Automatic Blind Syllable Segmentation for Continuous Speech
In this paper a simple practical method for blind segmentation of continuous speech into its constituent syllables is presented. This technique which uses amplitude onset velocity and coarse spectral makeup to identify syllable boundaries is tested on a corpus of continuous speech and compared with an established segmentation algorithm. The results show substantial performance benefit using the...
متن کاملSyllable-based large vocabulary continuous speech recognition
Most large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) systems in the past decade have used a context-dependent phone as the fundamental acoustic unit. In this paper, we present one of the first robust LVCSR systems that uses a syllable-level acoustic unit for LVCSR on telephone-bandwidth speech. This effort is motivated by the inherent limitations in phone-based approaches — namely the la...
متن کاملSyllable detection in read and spontaneous speech
Automatic syllable detection is an important task when analysing very large speech corpora in order to answer questions concerning prosody, rhythm, speech rate, speech recognition and synthesis. In this paper a new method for automatic detection of syllable nuclei is presented. Two large spoken language corpora (PhonDatII, Verbmobil) were labelled by three phoneticians and then used to adjust t...
متن کاملSyllable-Length Acoustic Units in Large-Vocabulary Continuous Speech Recognition
Recent research on the TIMIT corpus suggests that longerlength acoustic units are better suited for modelling coarticulation and long-term temporal dependencies in speech than conventional context-dependent phone models. However, the impressive results achieved on TIMIT [1] are yet to be reproduced on other corpora, such as read speech from the Spoken Dutch Corpus. Differences between TIMIT and...
متن کاملA syllable based continuous speech recognizer for Tamil
This paper presents a novel technique for building a syllable based continuous speech recognizer when unannotated transcribed train data is available. We present two different segmentation algorithms to segment the speech and the corresponding text into comparable syllable like units. A group delay based two level segmentation algorithm is proposed to extract accurate syllable units from the sp...
