In this work, a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) is suggested for speaker identification in text-independent mode. Mel-Frequency Energy Coefficients (MFEC) method was used for extracting the characteristics of audio signals and the obtained coefficients were injected into the convolutional neural network model for classification (identification). In addition, a comparison was made between the proposed method and the existing traditional methods. Experimental results show that the proposed structure resulted in a speaker identification rate of 97.89%, which is much higher than the rates obtained in the old state of the art methods.enAutomatic Speaker Identification (ASI)Mel-Frequency Energy Coefficients (MFEC)Convolutional Neural Network (CNN)Text-Independent Speaker Identification using Mel-Frequency Energy Coefficients and Convolutional Neural NetworksArticle
