Mixture autoregressive hidden Markov models for speech signals

In this paper a signal modeling technique based upon finite mixture autoregressive probabilistic functions of Markov chains is developed and applied to the problem of speech recognition, particularly speaker-independent recognition of isolated digits. Two types of mixture probability densities are investigated: finite mixtures of Gaussian autoregressive densities (GAM) and nearest-neighbor part...

Improving Phoneme Sequence Recognition using Phoneme Duration Information in DNN-HSMM

Improving phoneme recognition has attracted the attention of many researchers due to its applications in various fields of speech processing. Recent research achievements show that using deep neural network (DNN) in speech recognition systems significantly improves the performance of these systems. There are two phases in DNN-based phoneme recognition systems including training and testing. Mos...

Connectionist Approaches to the Use of Markov Models for Speech Recognition

Previous work has shown the ability of Multilayer Perceptrons (MLPs) to estimate emission probabilities for Hidden Markov Models (HMMs). The advantages of a speech recognition system incorporating both MLPs and HMMs are the best discrimination and the ability to incorporate multiple sources of evidence (features, temporal context) without restrictive assumptions of distributions or statistical ...
