Robust entropy-based endpoint detection for speech recognition in noisy environments
This paper presents an entropy-based algorithm for accurate and robust endpoint detection for speech recognition under noisy environments. Instead of using the conventional energy-based features, the spectral entropy is developed to identify the speech segments accurately. Experimental results show that this algorithm outperforms the energy-based algorithms in both detection accuracy and recogn...
متن کاملAn Improved Entropy-based Endpoint Detection Algorithm
It is found that the detection using basic spectral entropy becomes difficult and inaccurate when speech signals are contaminated by high noise. This paper presents an improved entropy-based algorithm. The way to compute spectral probability density function of entropy is altered by the introduction of a positive constant. The modification improves the discriminability between speech and noise ...
متن کاملSpeech Endpoint Detection Based on High Order Statistics
For automatic speech recognition, endpoint detection is required to isolate the speech of interest so as to be able to create a speech pattern or template. The process of separating the speech segments of an utterance from the nonspeech segments obtained during the recording process is called endpoint detection. In this paper, we present new endpoint detection algorithm based on high order stat...
متن کاملAn effective cluster-based model for robust speech detection and speech recognition in noisy environments.
This paper shows an accurate speech detection algorithm for improving the performance of speech recognition systems working in noisy environments. The proposed method is based on a hard decision clustering approach where a set of prototypes is used to characterize the noisy channel. Detecting the presence of speech is enabled by a decision rule formulated in terms of an averaged distance betwee...
متن کاملSpeech Recognition in Noisy Environments
The accuracy of speech recognition systems degrades severely when the systems are operated in adverse acoustical environments. In recent years many approaches have been developed to address the problem of robust speech recognition, using feature-normalization algorithms, microphone arrays, representations based on human hearing, and other approaches. Nevertheless, to date the improvement in rec...
