초록

A medium scale Urdu speakers' and English speakers' database with multiple accents and dialects has been developed to use in Urdu Speaker Verification Systems, English Speaker Verification Systems, accents and dialect verification systems. Urdu is the national language of Pakistan and English is the official language. Majority of the people are non-native Urdu speakers and non-native English in all regions of Pakistan in general and Gilgit-Baltistan region in particular. In order to design Urdu and English speaker verification systems for security applications in general and telephone banking in particular, two databases has been designed one for foreign accent of Urdu and another for foreign accent of English language. For the design of databases, voice data is collected from 180 speakers from GB region of Pakistan who could speak Urdu as well as English. The speakers include both genders (males and females) with different age groups ranging from 18 to 69 years. Finally, using a subset of the data, Multilayer Perceptron based speaker verification system has been designed. The designed system achieved overall accuracy rate of 83.4091% for English dataset and 80.0454% for Urdu dataset. It shows slight differences (4.0% with English and 7.4% with Urdu) in recognition accuracy if compared with the recently proposed multilayer perceptron (MLP) based SIS achieved 87.5% recognition accuracy
