Fast Fourier Transform (FFT)

Mel Filter Bank

Windowing techniques

Euclidean Distance

Vector Quantization (VQ)

The automatic speaker recognition system consists of 2 phases: enrollment and testing phase. In the enrollment phase, a database of 8 speakers were created and stored in as a reference. The set of speaker’s voice samples are trained using MFCC and Vector Quantization. These feature vectors are stored as reference models. In the testing phase, the unknown speaker’s identity is matched against the reference models and the recognition is made. Speaker identification and verification are simulated and the results are verified. Simulation is completed using MATLAB 2013a. Speaker recognitions accuracy of 100% was obtained for a set of 8 pre-recorded speakers.
