Subject: Speaker Recognition using nasality From: Sanja Dupor <106744.1511(at)COMPUSERVE.COM> Date: Sat, 1 Oct 2005 03:14:44 -0400Tarun, this is described in: Lo Soun Su, K. S. Fu:"Identification of speakers by use of nasal coarticulation" JASA Vol.56, No.6 (Dec. 1974) Sanja Nachricht geschrieben von Tarun Pruthi > Hi all, I wanted to find out if anyone has worked on speaker recognition using nasality in nasalized vowel, or nasal consonantal regions as a cue. Is that possible? Is a person's nasal signature really so unique that it can be used for speaker recognition? Are there any papers out there which show a link between uniqueness in the phsiological structure of the nasal cavity (including the sinuses), and uniqueness in the acoustic domain? Any pointers to relevant papers for/against the idea will be very helpful. With warm regards, Tarun <
