Learning Virtual HD Model for Bi-model Emotional Speaker Recognition

Pitch mismatch between training and testing is one of the important factors causing the performance degradation of the speaker recognition system. In this paper, we adopted the missing feature theory and specified the Unreliable Region (UR) as the parts of the utterance with high emotion induced pitch variation. To model these regions, a virtual HD (High Different from neutral, with large pitch offset) model for each target speaker was built from the virtual speech, which were converted from the neutral speech by the Pitch Transformation Algorithm (PTA). In the PTA, a polynomial transformation function was learned to model the relationship of the average pitch between the neutral and the high-pitched utterances. Compared with traditional GMM-UBM and our previous method, our new method obtained 1.88% and 0.84% identification rate (IR) increase on the MASC respectively, which are promising results.
