Abstract

In this paper we present a fusion methodology for combining prompted text-dependent and text-independent speaker verification operation modalities. The fusion is performed in score level extracted from GMM-UBM single mode speaker verification engines using several machine learning algorithms for classification. In order to improve the performance we apply clustering of the score-based data before the classification stage. The experimental results indicated that the fusion of the two operation modes improves the speaker verification performance both in terms of sensitivity and specificity by approximately 2 % and 1.5 % respectively.
