چکیده

A solution to the problem of speech recognition with signals corrupted by coders is presented. The coding-decoding distortion is modelled as feature dependent. This model is employed to propose an unsupervised expectationmaximization (EM) estimation algorithm of the coding–decoding distortion that is able to cancel the effect of coders with as few as one adapting utterance. No knowledge about the coder is required. The feature-dependent adaptation can give a word error rate (WER) 21% lower than the feature-independent model. Finally, when compared to the baseline system, the reduction in WER can be as high as 70%.

روشی جدید در بازشناسی مقاوم گفتار مبتنی بر دادگان مفقود با استفاده از شبکه عصبی دوسویه

Performance of speech recognition systems is greatly reduced when speech corrupted by noise. One common method for robust speech recognition systems is missing feature methods. In this way, the components in time - frequency representation of signal (Spectrogram) that present low signal to noise ratio (SNR), are tagged as missing and deleted then replaced by remained components and statistical ...

Persian Phone Recognition Using Acoustic Landmarks and Neural Network-based variability compensation methods

Speech recognition is a subfield of artificial intelligence that develops technologies to convert speech utterance into transcription. So far, various methods such as hidden Markov models and artificial neural networks have been used to develop speech recognition systems. In most of these systems, the speech signal frames are processed uniformly, while the information is not evenly distributed ...

Improving of Feature Selection in Speech Emotion Recognition Based-on Hybrid Evolutionary Algorithms

One of the important issues in speech emotion recognizing is selecting of appropriate feature sets in order to improve the detection rate and classification accuracy. In last studies researchers tried to select the appropriate features for classification by using the selecting and reducing the space of features methods, such as the Fisher and PCA. In this research, a hybrid evolutionary algorit...

Sun-Yuan Kung, Speaker Verification from Coded Telephone Speech Using Stochastic Feature Transformation and Handset Identification

A handset compensation technique for speaker verification from coded telephone speech is proposed. The proposed technique combines handset selectors with stochastic feature transformation to reduce the acoustic mismatch between different handsets and different speech coders. Coder-dependent GMM-based handset selectors are trained to identify the most likely handset used by the claimants. Stocha...
