Abstract

A method and apparatus of building an acoustic feature extracting model, and an acoustic feature extracting method and apparatus. The method of building an acoustic feature extracting model comprises: considering first acoustic features extracted respectively from speech data corresponding to user identifiers as training data; using the training data to train a deep neural network to obtain an acoustic feature extracting model; wherein a target of training the deep neural network is to maximize similarity between the same user's second acoustic features and minimize similarity between different users' second acoustic features. The acoustic feature extracting model according to the present disclosure can self-learn optimal acoustic features that achieves a training target. As compared with a conventional acoustic feature extracting manner with a preset feature type and transformation manner, the acoustic feature extracting manner of the present disclosure achieves better flexibility and higher accuracy.
