Abstract

Prosodic information can be used successfully for automatic speaker recognition, although most of the speaker recognition systems use only short-term spectral features as voice information. In this work, prosody information is added to a multimodal system based on face and voice characteristics in order to improve the performance of the system. Fusion is carried out by using various fusion strategies and two different fusion techniques: support vector machines and matcher weighting. Results are clearly improved when a previous normalization based on histogram equalization is done before the fusion of the monomodal scores.
