A device for voice identification including a receiver, a segmenter, a resolver, two advancers, a buffer, and a plurality of IIR resonator digital filters where each IIR filter comprises a set of memory locations or functional equivalent to hold filter specifications, a memory location or functional equivalent to hold the arithmetic reciprocal of the filter's gain, a five cell controller array, several multipliers, an adder, a subtractor, and a logical non-shift register. Each cell of the five cell controller array has five logical states, each acting as a five-position single-pole rotating switch that operates in unison with the four others. Additionally, the device also includes an artificial neural network and a display means.
