Voice Recognition and Voice Comparison using Machine Learning Techniques: A Survey

Voice comparison is a variant of speaker recognition or voice recognition. Voice comparison plays a significant role in the forensic science field and security systems. Precise voice comparison is a challenging problem. Traditionally, different classification and comparison models were used by the researchers to solve the speaker recognition and the voice comparison, respectively but deep learning is gaining popularity because of its strength in accuracy when trained with large amounts of data. This paper focuses on an elaborated literature survey on both traditional and deep learning-based methods of speaker recognition and voice comparison. This paper also discusses publicly available datasets that are used for speaker recognition and voice comparison by researchers. This concise paper would provide substantial input to beginners and researchers for understanding the domain of voice recognition and voice comparison.
