Due to progress in technology of speech recognition and understanding, the Spoken dialogue systems (SDS) have started to emerge as a practical alternative for a conversational computer interface. They are more effective than Interactive Voice Response (IVR) systems since they allow a more free and natural interaction. The Spoken dialogue systems are designed for providing automatic dialogue-bas...

Today authentication is the important one to improve the security in various applications Here the proposed system uses three steps to allow the process that is initially enter the password and then give the voice as the input using the arduino microcontroller it verifies the voice and then iris identification of the user. The user has to follow these steps and then only permit to continue the ...

The proposed paper presents the design and implementation of a wireless home automation system with acoustic controlling. In this system, one voice recognition module has been added to the wireless network. The automation process will be done using recognition of voice commands and the Radio Frequency technology. The voice commands in this system are person independent. The proposed system has ...

Soliciting and incorporating employee voice is essential to organizational performance, yet some managers display a strong aversion to improvement-oriented input from subordinates. To help to explain this maladaptive tendency, we tested the hypothesis that managers with low managerial self-efficacy (that is, low perceived ability to meet the elevated competence expectations associated with mana...

When video is shot in noisy environment, the voice of a speaker seen in the video can be enhanced using the visible mouth movements, reducing background noise. While most existing methods use audio-only inputs, improved performance is obtained with our visual speech enhancement, based on an audio-visual neural network. We add to the training data videos with synthetic background noise taken fro...

The purpose of this article is to study the heat transfer characteristics of a voice-coil and permanent magnet for a speaker using nano-sized ferrofluid. In order to investigate the temperature characteristics of the speaker, the speaker power ratings, ambient temperatures of the test chamber, chamber sizes and input signals were tested. As a result, the temperatures of the voice-coil and magne...

The objective of this study is to numerically investigate the temperature and heat transfer characteristics of the voice coil for a woofer with and without bobbins using the thermal equivalent heat conduction models. The temperature and heat transfer characteristics of the main components of the woofer were analyzed with input powers ranging from 5 W to 60 W. The numerical results of the voice ...

Since a high toxicity of cyanide which use as a reagent in the gold processing plant, thiosulfate has been recognized as a environmental friendly reagent for leaching of gold from ore. After gold leaching process it's important for recovery of gold from solution using adsorption or extraction methods, One of these methods is activated carbon.The loading of gold from industrial thiosulfate solut...

BACKGROUND Auditory hallucinations are frequently conceptualized as a disorder of input, whereby random discharges in language-related cortical areas lead to sensory irritations that mimic real voices. Alternatively, auditory hallucinations may represent a disorder of interpretation, whereby none of its four prevalent characteristics (the "four A's of hallucinations": acoustic, alien (i.e., app...

This paper describes a robust speech documents retrieval system that uses voice input keywords. To solve the inevitable problems which arise when the input to the system is speech, i.e. misrecognition, a novel method was developed, where, before the retrieval processing, unproductive keyword candidates are discarded by a grouping processing using the similarity between words and the recognition...
