Speaker identification has become a mainstream technology in the field of machine learning that involves determining the identity of a speaker from his/her speech sample. A person’s speech note contains many features that can be used to discriminate his/her identity. A model that can identify a speaker has wide applications such as biometric authentication, security, forensics and human-machine interaction. This paper implements a speaker identification system based on Random Forest as a classifier to identify the various speakers using MFCC and RPS as feature extraction techniques. The output obtained from the Random Forest classifier shows promising result. It is observed that the accuracy level is significantly higher in MFCC as compared to the RPS technique on the data taken from the well-known TIMIT corpus dataset.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
