Abstract
Pattern recognition is one of the fundamental technologies in speaker authentication. Understanding the concept of pattern recognition is important in developing speaker authentication algorithms and applications. There are already many books and tutorial papers on pattern recognition and neural network. Instead of repeating a similar introduction of the fundamental pattern recognition and neural networks techniques, we introduce a different approach for neural network training and construction that was developed by the author and Tufts and named the principal feature network (PFN), which is an analytical method to construct a classifier or recognizer. Through this chapter, readers will gain a better understanding of pattern recognition methods and neural networks and their relation to multivariate statistical analysis.
