[ES] En la comparación forense de hablantes se pueden examinar diversos parámetros. En el presente trabajo se utilizó un sistema multiparamétrico que combina parámetros acústicos de largo plazo (F0, cualidad de voz y aspectos duracionales) con los parámetros de corto plazo (MFCC) empleados por un sistema automático estándar basado en el enfoque i-vector/PLDA (sistema base). El objetivo era determinar si el nuevo sistema de comparación de hablantes ofrece mejor rendimiento que el sistema base. Para ello se llevaron a cabo tres experimentos condiseños diferentes –que permitieron evaluar el nuevo sistema multiparamétrico en condiciones extremas, a modo de prueba de estrés–: (1) uso de grabaciones con características forenses realistas (p. ej. ruido de fondo, reverberación, variabilidad intra-hablante, compresión de la señal); (2) comparación de las voces de 12 parejas de gemelos monocigóticos; y (3) cotejo de voces con enmascaramiento mediante pinzamiento de nariz. Los resultados obtenidos con el nuevo sistema muestran una mejora de rendimiento con respecto al sistema base, si bien el aporte medio de los parámetros de largo plazo al nuevo sistema fue de un 6.5%, siendo el restante 93.5% responsabilidad de los parámetros de corto plazo.
[EN] In Forensic Speaker Comparison (FSC) several different parameters are commonly analysed. In this investigation we propose a multiparametric system combining long-term features (f0, voice quality and durational aspects) with short-term features (MFCCs), used by a standard automatic system based on i-vector/PLDA approaches (baseline system). The objective was to determine if the performance of the new FSC system is better than that of the baseline system. For this, three experimental designs were carried out –allowing us to evaluate the new multiparametric system in extreme conditions, as if it was a stress test–: (1) use of forensically-realistic characteristics (e.g. background noise, reverberation, intra-speaker variability, signal compression); (2) voice comparison of 12 monozygotic twin pairs; and (3) comparison of disguised voices through noise pinching. The results show that the new system performs better than the baseline system although the mean contribution of long-term features to the new system was 6.5%, with the short-term features being responsible for the remaining 93.5%.
