Ideally, the system aims to create one pure cluster for each speaker. The HMM is ergodic in nature with a minimum duration topology. The final number of clusters is determined automatically by merging closest clusters and retraining this new cluster, until a decrease in likelihood is observed. In the same framework, we also examine the effect of using only the features from highly voiced frames as a means of improving the robustness and computational complexity of the algorithm. The proposed system is assessed on the 1996 HUB-4 evaluation test set in terms of both cluster and speaker purity. It is shown that the number of clusters found often correspond to the actual number of speakers.},
