This paper describes a simple method for significantly improving Tandem features used to train acoustic models for large-vocabulary speech recognition. The linear activations at ...
Unvoiced speech poses a big challenge to current monaural speech segregation systems. It lacks harmonic structure and is highly susceptible to interference due to its relatively w...
A principal problem in speech recognition is distinguishing between words and phrases that sound similar but have different meanings. Speech recognition programs produce a list of...
