چکیده

Development of Malayalam speech recognition system is in its infancy stage; although many works have been done in other Indian languages. In this paper we present the first work on speaker independent Malayalam isolated speech recognizer based on PLP (Perceptual Linear Predictive) Cepstral Coefficient and Hidden Markov Model (HMM). The performance of the developed system has been evaluated with different number of states of HMM (Hidden Markov Model). The system is trained with 21 male and female speakers in the age group ranging from 19 to 41 years. The system obtained an accuracy of 99.5% with the unseen data.

Optimization of Features Parameters for HMM Phoneme Recognition of TIMIT Corpus

Phoneme is the smallest contrastive unit in the sound system of a language. Moreover, it has a meaningful role in speech recognition. In this study, we are interesting for phonemes recognition of Timit database using HTK toolkit for HMM. The main goal is to determine the optimal parameters for the recognizer. For this reason, different speech analysis techniques were operated such as Mel Freque...

Performance Evaluation of Front-end Processing for Speech Recognition Systems

Conventional speech feature extraction front-end algorithms suffer severe performance degradation in noisy environment, especially when there is a noise level mismatch between the training and testing environments. It is necessary to search for new feature extraction algorithms, which perform better than the convention methods in adverse conditions. In our literature survey, two recently develo...

Effect of states and mixtures in HMM model and Connected word Recognition of Profoundly deaf and hard of hearing speech

It is a challenge for many years that how to fix the no. of states and no. of mixtures when HMM models are used for speech recognition. In this paper we have analysed that for hearing impaired speech that is partially intelligible to people who are speaking to them frequently and it is not understandable by the unfamiliar listeners. They suffer in many aspects like education and in public place...
