Un metodo statistico per il riconoscimento del parlatore basato sull'analisi dei formanti
In this paper, a method for the forensic identification of speakers is presented, based on the analysis of the pitch and the first three formants of the four vowel: "a", "e", "i" and "o". Using these data, the method estimates the probability density function...

In this paper, a method for the forensic identification of speakers is presented, based on the analysis of the pitch and the first three formants of the four vowel: "a", "e", "i" and "o". Using these data, the method estimates the probability density function (pdf) of the Mahalanobis distance both of the defendant from himself (intra-distance estimation) and from the voices of the control set (inter-distance estimation), using the Kernel method for each vowel. The Mahalanobis norm is then used to estimate the pdf related to the four vowel. The sample under study is then classified according to the Maximum Likelihood Criterion approach.
