Fractal Dimension Method for Connected-digit Recognition

Strange attractor can be used as a presentation method for signal processing. Fractal dimension is well known method that extract features from attractor. Even though the method provides powerful capabilities for speech processing, there is drawback which should be solved in advance. Normally, the size of the raw signal should be long enough for processing if we use the fractal dimension method. However, in the area of connected-digits problem, normally, syllable or semi-syllable based processing is applied. In this case, there is no evidence that we have sufficient data or not to extract characteristics of attractor. This paper discusses the relationship between the size of the signal data and the calculation result of fractal dimension, and also discusses the efficient way to be applied to connected-digit recognition.
