Confidence measures for hybrid HMM/ANN speech recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper we introduce four acoustic confidence measures which are derived from the output of a hybrid HMM/ANN large vocabulary continuous speech recognition system. These confidence measures, based on local posterior probability estimates computed by an ANN, are evaluated at both phone and word levels, using the North American Business News corpus.

Improving posterior based confidence measures in hybrid HMM/ANN speech recognition systems
In this paper, building upon previous work by others [7], we define and investigate a set of confidence measures based on hybrid Hidden Markov Model/Artificial Neural Network (HMM/ANN) acoustic models. All these measures are using the neural network to estimate the local phone posterior probabilities, which are then combined and normalized in different ways. Experimental results will indeed sho...
متن کاملHybrid HMM/Neural Network based Speech Recognition in Loquendo ASR
This paper describes hybrid Hidden Markov Models / Artificial Neural Networks (HMM/ANN) models devoted to speech recognition, and in particular Loquendo HMM/ANN, that is the core of Loquendo ASR. While Hidden Markov Models (HMM) is a dominant approach in most state-of-the-art speaker-independent, continuous speech recognition systems (and commercial products), Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) a...
متن کاملConfidence Measures for Evaluating Pronunciation Models
In this paper, we investigate the use of confidence measures for the evaluation of pronunciation models and the employment of these evaluations in an automatic baseform learning process. The confidence measures and pronunciation models are obtained from the ABBOT hybrid Hidden Markov Model/Artificial Neural Network (HMM/ANN) Large Vocabulary Continuous Speech Recognition (LVCSR) system [8]. Exp...
متن کاملMyanmar Language Speech Recognition with Hybrid Artificial Neural Network and Hidden Markov Model
There are many artificial intelligence approaches used in the development of Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), hybrid approach is one of them. The common hybrid method in speech recognition is the combination of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Hidden Markov Model (HMM). The hybrid ANN/HMM is able to classify the phoneme model and to combine the strength of HMM in sequential modeling struc...
