Abstract(in English) | This paper presents an experimental study on speaker verification performances using air and ear microphones in various acoustic conditions. Most existing speaker verification systems use an air microphone. Such systems often suffer from real environments which practically include background noise and/or reverberation. Ear microphone, whose transmission bandwidth is often limited due to skin or bone conduction, gives poor performance as compared with air microphone under ideal condition, while it is worn on the user’s ear and hence robust to background noise. This paper attempts to discover suitable conditions for speaker verification systems using those two microphones. Effective combination of the microphones is also studied in terms of score fusion. |
