Speaker recognition using Mel frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) and Vector quantization (VQ) techniques

This paper presents a fast and accurate automatic voice recognition algorithm. We use Mel frequency Cepstral Coefficient (MFCC) to extract the features from voice and Vector quantization technique to identify the speaker, this technique is usually used in data compression, it allows to model a probability functions by the distribution of different vectors, the results that we achieve were 100% of precision with a database of 10 speakers.
