AbstractNowadays, biometric data is the most common used data in the field of security. Audio signals are one of these biometric data. Voice signals have used frequently in cases such as identification, banking systems, and forensic cases solution. The aim of this study is to determine the gender of voice signals. In the study, many different methods were used to determine the gender of voice signals. Firstly, Mel Frequency kepstrum coefficients were used to extract the feature from the audio signal. Subsequently, these attributes were classified with support vector machines, k-nearest neighborhood method and artificial neural networks. At the other stage of the study, it is aimed to determine gender from audio signals without using feature extraction method. For this, recurrent neural networks (RNN) was used. The performance analyzes of the methods used were made and the results were given. The best accuracy, precision, recall, f-score in the study has found to be 87.04%, 86.32%, 88.58%, 87.43% using K-Nearest-Neighbor algorithm.
