Within the CAVE project (Caller Verification in Banking and Telecommunication)
we have done extensive research on speaker verification. However, speaker
verification does not give sufficient information about inter-speaker relations,
and that is one of the topics we want to investigate. So we decided to use speaker
identification experiments to address the following two questions. Is there a reliable
measure to classify speakers as resistant, dependable, unreliable or vulnerable? (This
is the so called goat-lamb classification.) Secondly, can we construct a distance
measure between speakers based on log likelihoods? And naturally, what is the
relation between these two questions?
