Principal Component Analysis Based Dominant Features Selection Method for Speaker Identification
Abstract: Cepstrum based features are mostly used in speaker identification. Mel-frequency cepstrum coefficients (MFCCs) and their statistical properties (skewness, kurtosis and standard deviation) are used in this paper for text-dependent speaker identification. Principal component analysis (PCA) is employed to select the dominant feature vector representing the speaker characteristics. Multi-layer neural network is used as the classification engine. There occurs the inter-speaker variation of speech length uttering the same word. The feature …

Pattern Discovery for Text Mining
Abstract: Text mining refers to the process of extracting interesting, non-trivial information and knowledge from unstructured text. The challenging issue is to find accurate cognition or characteristics in text documents to help users to find what they want. Many term-based methods solved this but later suffered from the problems of polysemy and synonymy where polysemy means a word has multiple meanings and synonymy is multiple words having the same meaning. Later …
