Abstract
A method for recognizing a speaker in which a voice signal is spoken into a computer by a speaker and a feature vector is formed for the voice signal. The feature vector is compared to at least one stored reference feature vector and to at least one anti-feature vector. The reference feature vector is formed from a speech sample of a speaker to be verified. The anti-feature vector was formed from a speech sample that was spoken in by another speaker who is not the speaker to be verified. A 2-class classification is resolved by forming a similarity value and evaluating the similarity value on the basis of a predetermined range within which the similarity value must deviate from a predetermined value so that the voice signal can be classified as deriving from the speaker to be verified.
