Using 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 کاملModelling Speech Signals using Formant Frequencies as an Intermediate Representation
This paper concerns Multiple-level Segmental HiddenMarkov Models (M-SHMMs) in which the relationship between symbolic and acoustic representations of speech is regulated by a formant-based intermediate representation. New TIMIT phone recognition results are presented, confirming that the theoretical upper-bound on performance is achieved provided that either the intermediate representation or t...
متن کاملVerification of Acousical Correlates of Emotional Speech using Formant− Synthesis
This paper explores the perceptual relevance of acoustical correlates of emotional speech by means of speech synthesis. Besides, the research aims at the development of »emotion− rules« which enable an optimized speech synthesis system to generate emotional speech. Two investigations using this synthesizer are described: 1) the systematic variation of selec− ted acoustical features to gain a pr...

متن کاملUsing Dialog Corrections to Improve Speech Recognition
We propose a preliminary method for automatically correcting errors in spoken dialogue systems1. Current spoken dialogue systems usually show a rather static and rigid behavior regarding recognition errors, therefore a feasible method of correcting system errors might be helpful to successfully support user requests. Moreover, a correction differs from non-correction prosodically [1]. Generally...
