The article deals with the most widespread biometric identification systems of individuals, including voice recognition of the speaker on video and sound recordings. The urgency of the topic of identification of a person is due to the active informatization of modern society and the increase of flows of confidential information. The branches of the use of biometric technologies and their general characteristics are given. Here is an overview of the use of identification groups that characterize the voice. Also in the article the division of voice identification systems into the corresponding classes is given. The main advantages of voice biometrics such as simplicity of system realization are considered; low cost (the lowest among all biometric methods); No need for contact, the voice biometry allows for long-range verification, unlike other biometric technologies. The analysis of existing methods of speech recognition recognition identifying a person by a combination of unique voice characteristics, determining their weak and strong points, on the basis of which the choice of the most appropriate method for solving the problem of text-independent recognition, Namely the model of Gaussian mixtures, was carried out. The prerequisite for the development of speech technologies is a significant increase in computing capabilities, memory capacity with a significant reduction in the size of computer systems. It should also be Noted the development of mathematical methods that make it possible to perform the Necessary processing of an audio signal by isolating informative features from it. It has been established that the development of information technologies, and the set of practical applications, which use voice recognition technologies, make this area relevant for further theoretical and practical research.

Recently, the Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) technology offers the potential of designing high performance systems at low cost. The discrete wavelet transform has gained the reputation of being a very effective signal analysis tool for many practical applications. However, due to its computation-intensive nature, current implementation of the transform falls short of meeting real-time processing requirements of most application. The objectives of this paper are implement the Haar and Daubechies wavelets using FPGA technology. In addition, the comparison between the Haar and Daubechies wavelets is investigated. The Bit Error Rat (BER) between the input audio signal and the reconstructed output signal for each wavelet is calculated. It is seen that the BER using Daubechies wavelet techniques is less than Haar wavelet. The design procedure has been explained and designed using the stat-of-art Electronic Design Automation (EDA) tools for system design on FPGA. Simulation, synthesis and implementation on the FPGA target technology has been carried out.


The voice recognition system uses CNN a lot. This is because CNN has the optimized ability to recognize and classify targets. CNN, however, has a problem that the bigger the object to be recognized, the more expensive the computational costs are. In this paper, we are going to solve these problems through MFCC feature extraction and model roll combining CNN and LSTM to present the possibility of performing voice recognition even through low-cost devices.

In  information  security the  following security parameters like, integrity , non repudiation and confidentiality , authentication   must be satisfied.  To avoid thievery of organization resources  it needs be secured in more efficient way  and there is always demand  for different levels of security attacks include virus , brute force and Eveadroper  in business that  organizations make use of voice biometrics an attractive low-cost. Voice biometrics is the  cheapest  among the  other biometrics and used all levels for management to buy readily available metric and it is the way of  identifying individuals remotely  with high level of accuracy . In this work, we have been designed a  new  password- authentication approach  that provides security  using voice biometrics for authentication and uses the device  itself into an authenticator which uses  voice itself as its passwords and we are primarily interested in keys that can be temporally reproduced on the same device from the same user’s voice. Public and private keys are generated  randomly from the user's voice  and stored in the voice file(.wav).This Method uses voice recognition , include the operation of  register( recording feature ) or voice prints  and  storing of one or more voice passwords into the  database. It uses ECDSA to perform the authentication process that matching the  voice sample  with the database. The recognition, entity makes the database  to decide that  the sample is matched to perform an operation or not. Our proposed approach  generates cryptographic keys from voice input itself and this algorithm developed an adhoc basis. It can effectively defend  attacks specially brute force attack in system networks.


Generally, in hospitals the dental chair can be operated forward/backward or upward/downward according to the treatment for the patients which is operated by human. Sometimes the chair will not function properly due to piston rust and over weighted patient and the dentist may have pain in the legs due to continuous operation of the chair. To overcome these issues, planning to design a voice recognition dental chair for the doctors in hospitals. This project describes the design of a smart, motorized, voice controlled dental chair. The voice command is given by the dentist/human, sensor recognizes the voice and sends the command to the Arduino. This voice command is converted to string and it is responsible for movement of chair. The intelligent dental chair is designed in such a way that it can be controlled easily by the doctor and has an advantage is the low cost design. This system was designed and developed to avoid wasting the energy and time of the doctor

Authentication and security in automated systems have become very much necessary in our days and many techniques have been proposed towards this end. One of these alternatives is biometrics in which human body characteristics are used to authenticate the system user. The objective of this article is to present a method of text independent speaker identification through the replication of pitch characteristics. Pitch is an important speech feature and is used in a variety of applications, including voice biometrics. The proposed method of speaker identification is based on short segments of speech, namely, three seconds for training  and three seconds for the speaker determination. From these segments  pitch characteristics are extracted  and are used in the proposed method of replication for identification of the speaker.

Biometric identity systems are now a prominent feature of contemporary law enforcement, including in Europe. Often advanced on the premise of efficiency and accuracy, they have also been the subject of significant controversy. Much attention has focussed on longer-standing biometric data collection, such as finger-printing and facial recognition, foregrounding concerns with the impact such technologies can have on the nature of policing and fundamental human rights. Less researched is the growing use of voice recognition in law enforcement. This paper examines the case of the recent Speaker Identification Integrated Project, a European wide initiative to create the first international and interoperable database of voice biometrics, now the third largest biometric database at Interpol. Drawing on Freedom of Information requests, interviews and public documentation, we outline the emergence and features of SiiP and explore how voice is recognised and attributed meaning. We understand Speaker Identification Integrated Project as constituting a particular ‘regime of recognition’ premised on the use of soft biometrics (age, language, accent and gender) to disembed voice in order to optimise for difference. This, in turn, has implications for the nature and scope of law enforcement, people's position in society, and justice concerns more broadly.
