Abstract

The article proposes a method for user authentication based on formant characteristics. A biometric image has been developed consisting of the formant characteristics of 46 sounds of the Russian language (6 vowels, 4 diphthongs and 36 consonants). An authentication system architecture based on formant characteristics and frequency of the leading formant of vowels and consonants is proposed. A Module for extracting the formant characteristics of vowels and consonants has been developed. A block diagram of the Module for extracting the formant characteristics of vowels and consonants and block diagrams of its submodules are presented. The Random Forest algorithm, k-nearest neighbors, logistic regression, multilayer perceptron and Support Vector Machine are combined into a cluster of algorithms. A block diagram of training and testing models based on a cluster of algorithms is given. Models were trained on the basis of algorithms clusters. The results of the experiment were obtained and their analysis was carried out.
