Context dependent anti subword modeling for utterance verification
نویسندگان
چکیده
Utterance verification is used in spoken language dialog systems to reject the speech that does not belong to the task and to correctly recognize the sentences that do. Current verification systems use context dependent (CD) or context independent (CI) subword models and CI anti-subword models. We propose many methods of modeling the CD anti-subword models. We have compared these anti-models and show that the anti-models with the same context have the most separation between the speech that contains the subword and the speech that does not contain the subword. We have also conducted recognition/verification experiments with a two pass verifier and two one pass verification systems to compare the different types of anti-subword models. Our results show that the same context anti-subword models have the best recognition/verification performance.

An utterance verification system based on subword modeling for a vocabulary independent speech recognition system
This paper describes a Korean utterance veri cation system based on subword modeling for a vocabulary independent speech recognition system. We deploy strategy consisting of two modules: recognition and veri cation, for utterance veri cation. In the stage of recognition, multiple hypotheses with hypothesized word boundaries obtained through Viterbi segmentation of the utterance are obtained. An...
متن کاملImproved utterance rejection using length dependent thresholds
In this paper, we propose to use an utterance length (duration) dependent threshold for rejecting an unknown input utterance with a general speech (garbage) model. A general speech model, comparing with more sophisticated anti-subword models, is a more viable solution to the utterance rejection problem for low-cost applications with stringent storage and computational constraints. However, the ...
متن کاملCombining key-phrase detection and subword-based verification for flexible speech understanding
A exible speech understanding framework combining key-phrase detection and veri cation is presented. Detection of semantically-tagged key-phrases directly leads to robust understanding. In order to select reliable detection and eliminate false alarms, utterance veri cation technique is incorporated. A phrase veri er combines subword-based likelihood ratios of correct models and anti-subword alt...
متن کاملSubword-based minimum verification error (SB-MVE) training for task independent utterance verification
In this paper we formulate a training framework and present a method for task independent utterance verification. Verification-specific HMMs are defined and discriminatively trained using minimum verification error training. Task independence is accomplished by performing the verification on the subword level and training the verification models using a general phonetically balanced database th...
متن کاملUtterance verification using prosodic information for Mandarin telephone speech keyword spotting
In this paper, the prosodic information, a very special and important feature in Mandarin speech, is used for Mandarin telephone speech utterance verification. A two-stage strategy, with recognition followed by verification, is adopted. For keyword recognition, 59 context-independent subsyllables, i.e., 22 INITIAL’s and 37 FINAL’s in Mandarin speech, and one background/silence model, are used a...
