Landmark detection for distinctive feature-based speech recognition
This work is a component of a proposed knowledge-based speech recognition system which uses landmarks to guide the search for distinctive features. In the speech signal, landmarks identify times when the acoustic manifestations of the linguistically motivated distinctive features are most salient. This paper describes an algorithm for automatically detecting acoustically abrupt landmarks. Some ...
متن کاملConsonant landmark detection for speech recognition
This thesis focuses on the detection of abrupt acoustic discontinuities in the speech signal, which constitute landmarks for consonant sounds. Because a large amount of phonetic information is concentrated near acoustic discontinuities, more focused speech analysis and recognition can be performed based on the landmarks. Three types of consonant landmarks are defined according to its characteri...
متن کاملUnvoiced Landmark Detection for Segment-based Mandarin Continuous Speech Recognition
This paper presents an attempt to introduce unvoiced landmarks into statistical continuous speech recognition system. The unvoiced landmark detection algorithm proposed here locates the points in speech where the vocal folds stop or begin freely vibrating. In our experiments, 87.47% of stops and 98.94% of fricatives are segmented from speech after the unvoiced landmark detection, with a very lo...
متن کاملModeling the temporal dynamics of distinctive feature landmark detectors for speech recognition.
This paper elaborates on a computational model for speech recognition that is inspired by several interrelated strands of research in phonology, acoustic phonetics, speech perception, and neuroscience. The goals are twofold: (i) to explore frameworks for recognition that may provide a viable alternative to the current hidden Markov model (HMM) based speech recognition systems and (ii) to provid...
متن کاملLandmark-Guided Segmental Speech Decoding for Continuous Mandarin Speech Recognition
In this paper, we propose a framework that attempts to incorporate landmarks into a segment-based Mandarin speech recognition system. In this method, landmarks provide boundary information and phonetic class information, and the information is used to direct the decoding process. To prove the validity of this method, two kinds of landmarks that can be reliably detected are used to direct the de...
