摘要:
The present invention provides a system and method for treating distortion propagated though a detection system. The system includes a compensation module that compensates for untreated distortions propagating through the detection compensation system, a user model pool that comprises of a plurality of model sets, and a model selector that selects at least one model set from plurality of model sets in the user model pool. The compensation is accomplished by continually producing scores distributed according to a prescribed distribution for the at least one model set and mitigating the adverse effects of the scores being distorted and lying off a pre-set operating point.The method for treating distortion propagated though a detection system includes receiving a signal from a remote device, and compensating the signal for untreated distortions. The compensation includes selecting at least one relevant model set from a plurality of model sets, producing scores distributed according to a pre-described distribution for the at least one model set, and mitigating the adverse effect of the scores being distorted by rejecting a signal if it lies off a preset operating point.

There is provided an apparatus for providing a Text Independent (TI) speaker recognition mode in a Text Dependent (TD) Hidden Markov Model (HMM) speaker recognition system and/or a Text Constrained (TC) HMM speaker recognition system. The apparatus includes a Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) generator and a Gaussian weight normalizer. The GMM generator is for creating a GMM by pooling Gaussians from a plurality of HMM states. The Gaussian weight normalizer is for normalizing Gaussian weights with respect to the plurality of HMM states.

Methods and apparatus are provided for sequential authentication of a user that employ one or more error rates characterizing each security challenge. According to one aspect of the invention, a user is challenged with at least one knowledge challenge to obtain an intermediate authentication result; and the user challenges continue until a cumulative authentication result satisfies one or more criteria. The intermediate authentication result is based, for example, on one or more of false accept and false reject error probabilities for each knowledge challenge. A false accept error probability describes a probability of a different user answering the knowledge challenge correctly. A false reject error probability describes a probability of a genuine user not answering the knowledge challenge correctly. The false accept and false reject error probabilities can be adapted based on field data or known information about a given challenge.

摘要:
A method and apparatus for remote access to a target application is disclosed where a system administrator may establish telephonic contact with an interactive voice response system and obtain access to the target application by speech communication. The interactive response system may authenticate the system administrator by implementing various measures including biometric measures. Once access is granted, the interactive response system may broker a communication between the target application using text/data and the system administrator using natural language.
摘要:
A signal representative of an unpredictable audio stimulus is provided to a putative live speaker within a putative live recording environment. A second signal purportedly emanating from the putative live speaker and/or the environment is received. This second signal is examined for influence of the unpredictable audio stimulus on the putative live speaker and/or the putative live recording environment. The examining includes at least one of audio feedback analysis, Lombard analysis, and evoked otoacoustic response analysis. Based on the examining, a determination is made as to whether the putative live speaker is an actual live speaker and/or whether the putative live recording environment is an actual live recording environment.

A method and apparatus detect and localize electric faults in electrical power grids and circuit. High impedance faults are detected by analyzing data from remote sensor units deployed over the network using the algorithms of speech and speaker analysis software. This is accomplished by converting the voltage and/or current waveform readouts from the sensors into a digital form which is then transmitted to a computer located either near the sensors or at an operations center. The digitized data is converted by a dedicated software or software/hardware interface to a format accepted by a reliable and stable software solution, such as speech or speaker recognition software. The speech or speaker recognition software must be “trained” to recognize various signal patterns that either indicate or not the occurrence of a fault. The readout of the speech or speaker recognition software, if indicating a fault, is transmitted to a central processor and displayed to provide information on the most likely type of fault. Automatic or human decision is then implemented based on the generated information.
