Abstract

Not only does the human voice provide the semantics of the spoken words but also it contains the speaker-dependent characteristics, such as the gender, the age, and the emotional state of the speaker. In the last decade, speech recognition gained a great interest in identifying and tracking systems. According to the speech length of ten to thirty seconds, this paper proposes an age and gender classification method for permission control of mobile devices. Each speech signal is firstly extracted to 40 features by Mel Frequency cepstral Coefficients (MFCC). After that, the Support Vector Machine (SVM) is used to finish the age and gender classification. This paper studies six kernel models of SVM and concludes that cubic, quadratic, and medium Gaussian kernel models could improve the recognition rate up to 93.75%, 91.25% and 93.75% respectively. Therefore, it is promising for permission control of a mobile in tracking systems.
