问题
Good evening, I'm working on a project with Kinect and I need to perform a gender-recognition using the voice information caught by the microphone of the sensor. The recognition could also be text-based, i.e. the sentence said by the user could always be the same. I "just" need the binary answer male/female.
I've checked the quite popular open-source Sphinx but I can't understand if it could be used for my needs.
Any idea of what I could use?
Thanks in advance.
回答1:
For sake of completeness, finally I solved the recognition task without analyzing the voice input.
Gender can be detected with an acceptable precision also by learning and then classifying visual biometric traits. I used speech recognition only as "interface" to activate the demo.

There are several ways to achieve this. You can track pitch (lower pitch values will be male, otherwise female). Or try to build a GMM (Sphinx cannot do this, but HTK can), with one model for male, other for female and another to children.
