        ALIZE is a development project initiated by the ELISA consortium
        [alize.univ-avignon.fr/] and funded by the French Research 
        Ministry in the framework of the TECHNOLANGUE program 
        [www.technolangue.net]

        The ALIZE project team wants to highlight the limits of voice
        authentication in a forensic context.
        The "Person  Authentification by Voice: A Need of Caution" paper 
        proposes a good overview of this point (cf. "Person  
        Authentification by Voice: A Need of Caution", Bonastre J.F., 
        Bimbot F., Boe L.J., Campbell J.P., Douglas D.A., Magrin-
        chagnolleau I., Eurospeech 2003, Genova].
        The conclusion of the paper of the paper is proposed bellow:
        [Currently, it is not possible to completely determine whether the 
        similarity between two recordings is due to the speaker or to other 
        factors, especially when: (a) the speaker does not cooperate, (b) there 
        is no control over recording equipment, (c) recording conditions are not 
        known, (d) one does not know whether the voice was disguised and, to a 
        lesser extent, (e) the linguistic content of the message is not 
        controlled. Caution and judgment must be exercised when applying speaker 
        recognition techniques, whether human or automatic, to account for these 
        uncontrolled factors. Under more constrained or calibrated situations, 
        or as an aid for investigative purposes, judicious application of these 
        techniques may be suitable, provided they are not considered as infallible.
        At the present time, there is no scientific process that enables one to 
        uniquely characterize a person=92s voice or to identify with absolute 
        certainty an individual from his or her voice.]
