In vocabulary recognition has unseen tri-phone appeared when recognition training. This system has not been created beginning estimation figure of model parameter. It's bad points could not be created that model for phoneme data. Therefore it's could not be secured accuracy of Gaussian model. To improve suggested Gaussian model to optimized method of model parameter using probability distribution. To improved of confidence that Gaussian model to optimized of probability distribution to offer by accuracy and to support searching of phoneme data. This paper suggested system performance comparison as a result of recognition improve represent 1.7% by out-of vocabulary rejection algorithm using normalization confidence.

Utterance verification is used in variable vocabulary word recognition to reject the word that does not belong to in-vocabulary word or does not belong to correctly recognized word. Utterance verification is an important technology to design a user-friendly speech recognition system. We propose a new utterance verification algorithm for no-training utterance verification system based on the minimum verification error. First, using PBW (Phonetically Balanced Words) DB (445 words), we create no-training anti-phoneme models which include many PLUs(Phoneme Like Units), so anti-phoneme models have the minimum verification error. Then, for OOV (Out-Of-Vocabulary) rejection, the phoneme-based confidence measure which uses the likelihood between phoneme model (null hypothesis) and anti-phoneme model (alternative hypothesis) is normalized by null hypothesis, so the phoneme-based confidence measure tends to be more robust to OOV rejection. And, the word-based confidence measure which uses the phoneme-based confidence measure has been shown to provide improved detection of near-misses in speech recognition as well as better discrimination between in-vocabularys and OOVs. Using our proposed anti-model and confidence measure, we achieve significant performance improvement; CA (Correctly Accept for In-Vocabulary) is about 89％, and CR (Correctly Reject for OOV) is about 90％, improving about 15-21％ in ERR (Error Reduction Rate).

In this paper, we propose a technique to improve Out-Of-Vocabulary(OOV) rejection algorithms in variable vocabulary recognition system which is much used in ASR(Automatic Speech Recognition). The rejection system can be classified into two categories by their implementation method, keyword spotting method and utterance verification method. The utterance verification method uses the likelihood ratio of each phoneme Viterbi score relative to anti-phoneme score for deciding OOV. In this paper, we add speaker verification system before utterance verification and calculate an speaker verification probability. The obtained speaker verification probability is applied for determining the proposed variable-confidence threshold. Using the proposed method, we achieve the significant performance improvement; CA(Correctly Accepted for keyword) 94.23%, CR(Correctly Rejected for out-of-vocabulary) 95.11% in office environment, and CA 91.14%, CR 92.74% in noisy environment.

본 논문은 중규모 단어급의 핵심어 검출 시스템에서 인식률 향상을 위해 미등록어 거절(Out-of-Vocabulary rejection) 기능을 제어하기 위한 연구이다. 이것은 핵심어 검출기에서 인식된 결과를 확인하는 과정으로 검증시스템이 구현되기 위해서는 매 음소마다 검증 기능이 필요하고, 이를 위해서 반음소(anti-phoneme model) 모델을 사용하였다. 검증의 역할은 인식기에서 인식된 단어가 등록어인지 미등록어인지 판별하는 것이다. 단어인식기는 비터비 탐색을 하므로, 기본적으로 단어단위로 인식을 하지만 그 인식된 단어는 내부적으로 음소단위로 인식된다. 따라서, 최소 검증 오류를 갖는 반음소 모델을 사용하고, 이를 이용하여 인식된 음소 단위들을 각각의 반음소 모델과 비교하여 통계적인 방법에 의해 신뢰도를 구한다 이 음소단위의 신뢰도를 단어 단위의 신뢰도로 환산하기 위해서 음소단위를 평균 내는 방식 을 취한다. 이렇게 함으로서, 등록어와 미등록어 사이의 분별력을 크게 하여 향상된 인식 성능을 얻었다.

In the generated model for the recognition vocabulary, tri-phones which is not make preparations are produced. Therefore this model does not generate an initial estimate of parameter words, and the system can not configure the model appear as disadvantages. As a result, the sophistication of the Gaussian model is fall will degrade recognition. In this system, we propose the error correction system using out-of vocabulary rejection algorithm. When the systems are creating a vocabulary recognition model, recognition rates are improved to refuse the vocabulary which is not registered. In addition, this system is seized the lexical analysis and meaning using probability distributions, and this system deactivates the string before phoneme change was applied. System analysis determine the rate of error correction using phoneme similarity rate and reliability, system performance comparison as a result of error correction rate improve represent 2.8% by method using error patterns, fault patterns, meaning patterns.

In the communication mobile terminal, Vocabulary recognition system has low recognition rates, because this problems are due to phoneme feature extract from inaccurate vocabulary. Therefore they are not recognize the phoneme and similar phoneme misunderstanding error. To solve this problem, this paper propose the system model, which based on the two step process. First, input phoneme is represent by number which measure the distance of phonemes through phoneme likelihood process. next step is recognize the result through the reliability measure. By this process, we minimize the phoneme misunderstanding error caused by inaccurate vocabulary and perform error correction rate for error provrd vocabulary using phoneme likelihood and reliability. System performance comparison as a result of recognition improve represent 2.7% by method using error pattern learning and semantic pattern.

In this paper. we propose a method of confidence measure fusion under Bayesian framework for speech recognition. Centralized and distributed schemes are considered for confidence measure fusion. Centralized fusion is feature level fusion which combines the values of individual confidence scores and makes a final decision. In contrast. distributed fusion is decision level fusion which combines the individual decision makings made by each individual confidence measuring method. Optimal Bayesian fusion rules for centralized and distributed cases are presented. In isolated word Out-of-Vocabulary (OOV) rejection experiments. centralized Bayesian fusion shows over 13% relative equal error rate (EER) reduction compared with the individual confidence measure methods. In contrast. the distributed Bayesian fusion shows no significant performance increase.

In vocabulary recognition system has it's bad points of processing vocabulary unseen triphone and then no got distribution of confidence measure by cannot normalization. According to this problem to improve suggested VCOR(Version Control for Out-of Rejection) system by out-of vocabulary rejection algorithm use vocabulary management optimization and then phone data search support. In VCOR system to provide vocabulary information efficiently offering for user's vocabulary information using extend facet classification that improved for vocabulary measure management function offering accuracy of recognition for vocabulary. In this paper proposed system performance as a result of represent vocabulary dependence recognition rate of 97.56%, vocabulary independence recognition rate of 96.23%.
