    A comparison of performances is made of three text-independent speaker identification methods based on dual Penalized Logistic Regression Machine (dPLRM), Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) with experiments by 10 male speakers. The methods are compared for the speech data which were collected over the period of 13 months in 6 utterance-sessions of which the earlier 3 sessions were for obtaining training data of 12 seconds' utterances. Comparisons are made with the Mel-frequency cepstrum (MFC) data versus the log-power spectrum data and also with training data in a single session versus in plural ones. It is shown that dPLRM with the log-power spectrum data is competitive with SVM and GMM methods with MFC data, when trained for the combined data collected in the earlier three sessions. dPLRM outperforms GMM method especially as the amount of training data becomes smaller. Some of these findings have been already reported in [1]-[3].
