  • Patent number: 9002706
    Abstract: The invention refers to a method for comparing voice utterances, the method comprising the steps: extracting a plurality of features (201) from a first voice utterance of a given text sample and extracting a plurality of features (201) from a second voice utterance of said given text sample, wherein each feature is extracted as a function of time, and wherein each feature of the second voice utterance corresponds to a feature of the first voice utterance; applying dynamic time warping (202) to one or more time dependent characteristics of the first and/or second voice utterance e.g.
