Since any biometric identification requires exhaustive 1 : N comparisons for identifying a biometric probe, comparison time frequently dominates the overall computational workload, preventing the system from being executed in real-time. In this paper we propose a computational efficient two-stage speaker identification system based on Gaussian Mixture Model and Universal Background Model. Binarized voice biometric templates are utilized to pre-screen a large database and thereby reduce the required amount of full comparisons to a fraction of the total. Experimental evaluations demonstrate that the proposed system is capable of significantly accelerating the response-time of the system and, at the same time, identification performance is maintained, confirming the soundness of the scheme.enText/Conference Paper1617-5468
