Comparison of various feature decorrelation techniques in automatic speech recognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
The design of an optimum front-end module for an automatic speech recognition system is still a great effort of many research teams all over the world. Prepared paper wants to contribute partly to these discussions. It is especially aimed at feature decorrelation techniques based on Maximum Linear Likelihood Transform (MLLT) applied at a different level of matrix clustering. Also the comparison of the MLLT with other decorrelation techniques will be discussed.

Abstract Recent developments in robotics automation have motivated researchers to improve the efficiency of interactive systems by making a natural man-machine interaction. Since speech is the most popular method of communication, recognizing human emotions from speech signal becomes a challenging research topic known as Speech Emotion Recognition (SER). In this study, we propose a Persian em...
متن کاملA comparative study of linear feature transformation techniques for automatic speech recognition
Although widely used, there are still open questions concerning which properties of Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA) do account for its success in many speech recognition systems. In order to gain more insight into the nature of the transformation we compare LDA with mel-cepstral feature vectors with respect to the following criteria: decorrelation and ordering property, invariance under line...

متن کاملImproving the performance of MFCC for Persian robust speech recognition
The Mel Frequency cepstral coefficients are the most widely used feature in speech recognition but they are very sensitive to noise. In this paper to achieve a satisfactorily performance in Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) applications we introduce a noise robust new set of MFCC vector estimated through following steps. First, spectral mean normalization is a pre-processing which applies to t...
