摘要
Emotion variability is an important factor that degrades the performce of speaker recognition system. This paper borrows ideas from Joint Factor Analysis (JFA) algorithm based on the similarity between emotion effect and channel effect and develops Emotional Factor Analysis (EFA) into solving the emotion variability problem. 1-Vector is appiled also. The experiment carried on MASC (Madarin Affective Speech Corpus) shows that EFA and I-Vector method can bring an IR increase of 7%similar to 10% and an EER reduction of 3%similar to 4% compared with the GMM-UBM system.
