown, the technical solution adopted by the present invention is as follows: A DNN-based i-vector back-end enhancement method for speaker recognition system includes the following steps: divided into two stages: training and recognition, the training steps are:

[0031] The first step is to pre-process the speaker's speech signal, including pre-emphasis, endpoint detection, framing, and windowing.

[0032] (1) Pre-emphasis

[0033] Pre-emphasis is to pass the speech signal through a high-pass filter:

[0034] H(Z) = 1-μz -1

[0035] The value of μ in the formula is between 0.9-1.0, and we usually take 0.97. The purpose of pre-emphasis is to increase the high frequency part, flatten the frequency spectrum of the signal, and keep it in the whole frequency band from low frequency to high frequency, and can use the same signal-to-noise ratio t...

Abstract

The invention discloses a backend i-vector enhancement method for a speaker recognition system. The method is based on a deep neural network; and a backend i-vector regression model for the speaker recognition system is built on the basis of the application of the deep neural network in speech enhancement, and a backend feature processor applicable to the speaker recognition system is obtained. Compared with a conventional front-end speech enhancement algorithm, the backend i-vector enhancement method of the invention can improve the anti-noise performance of the speaker recognition system and optimize the structure model of the speaker recognition system, so that the practicability of the speaker recognition system in a noise environment can be effectively improved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of speaker recognition, and particularly refers to a back-end i-vector enhancement method used in a speaker recognition system. Background technique [0002] Speaker Recognition (SR), also known as voiceprint recognition, is a biometric authentication technology that uses specific speaker information contained in the voice signal to identify the speaker. In recent years, the introduction of identity vector (i-vector) speaker modeling methods based on factor analysis has significantly improved the performance of speaker recognition systems. Experiments show that in the factor analysis of the speaker's speech, the channel subspace usually contains the speaker's information. Therefore, i-vector uses a low-dimensional total variable space to represent the speaker subspace and channel subspace, and maps the speaker's speech to this space to obtain a fixed-length vector representation (i-vector). The speaker recognit...
