00019         ALIZE is a development project initiated by the ELISA consortium
00020         [alize.univ-avignon.fr/] and funded by the French Research 
00021         Ministry in the framework of the TECHNOLANGUE program 
00022         [www.technolangue.net]
00023 
00024         The ALIZE project team wants to highlight the limits of voice
00025         authentication in a forensic context.
00026         The "Person  Authentification by Voice: A Need of Caution" paper 
00027         proposes a good overview of this point (cf. "Person  
00028         Authentification by Voice: A Need of Caution", Bonastre J.F., 
00029         Bimbot F., Boe L.J., Campbell J.P., Douglas D.A., Magrin-
00030         chagnolleau I., Eurospeech 2003, Genova].
00031         The conclusion of the paper of the paper is proposed bellow:
00032         [Currently, it is not possible to completely determine whether the 
00033         similarity between two recordings is due to the speaker or to other 
00034         factors, especially when: (a) the speaker does not cooperate, (b) there 
00035         is no control over recording equipment, (c) recording conditions are not 
00036         known, (d) one does not know whether the voice was disguised and, to a 
00037         lesser extent, (e) the linguistic content of the message is not 
00038         controlled. Caution and judgment must be exercised when applying speaker 
00039         recognition techniques, whether human or automatic, to account for these 
00040         uncontrolled factors. Under more constrained or calibrated situations, 
00041         or as an aid for investigative purposes, judicious application of these 
00042         techniques may be suitable, provided they are not considered as infallible.
00043         At the present time, there is no scientific process that enables one to 
00044         uniquely characterize a person=92s voice or to identify with absolute 
00045         certainty an individual from his or her voice.]
