چکیده

Automatic speech recognition systems apply grapheme-to phoneme transcription (G2P) to model pronunciation of items in the lexicon. General purpose G2P transcriptions are not always accurate, e.g., in a multilingual environment. To improve the transcription quality, G2P transcriptions can be postprocessed using a phoneme-to-phoneme (P2P) converter. This paper discusses the applicability of P2P technology based on results of a speech recognition experiment using P2P conversion on a multilingual speech corpus. P2P conversion can be applied successfully, however the analysis also shows limitations of P2P technology.

Allophone-based acoustic modeling for Persian phoneme recognition

Phoneme recognition is one of the fundamental phases of automatic speech recognition. Coarticulation which refers to the integration of sounds, is one of the important obstacles in phoneme recognition. In other words, each phone is influenced and changed by the characteristics of its neighbor phones, and coarticulation is responsible for most of these changes. The idea of modeling the effects o...

Phoneme Classification Using Temporal Tracking of Speech Clusters in Spectro-temporal Domain

This article presents a new feature extraction technique based on the temporal tracking of clusters in spectro-temporal features space. In the proposed method, auditory cortical outputs were clustered. The attributes of speech clusters were extracted as secondary features. However, the shape and position of speech clusters change during the time. The clusters temporally tracked and temporal tra...

In the present paper, the phonological feature geometry of the Persian phonemes is analyzed in the form of articulate-free and articulate-bound features based on the articulator model of the nonlinear phonology. Then, the reference phonetic pattern of each feature that consists of one or a set of acoustic correlates, characterized by the quantitative or qualitative values in its phonological re...
