확장 합성단위 기반 한국어 음성합성장치는 통상의 문자로 쓰여진 텍스트를 인간이 소리내어 읽듯이 기계에 의해 자동적으로 음성을 합성하는 시스템이다. 이 시스템은 1995년부터 수행하고 있는 "다중 매체 환경 하에서의 대화체 음성번역 통신 기술개발" 사업의 연구 결과물 중 하나로 1997년도에 개발되어 학습형 자동합성단위 생성기 및 영역의존 음성합성기 기술을 전수할 예정이다.

An important aspect of video program indexing and retrieval is the ability to segment video program into meaningful segments, in other words, the ability of content-based video program segmentation. In this paper, a new approach using speech recognition technology has been proposed for content-based video program segmentation. This approach uses speech recognition technique to synchronize closed caption with speech signal. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed scheme is very promising for content-based video program segmentation.

This paper is a study on speech recognition in the Korean using grapheme unit (Cho-sumg [onset], Jung-sung [nucleus], Jong-sung [coda]). Here we make ASR (Automatic speech recognition) system without G2P (Grapheme to Phoneme) process and show that Deep learning based ASR systems can learn Korean pronunciation rules without G2P process. The proposed model is shown to reduce the word error rate in the presence of sufficient training data.

음성 사용자 인터페이스(Voice User Interface)에 대한 수요가 증가함에 따라 음성 합성(Speech Synthesis) 시스템에서 자연스러운 음성 발화를 모방하기 위해 적절한 위치에 휴지를 삽입하는 것이 주된 과업으로 자리잡았다. 대화의 연속성을 고려했을 때, 자연스러운 음성 기반 인터페이스를 구성하기 위해서는 대화의 맥락을 이해하고 적절한 위치에 휴지를 삽입하는 것이 필수적이다. 이에 따라 본 연구는 대화 맥락에 기반하여 적절한 위치에 휴지를 삽입하는 Long-Input Transformer 기반 휴지 예측 모델을 제안하고 한국어 대화 데이터셋에서 검증한 결과를 보인다.

SNN (Spiking Neural Network) operating in neuromorphic architecture was created by mimicking human neural networks. Neuromorphic computing based on neuromorphic architecture requires relatively lower power than typical deep learning techniques based on GPUs. For this reason, research to support various artificial intelligence models using neuromorphic architecture is actively taking place. This paper conducted a performance analysis of the speech recognition model based on neuromorphic architecture according to the speech data preprocessing technique. As a result of the experiment, it showed up to 84% of speech recognition accuracy performance when preprocessing speech data using the Fourier transform. Therefore, it was confirmed that the speech recognition service based on the neuromorphic architecture can be effectively utilized.

In this paper, we propose a novel approach to improve the performance of a statistical model-based voice activity detection (VAD) which is based on the conditional maximum a posteriori (CMAP) with deviation. In our approach, the VAD decision rule is expressed as the geometric mean of likelihood ratios (LRs) based on adapted threshold according to the speech presence probability conditioned on both the speech activity decisions and spectral deviation in the pervious frame. Experimental results show that the proposed approach yields better results compared to the CMAP-based VAD using the LR test.

Voice interactions are particularly effective in applications targeting the digital underprivileged who are not proficient in the use of smart devices. However, applications based on open APIs are using voice signals only for short, fragmentary input and output due to the limitations of existing touchscreen-oriented UI and API provided. In this paper, we design a conversational voice interaction model for interactions between users and intelligent mobile/IoT applications and propose a keyword detection algorithm based on the edit distance. The proposed model and scheme were implemented in an Android environment, and the edit distance-based keyword detection algorithm showed a higher recognition rate than the existing algorithm for keywords that were incorrectly recognized through speech recognition.

This paper presents a speech enhancement technique based on generalized Gamma distribution in order to obtain robust speech recognition performance. For robust speech enhancement, the noise estimation based on a spectral noise floor controled recursive averaging spectral values is applied to speech estimation under the generalized Gamma distribution and spectral gain floor. The proposed speech enhancement technique is based on spectral component, spectral amplitude, and log spectral amplitude. The performance of three different methods is measured by recognition accuracy of automatic speech recognition (ASR).
