In this paper we present a study of automatic speech recognition systems using context-dependent phonemes and graphemes as sub-word units based on the conventional HMM/GMM system a...
We propose a system that is capable of improving intelligibility of speech by those with hearing impairment. We have found the speech often had problems in the intonation, the dur...
