Speaker independent speech recognition method using constrained time alignment near phoneme discriminative frame
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present constrained time alignment acoustic models based on phonetic knowledge and a speaker independent speech recognition method using our proposed models. Japanese syllable and isolated word recognition experiments show that the models have robustness to intraand interspeaker varieties such as acoustic diversity. Furthermore we experiment with word recognition tests under the condition such as noise environments and endpoints free matching, it reveals the feasibility of our proposed models.

Text-Independent Speaker Verification via State Alignment
To model the speech utterance at a finer granularity, this paper presents a novel state-alignment based supervector modeling method for text-independent speaker verification, which takes advantage of state-alignment method used in hidden Markov model (HMM) based acoustic modeling in speech recognition. By this way, the proposed modeling method can convert a text-independent speaker verification...
متن کاملDesigning a Speaker-discrim Filter Bank for Speake
A new filter bank approach for speaker recognition front-end is proposed. The conventional mel-scaled filter bank is replaced with a speaker-discriminative filter bank. Filter bank is selected from a library in adaptive basis, based on the broad phoneme class of the input frame. Each phoneme class is associated with its own filter bank. Each filter bank is designed in a way that emphasizes disc...
متن کاملSABR: sparse, anchor-based representation of the speech signal
We present SABR (Sparse, Anchor-Based Representation), an analysis technique to decompose the speech signal into speaker-dependent and speaker-independent components. Given a collection of utterances for a particular speaker, SABR uses the centroid for each phoneme as an acoustic “anchor,” then applies Lasso regularization to represent each speech frame as a sparse non-negative combination of t...
