Automatic speech recognition of non-native speakers using consonant-vowel-consonant (CVC) words
In this study we investigate whether non-native speakers using a speech recognition system would benefit from phone models of their own native language. For Dutch as the target recognition language, we found that American speakers do not in general benefit from American English models when speaking Dutch. However, using a CVC test methodology, we can conclude that for a certain level of profici...
متن کاملA Romanian Corpus for Speech Perception and Automatic Speech Recognition
A speech corpus is available in Romanian to use as the common material in speech perception and automatic speech recognition. It consists of high-quality audio of 400 sentences spoken by each of 12 speakers. Utterances are simple, syntactically identical phrases such as “muta bronz cu p 2 agale.” Preliminary intelligibility tests using the audio signals suggest that the collected speech is easi...
متن کاملEffects of expansion on consonant recognition and consonant audibility.
BACKGROUND Hearing aid expansion is intended to reduce the gain for low-level noise. However, expansion can also degrade low-intensity speech. Although it has been suggested that the poorer performance with expansion is due to reduced audibility, this has not been measured directly. Furthermore, previous studies used relatively high expansion kneepoints. PURPOSE This study compared the effect...
متن کاملAutomatic Face Recognition via Local Directional Patterns
Automatic facial recognition has many potential applications in different areas of humancomputer interaction. However, they are not yet fully realized due to the lack of an effectivefacial feature descriptor. In this paper, we present a new appearance based feature descriptor,the local directional pattern (LDP), to represent facial geometry and analyze its performance inrecognition. An LDP feat...
متن کاملAutomatic Diacritics Insertion in Romanian Texts
The problem of automatic insertion of diacritics into an electronic text is well justified for several languages. Even if the diacritical characters concerned are present in the extended 8-bit ASCII charset (as the case is with French) any 7-bit filtering transmission of such a text will corrupt it. The situation is even worse when the diacritic characters are not in the 8-bit ASCII charset. To...
