A comparison of speaker clustering and speech recognition techniques for air situational awareness
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we compare speaker clustering and speech recognition techniques to the problem of understanding patterns of air traffic control communications. For a given radio transmission, our goal is to identify the talker and to whom he/she is speaking. This information, in combination with knowledge of the the roles (i.e. takeoff, approach, hand-off, taxi, etc.) of different radio frequencies within an air traffic control region could allow tracking of pilots through various stages of flight, thus providing the potential to monitor the airspace in great detail. Both techniques must contend with degraded audio channels and significant non-native accents. We report results from experiments using the nn-MATC database [6] showing 9.3% and 32.6% clustering error for speaker clustering and ASR methods respectively.

Speaker Adaptation in Continuous Speech Recognition Using MLLR-Based MAP Estimation
A variety of methods are used for speaker adaptation in speech recognition. In some techniques, such as MAP estimation, only the models with available training data are updated. Hence, large amounts of training data are required in order to have significant recognition improvements. In some others, such as MLLR, where several general transformations are applied to model clusters, the results ar...

A Comparative Study of Gender and Age Classification in Speech Signals
Accurate gender classification is useful in speech and speaker recognition as well as speech emotion classification, because a better performance has been reported when separate acoustic models are employed for males and females. Gender classification is also apparent in face recognition, video summarization, human-robot interaction, etc. Although gender classification is rather mature in a...

Although, speech recognition systems are widely used and their accuracies are continuously increased, there is a considerable performance gap between their accuracies and human recognition ability. This is partially due to high speaker variations in speech signal. Deep neural networks are among the best tools for acoustic modeling. Recently, using hybrid deep neural network and hidden Markov mo...
