Speech Interfaces: Session Introduction
نویسنده
چکیده
II CURRENT TECHNOLOGY The speech interface is the natural one for the human user and is beginning to be used in a limited way in many applications. Some of these applications are experimental; still others have achieved the status of cost-effective utility. A brief summary of the current state-of-the-art of speech input and output are presented. The two papers in the session represent specific examples of current work. Some comments on the need for linguistically oriented development conclude the

Session-independent EMG-based Speech Recognition
This paper reports on our recent research in speech recognition by surface electromyography (EMG), which is the technology of recording the electric activation potentials of the human articulatory muscles by surface electrodes in order to recognize speech. This method can be used to create Silent Speech Interfaces, since the EMG signal is available even when no audible signal is transmitted or ...
متن کاملIntroduction to speech recognition using neural networks
As an introduction to a session dedicated to neural networks in speech processing, this paper describes the basic problems faced with in automatic speech recognition (ASR). Representation of speech, classi cation problems, speech unit models, training procedures and criteria are discussed. Why and how neural networks lead to challenging results in ASR is explained.
متن کاملSpecial Session: Issues in a Language Processing (whe
The many aspects of audiovisual (AV) speech processing have attracted a loyal following from a wide range of perspectives and disciplines. Beginning with the landmark NATO workshop in 1995 [50], a series of international special sessions and meetings has fostered the development of numerous lines of AV speech research. This paper is an introduction to the special session and an inventory of sev...
متن کاملThe Impact of Auditory Embodiment on Animated Character Design
Advances in speech recognition and text-to-speech (TTS) technologies recently have contributed to the development of conversational interfaces that incorporate animated characters. These interfaces potentially are well suited for educational software, since they can engage children as active learners and support question asking skills. In the present research, a simulation study was conducted i...
متن کاملINTERSPEECH 2014 Special Session: Phase Importance in Speech Processing Applications
In many speech processing applications, the spectral amplitude is the dominant information while the use of phase spectrum is not so widely spread. In this paper, we present an overview on why speech phase spectrum has been neglected in the conventional techniques used in different applications including: speech separation/enhancement, automatic speech and speaker recognition and speech synthes...
