چکیده

We have developed a real-time system to transform an audio signal into several specialized representations of sound. The system uses analog circuit models of biological audition to compute these representations. We report on a speech recognizer that uses this system for feature extraction, and we evaluate the performance of this speech recognition system on a speaker-independent 13-word recognition task.

Correlation between Auditory Spectral Resolution and Speech Perception in Children with Cochlear Implants

Background: Variability in speech performance is a major concern for children with cochlear implants (CIs). Spectral resolution is an important acoustic component in speech perception. Considerable variability and limitations of spectral resolution in children with CIs may lead to individual differences in speech performance. The aim of this study was to assess the correlation between auditory ...

Modeling of three types of auditory nerve and its application in speech recognition

A novel auditory nerve model is described here which simulates the three types of auditory nerves existing in the auditory system. The inspiration of the model is the absence of the simulation of the different types of auditory nerves in current auditory models. Based on the previous work, three sub-models replace the prevailing single auditory nerve discharge model in the common peripheral aud...

Persian Phone Recognition Using Acoustic Landmarks and Neural Network-based variability compensation methods

Speech recognition is a subfield of artificial intelligence that develops technologies to convert speech utterance into transcription. So far, various methods such as hidden Markov models and artificial neural networks have been used to develop speech recognition systems. In most of these systems, the speech signal frames are processed uniformly, while the information is not evenly distributed ...

Properties of Auditory Model Representations

We address the problem of robustness of auditory models as front ends for speech recognition. Auditory models have been referred as superior front ends when speech is corrupted by noise or linear filtering, but there is not yet a deep understanding of its functioning. We analyze some commonly used auditory models and show that they present some interesting properties which are useful for robust...

Effects of ageing on speed and temporal resolution of speech stimuli in older adults

 Background: According to previous studies, most of the speech recognition disorders in older adults are the results of deficits in audibility and auditory temporal resolution. In this paper, the effect of ageing on timecompressed speech and auditory temporal resolution by word recognition in continuous and interrupted noise was studied. Methods: A time-compressed speech test (TCST) w...
