Constraint satisfaction model for enhancement of evidence in recognition of consonant-vowel utterances

چکیده
isfaction neural network (CSNN) model developed for In this paper, we address the issues in recognition of a large number of subword units of speech with high confusability among several units. Evidence available from the classification models trained with a limited number of training examples may not be strong to correctly recognize the subword units. We present a constraint satisfaction neural network model that can be used to enhance the evidence for a particular unit with the supporting evidence available for a subset of units confusable with that unit. We demonstrate the enhancement of evidence by the proposed model in recognition of utterances of 145 consonant-vowel units.

A constraint satisfaction model for recognition of stop consonant-vowel (SCV) utterances
In this paper, we propose a model for recognition of utterances of consonant–vowel (CV) units. The acoustic–phonetic knowledge of the CV classes is incorporated in the form of constraints of a constraint satisfaction model. The model combines evidence from multiple classifiers. The significant feature of this model is that discrimination of the CV units could be enhanced by a combination of eve...

متن کاملThe intelligibility of consonants in no sequences when the vowels are
The performance of speech enhancement algorithms deteriorates rapidly with decreasing signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). At a low SNR, high intensity phonemes such as vowels are therefore more likely to be enhanced than low intensity speech segments such as many consonants. Although the selective enhancement of vowels enhances transitional cues for consonant recognition, it simultaneously degrades re...

In this study, recognition rates of consonants available in vowel-consonant-vowel structure in hearing tests and two microscopic models will be investigated. Such a syllable structure doesn’t exist in Farsi and Azerbaijani languages, but since the goal is only recognition of middle phoneme, according to hearing tests, listeners are able to properly recognize phonemes in clean speech conditions....
متن کاملAssimilation of Final Low Back Vowel in Eghlidian Dialect
In this article, the low back vowel /A/ in word-final positions in Eghlidian dialect, one of Persian dialects, is studied. This vowel is represented phonetically as [A], [o] and [@] in different phonetic environments. Therefore many words were collected via interviewing ten native speakers so that these different alternant forms can be accounted for appropriately. Since one of the authors of th...
