In addition to concepts transferred by human speech, it contains information about the language used, the speaker’s emotional state, gender and identity. The goal of a speaker recognition system is to extract information from speech signal and to recognize who the speaker is. Speaker recognition encompasses speaker identification and speaker verification applications. In a speaker identification system, the person is identified from his/her speech and in a speaker verification system, the speaker claims to be a known person and the systems verifies whether the claim is true or not.
