Abstract

An automatic voice-based classification system of speaker characteristics including age, gender and accent is presented in this paper. Speakers are grouped according to their characteristics and their speech features are then extracted to train speaker group models using different classification techniques. Finally fusion of classification results for those speaker groups is performed to obtain results for each speaker characteristic. The ANDOSL Australian speech database consisting of 108 speakers and 21600 long utterances was used for system evaluation. Experiments showed high performance for the proposed classification of speaker characteristics.
