Voice is one of the parameters in the identification process of a person. Through the voice, information will be obtained such as gender, age, and even the identity of the speaker. Speaker recognition is a method to narrow down crimes and frauds committed by voice. So that it will minimize the occurrence of faking one's identity. The Method of Mel Frequency Cepstrum Coefficient (MFCC) can be used in the speech recognition system. The process of feature extraction of speech signal using MFCC will produce acoustic speech signal. The classification, Hidden Markov Models (HMM) is used to match unidentified speaker’s voice with the voices in database. In this research, the system is used to verify the speaker, namely 15 text dependent in Indonesian. On testing the speaker with the same as database, the highest accuracy is 99,16%.

This book explores important aspects of Markov and hidden Markov processes and the applications of these ideas to various problems in computational biology. It starts from first principles, so that no previous knowledge of probability is necessary. However, the work is rigorous and mathematical, making it useful to engineers and mathematicians, even those not interested in biological applications. A range of exercises is provided, including drills to familiarize the reader with concepts and more advanced problems that require deep thinking about the theory. Biological applications are taken from post-genomic biology, especially genomics and proteomics. The topics examined include standard material such as the Perron–Frobenius theorem, transient and recurrent states, hitting probabilities and hitting times, maximum likelihood estimation, the Viterbi algorithm, and the Baum–Welch algorithm. The book contains discussions of extremely useful topics not usually seen at the basic level, such as ergodicity of Markov processes, Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC), information theory, and large deviation theory for both i.i.d and Markov processes. It also presents state-of-the-art realization theory for hidden Markov models. Among biological applications, it offers an in-depth look at the BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Technique) algorithm, including a comprehensive explanation of the underlying theory. Other applications such as profile hidden Markov models are also explored.
