Attacking the problem of continuous speech segmentation into basic units
The paper considers the algorithm of continuous speech segmentation into basic units, namely phonemes, certain combination of phonemes and pauses. The algorithm is based on speech signal transformation into a two-dimensional image, i.e. an autocorrelation portrait. To determine the boundaries of speech units the portraits of the analyzed signal are aligned with the model portraits of each speec...
متن کاملUsing formant frequencies in speech recognition
Formant frequencies have rarely been used as acoustic features for speech recognition, in spite of their phonetic significance. For some speech sounds one or more of the formants may be so badly defined that it is not useful to attempt a frequency measurement. Also, it is often difficult to decide which formant labels to attach to particular spectral peaks. This paper describes a new method of ...
متن کاملVowel onset point detection for noisy speech using spectral energy at formant frequencies
In this paper, we propose a method for robust detection of the vowel onset points (VOPs) from noisy speech. The proposed VOP detection method exploits the spectral energy at formant frequencies of the speech segments present in glottal closure region. In this work, formants are extracted by using group delay function, and glottal closure instants are extracted by using zero frequency filter bas...
متن کاملWord segmentation in Persian continuous speech using F0 contour
Word segmentation in continuous speech is a complex cognitive process. Previous research on spoken word segmentation has revealed that in fixed-stress languages, listeners use acoustic cues to stress to de-segment speech into words. It has been further assumed that stress in non-final or non-initial position hinders the demarcative function of this prosodic factor. In Persian, stress is retract...
متن کاملSpotting Multilingual Consonant-Vowel Units of Speech Using Neural Network Models
Multilingual speech recognition system is required for tasks that use several languages in one speech recognition application. In this paper, we propose an approach for multilingual speech recognition by spotting consonant-vowel (CV) units. The important features of spotting approach are that there is no need for automatic segmentation of speech and it is not necessary to use models for higher ...
