    An Evaluation of One-Class Classification Techniques for Speaker Verification
    (University College Dublin. School of Computer Science and Informatics, 2007-08-13) ; ;
    Speaker verification is a challenging problem in speaker recognition where the objective is to determine whether a segment of speech in fact comes from a specific individual. In supervised machine learning terms this is a challenging problem as, while examples belonging to the target class are easy to gather, the set of counterexamples is completely open. In this paper we cast this as a one-class classification problem and evaluate a variety of state-of-the-art one-class classification techniques on a benchmark speech recognition dataset. We show that of the one-class classification techniques, Gaussian Mixture Models shows the best performance on this task.
