Speaker Identification: Variations of a Human voice (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Kinkiri, S., & Keates, S. (2020). Speaker Identification: Variations of a Human voice. In 2020 International Conference on Advances in Computing and Communication Engineering (ICACCE). https://doi.org/10.1109/icacce49060.2020.9154998

Communication is an essential part of human life. We humans use speech (words) to convey information to each other. Vocal tract characteristics in a human voice help identify a speaker. However, human speech signals are language independent and infor... Read More about Speaker Identification: Variations of a Human voice.

Phonemes: An Explanatory Study Applied to Identify a Speaker (2020)
Conference Proceeding
Kinkiri, S., Barakat, B., & Keates, S. (2020). Phonemes: An Explanatory Study Applied to Identify a Speaker. In Machine Learning, Image Processing, Network Security and Data Sciences (58-68). https://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-15-6318-8_6

Speaker Identification (SI) is a process of identifying a speaker automatically via a machine using the speaker’s voice. In SI, one speaker’s voice is compared with n- number of speakers’ templates within the reference database to find the best match...
