Abstract(in English) When we hear a voice from amusement media such as animes, games, movies, and music, we sometimes feel like that we have heard the voice somewhere. To check whose voice it is in a playing anime video, we have to carry extra burdens of skipping the anime video to the staff roll of the ending once and searching the Web by the anime title and/or character name. This paper proposes a Voice Actor Recognition system that recognize a voice actor's name from her/his voice in a playing anime video and displays the name automatically in real time. The system uses the sound waveform data of a playing anime video and each voice actor's sound waveform data stored in a voice actor database to calculate their similarity. And moreover it filters by cast information (textual information of pairs of a character name and its voice actor's name) on the Web searched by the title of a playing anime video.
