Study on the Recognition of Spoken Korean Continuous Digits Using Phone Network

This paper describes the implementation of recognition of speaker - dependent Korean spoken continuous digits. The recognition system can be divided into two parts, acoustic - phonetic processor and lexical decoder. Acoustic - phonetic processor calculates the feature vectors from input speech signal and the performs frame labelling and phone labelling. Frame labelling is performed by Bayesian classification method and phone labelling is performed using labelled frame and posteriori probability. The lexical decoder accepts segments (phones) from acoustic - phonetic processor and decodes its lexical structure through phone network which is constructed from phonetic representation of ten digits. The experiment carried out with two sets of 4continuous digits, each set is composed of 35 patterns. An evaluation of the system yielded a pattern accuracy of about 80 percent resulting from a word accuracy of about 95 percent.
