Abstract:

This paper discusses the text dependent Speaker Verification system. It shows the basic principles behind this technology. Some important applications of this speaker verification system are discussed in brief.

INTRODUCTION:

Speech contains information about the identity of the speaker. Speaker Verification is confirming the identity of an individual from his speech. There are several possible applications for speaker verification in security and identification systems. Some examples include automatic teller machines (ATM) and home or vehicle access. There are several possible implementations for systems that perform speaker verification. The implementation which most commonly comes to mind is that of the matched filter. There are various characteristics of signals which can be matched for instance magnitude, energy ,frequency etc.

MOTIVATION

Security being the major cause of concern in modern world , speaker verification is a good option because of its reliability and user friendly nature. Comparing to other biometric methods like fingerprint or face recognition, speaker verification systems do not require expensive specialized equipments and are effective especially for remote identity verification.
