speech recognition 3
HIGH levels of speech recognition have been achieved with a new sound processing strategy for multielectrode cochlear implants. A cochlear implant system consists of one or more implanted elec-trodes for direct electrical activation of the auditory nerve, an externalAutomatic Speech Recognition (ASR), which is aimed to enable natural human machine interaction, has been an intensive research area for decades. Many core technologies, such as Gaussian mixture models (GMMs), hidden Markov models (HMMs), mel-frequency
Towards end-to-end speech recognition with recurrent neural networks

Discriminative training for large vocabulary speech recognition
free download
This thesis investigates the use of discriminative criteria for training HMM parameters for speech recognition , in particular the Maximum Mutual Information (MMI) criterion and a new criterion called Minimum Phone Error (MPE). Investigations are conducted into the practical
Constrained iterative speech enhancement with application to speech recognition
free download
In this paper, an improved form of iterative speech enhancement for single channel inputs is formulated. The basis of the procedure is sequential maximum a posteriori estimation of the speech waveform and its all-pole parameters as originally formulated by Lim and
Speech recognition with dynamic Bayesian networks
free download
Abstract Dynamic Bayesian networks (DBNs) are a useful tool for representing complex stochastic processes. Recent developments in inference and learning in DBNs allow their use in real-world applications. In this paper, we apply DBNs to the problem of speech

This thesis examines how artificial neural networks can benefit a large vocabulary, speaker independent, continuous speech recognition system. Currently, most speech recognition systems are based on hidden Markov models (HMMs), a statistical framework that supports
Speech recognition using SVMs
free download
An important issue in applying SVMs to speech recognition is the ability to classify variable length sequences. This paper presents extensions to a standard scheme for handling this variable length data, the Fisher score. A more useful mapping is introduced based on the
Large-vocabulary speech recognition under adverse acoustic environments
