Investigation of Frame Alignments for GMM-based Digit-prompted Speaker Verification
Frame alignments can be computed by different methods in GMM-based speaker
verification. By incorporating a phonetic Gaussian mixture model (PGMM), we are
able to compare the performance using alignments extracted from the deep neural
networks (DNN) and the conventional hidden Markov model (HMM) in digit-prompted
speaker verification. Based on the different characteristics of these two
alignments, we present a novel content verification method to improve the
system security without much computational overhead. Our experiments on the
RSR2015 Part-3 digit-prompted task show that, the DNN based alignment performs
on par with the HMM alignment. The results also demonstrate the effectiveness
of the proposed Kullback-Leibler (KL) divergence based scoring to reject speech
with incorrect pass-phrases.Comment: accepted by APSIPA ASC 201
