This document summarizes a survey on speaker recognition systems. It outlines 30 literature sources on topics like using computational auditory scene analysis, independent component analysis, and probabilistic linear discriminant analysis for speaker identification and verification. It also discusses challenges like robustness to noise and variability in recording conditions. The conclusion notes that variability from speakers and channels remains problematic and more work is needed to develop features stable over time and insensitive to variations in speaking style.

27. Conclusion…
• Problems are still with speaker-generated variability and
variability in channel and recording conditions.
• It is very important to investigate feature parameters that
are stable over time, insensitive to the variation of
speaking manner, including the speaking rate and level,
and robust against variations in voice quality due to
causes such as voice disguise or colds.
• Studies on ways to automatically extract the speech
periods of each person separately from a dialogue
involving more than two people have recently appeared as
an extension of speaker recognition technology.
