The Philips Research System for Continuous - Speech Recognition

چکیده
This paper gives an overviewof the Philips Research system for continuousspeech recognition. The recognition architecture is based on an integrated statistical approach. The system has been successfully applied to various tasks in American English and German, ranging from small vocabulary tasks to very large vocabulary tasks and from recognition only to speech understanding. Here, we concentrate on phoneme-based continuousspeech recognition for large vocabulary recognition as used for dictation, which covers a significant part of our research work on speech recognition. We describe this task and report on experimental results. In order to allow a comparison with the performance of other systems, a section with an evaluation on the standard North American Business news (NAB2) task (dictation of American English newspaper text) is supplied.

Improved Bayesian Training for Context-Dependent Modeling in Continuous Persian Speech Recognition
Context-dependent modeling is a widely used technique for better phone modeling in continuous speech recognition. While different types of context-dependent models have been used, triphones have been known as the most effective ones. In this paper, a Maximum a Posteriori (MAP) estimation approach has been used to estimate the parameters of the untied triphone model set used in data-driven clust...
متن کاملSpeaker 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...
