Acoustic modeling based on a generalized laplacian distribution
نویسندگان
چکیده
In speech recognition, acoustic modeling mismatches for the shapes of distributions are unavoidable when we use fixed-shape base distributions, such as the Gaussian. This paper proposes a new base distribution called the "generalized Laplacian distribution (GLD)", which offers more flexibility in terms of the distribution shape. The effectiveness of the GLD-based modeling is proven through speech recognition experiments.

Optimum decoder for multiplicative spread spectrum image watermarking with Laplacian modeling
This paper investigates the multiplicative spread spectrum watermarking method for the image. The information bit is spreaded into middle-frequency Discrete Cosine Transform (DCT) coefficients of each block of an image using a generated pseudo-random sequence. Unlike the conventional signal modeling, we suppose that both signal and noise are distributed with Laplacian distribution, because the ...
متن کاملSpeech Probability Distribution based on Generalized Gamma Distribution
In this paper, we propose a new speech probability distribution, two-sided generalized gamma distribution (GΓD) for an efficient parametric characterization of speech spectra. GΓD forms a generalized class of parametric distributions including the Gaussian, Laplacian and Gamma probability density functions (pdf’s) as special cases. All the parameters associated with the GΓD are estimated by the...

This paper concerns with the modeling and construction of a fifth order method for two dimensional acoustic wave equation in heterogenous media. The method is based on a standard discretization of the problem on smooth regions and a nonstandard method for nonsmooth regions. The construction of the nonstandard method is based on the special treatment of the interface using suitable jump conditio...

متن کاملStatistical Modeling for Oblique Collision of Nano and Micro Droplets in Plasma Spray Processes
Spreading and coating of nano and micro droplets on solid surfaces is important in a wide variety of applications including plasma spray coating, ink jet printing, DNA synthesis and etc. In spraying processes, most of droplets collide obliquely to the surface. The purpose of this article is to study the distribution of nano and micro droplets spreading when droplets impact at an oblique a...
