Voice disguise in automatic speaker recognition

Humans are able to identify other people’s voices even in voice disguise conditions. However, we are not immune to all voice changes when trying to identify people from voice. Likewise, automatic speaker recognition systems can also be deceived by voice imitation and other types of disguise. Taking...

description Humans are able to identify other people’s voices even in voice disguise conditions. However, we are not immune to all voice changes when trying to identify people from voice. Likewise, automatic speaker recognition systems can also be deceived by voice imitation and other types of disguise. Taking into account the voice disguise classification into the combination of two different categories (deliberate/non-deliberate and electronic/non-electronic), this survey provides a literature review on the influence of voice disguise in the automatic speaker recognition task and the robustness of these systems to such voice changes. Additionally, the survey addresses existing applications dealing with voice disguise and analyzes some issues for future research.
