Individual Identification Through Voice Using Mel-Frequency Cepstrum Coefficient (MFCC) and Hidden Markov Models (HMM) Method

Abstract

Voice is one of the parameters in the identification process of a person. Through the voice, information will be obtained such as gender, age, and even the identity of the speaker. Speaker recognition is a method to narrow down crimes and frauds committed by voice. So that it will minimize the occurrence of faking one's identity. The Method of Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficient (MFCC) can be used in the speech recognition system. The process of feature extraction of speech signal using MFCC will produce acoustic speech signal. The classification, Hidden Markov Models (HMM) is used to match unidentified speaker’s voice with the voices in database. In this research, the system is used to verify the speaker, namely 15 text dependent in Indonesian. On testing the speaker with the same as database, the highest accuracy is 99,16%.
