  • Description: AbstractOne of the key problems of the modern day is the presentation of an identity verification system that can perform sufficient accuracy in identity verification, is resilient to assaults and noises, and can be recorded in the simplest possible method. In this study, a new speaker feature extraction which based on discrete wavelet transform (DWT) and linear prediction coding (LPC) algorithm (WLPCA) are investigated. This paper's primary objective is to evidence the performance of the new method for speaker identification by a Gaussian mixture model (GMM). The proposed method improves the recognition rate over the Mel-frequency cepstral coefficient (MFCC). Experimental evaluation of the process performance is performed on two speech databases; our recorded database and the publicly available TIMIT database. We show that the speech features derived by the newly proposed method are more suitable for GMM (91.53%), in terms of the time-consumed, by requiring less Gaussian mixtures than MFCC (85.77%). For testing the presented method in a noisy environment, Additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) was added to the TIMIT database, where a slight improvement in the performance of the presented method (60.02%) over the MFCC (59.89%) was observed.
