It is well known that frame independence assumption is a fundamental limitation of current HMM based speech recognition systems. By treating each speech frame independently, HMMs ...
Automatic speech recognition (ASR) has reached very high levels of performance in controlled situations. However, the performance degrades significantly when environmental noise ...
Recently various techniques to improve the correlation model of feature vector elements in speech recognition systems have been proposed. Such techniques include semi-tied covaria...
In this paper, we present our work using ultrasonic sensing of speech for digit recognition. First, a set of spectral ultrasonic features are developed and tuned in order to achie...
In this paper, we investigate the acoustic properties of phonemes in three speaking styles: read speech, prepared speech and spontaneous speech. Our aim is to better understand wh...
