Abstract

In today’s telecommunications environment, which includes wireless, landline, VoIP, and computer networks, the mismatch between training and testing environments poses a big challenge to speaker authentication systems. In Chapter 8, we addressed the mismatch problem from a feature extraction point of view. In this chapter, we address the problem from an acoustic modeling point of view. These two approaches can be used independently or jointly.
