ABSTRACT Nowadays, represents an attractive challenge the application of Automatic speaker recognition in real scenarios, where the use of short duration signals for forensic or biometric speaker verification is very common. In this paper we perform an analysis of the behavior of within-class and between-classes scatter matrices, showing the importance to reduce within-class scatter to face the speaker recognition with short duration utterances. In addition, two duration compensation methods for short duration utterances on i-vector framework were proposed. Both of them were evaluated through speaker verification experiments on NIST-SRE 2008 dataset. The proposed methods shown an improvements under enrollment-test matched conditions regard to the duration.

Palabras clave : short utterance; variability compensation; speaker verification; i-vector.
