Analysis of Error Patterns in Korean Connected Digit Telephone Speech Recognition

연결숫자음 전화음성 인식에서의 오인식 유형 분석

Channel distortion and coarticulation effect in the connected digit telephone speech make it difficult to recognize, and degrade recognition performance in the telephone environment. In this paper, as a basic research to improve the recognition performance of Korean connected digit telephone, error patterns are investigated and analyzed. Telephone digit speech database released by SITEC with HTK system is used for recognition experiments. Both DWFBA and MRTCN methods are used for feature extraction and channel compensation, respectively. Experimental results are discussed with our findings.
