Markov Modelling in Iso La Ted Word Recognition

نویسنده

  • Paul Dalsgaard
چکیده

This paper presents a speaker independent isolated word recogniser, which combines the product codebook vector quantisation principle with the discrete hidden Markov modeHing (HMM), so that each frame in the unknown test word ( or training word) is described by two symbols, the linear predictive coding (LPC) shape and gain. The recogniser (both training and testing) has been evaluated on a 12 word vocabulary. The recognition results as well as the implementation requirements are discussed and compared with other approaches to speaker independent isolated word recognition.

Holistic Farsi handwritten word recognition using gradient features

In this paper we address the issue of recognizing Farsi handwritten words. Two types of gradient features are extracted from a sliding vertical stripe which sweeps across a word image. These are directional and intensity gradient features. The feature vector extracted from each stripe is then coded using the Self Organizing Map (SOM). In this method each word is modeled using the discrete Hidde...

IPA: improved phone modelling with recurrent neural networks

This paper describes phone modelling improvements t o the hybrid ronnectionist-hidden Markov model speech recognition system developed a t Cambridge University. These improvements are applied to phone recognition from the TIMIT task and word recognition from the Wall Street Journal (WSJ) task. A recurrent net is used to map acoustic vectors t o posterior probabilities of phone classes. The maxi...

Context-dependent word duration modelling for robust speech recognition

Conventional hidden Markov models (HMMs) have weak duration constraints. This may cause the decoder to produce word matches with unrealistic durations in noisy situations. This paper describes techniques for modelling context-dependent word duration cues and incorporating them directly in a multi-stack decoding algorithm. The proposed model is capable of penalising duration constraints of a wor...

Offline Handwritten Arabic Word Recognition Using HMM - a Character Based Approach without Explicit Segmentation

This paper presents the IfN’s Offline Handwritten Arabic Word Recognition System. The system uses Hidden Markov Models (HMM) for word recognition, and is based on character recognition without explicit segmentation. The first part of this paper deals with databases for word recognition systems, and in particular, the IFN/ENIT database. The second part gives a short description of the pre-proces...

British Machine Vision Conference 2 Char Iso Ini Mid End Char Iso Ini Mid End

We present a technique for extracting structural features from cursive Arabic script. After preprocessing, the skeleton of the binary word image is decomposed into a number of segments in a certain order. Each segment is transformed into a feature vector. The target features are the curvature of the segment, its length relative to other segment lengths of the same word, the position of the segm...
