Enhancing Data-Driven Phone Confusions Using Restricted Recognition
This paper presents a novel approach to address data sparseness in standard confusion matrices and demonstrates how enhanced matrices, which capture additional similarities, can impact the performance of spoken term detection. Using the same training data as for the standard phone confusion matrix, an enhanced confusion matrix is created by iteratively restricting the recognition process to exc...
متن کاملBio-inspired Broad-class Phonetic Labelling
Recent studies have shown that the correct labeling of phonetic classes may help current Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) when combined with classical parsing automata based on Hidden Markov Models (HMM). Through the present paper a method for Phonetic Class Labeling (PCL) based on bio-inspired speech processing is described. The methodology is based in the automatic detection of formants and...
متن کاملThe use of broad phonetic class models in speaker recognition
In this paper we investigate the use of broad phonetic class (BPC) models in a text independent speaker recognition task. These models can be used to bring down the variability due to the intrinsic differences between mutual phonetic classes in the speech material used for training of the speaker models. Combining BPC recognition with text independent speaker recognition moves a bit in the dire...
متن کاملAutomatic Syllable Segmentation Using Broad Phonetic Class Information
We propose in this paper a language-independent method for syllable segmentation. The method is based on the Sonority Sequencing Principle, by which the sonority inside a syllable increases from its boundaries towards the syllabic nucleus. The sonority function employed was derived from the posterior probabilities of a broad phonetic class recognizer, trained with data coming from an open-sourc...
