Abstract
This paper proposes a new rejection algorithm which distinguishes unregistered spoken words(or non-keywords) from registered vocabulary. Two kinds of garbage models are employed in this design ; the original garbage model and a new word garbage model. The original garbage model collects all non-keyword patterns where the new word garbage model collects patterns classified by recognizing each non-keyword pattern with registered vocabulary. These two types of garbage models work together to make a robust reject decision. The first stage of processing is the classification of an input pattern through the original garbage model. In the event that the first stage of processing is ambiguous, the new word dependent garbage model is used to classify thye input pattern as either a registered or non-registered word. This paper shows the efficiency of the new word dependent garbage model. A Dynamic Multisection method is used to test the performance of the algorithm. Results of this experiment show that the proposed algorithm performs at a higher level than that of the original garbage model.
