This paper investigates using Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM) based vowel duration features for automated assessment of non-native speech. Two different types of models were compared...
Sign language recognition constitutes a challenging field of research in computer vision. Common problems like overlap, ambiguities, and minimal pairs occur frequently and require...
Model compensation is a standard way of improving the robustness of speech recognition systems to noise. A number of popular schemes are based on vector Taylor series (vts) compen...
