This paper describes Connected Digit Recognition with Considering Acoustic Feature in Korea. The recognition rate of connected digit is usually lower than word recognition. Therefore, speech feature parameter and acoustic feature are employed to make robust model for digit, and we could confirm the effect of Considering. Acoustic Feature throughout the experience of recognition. We used KLE 4 connected digit as database and 19 continuous distributed HMM as PLUs(Phoneme Like Units) using phonetical rules. For recognition experience, we have tested two cases. The first case, we used usual method like using Mel-Cepstrum and Regressive Coefficient for constructing phoneme model. The second case, we used expanded feature parameter and acoustic feature for constructing phoneme model. In both case, we employed OPDP(One Pass Dynamic Programming) and FSA(Finite State Automata) for recognition tests. When appling FSN for recognition, we applied various acoustic features. As the result, we could get 55.4% recognition rate for Mel-Cepstrum, and 67.4% for Mel-Cepstrum and Regressive Coefficient. Also, we could get 74.3% recognition rate for expanded feature parameter, and 75.4% for applying acoustic feature. Since, the case of applying acoustic feature got better result than former method, we could make certain that suggested method is effective for connected digit recognition in korean.

As a preliminary study for improving recognition performance of the connected digit telephone speech, we investigate feature parameters as well as channel compensation methods of telephone speech. The CMN and RTCN are examined for telephone channel compensation, and the MFCC, DWFBA, SSC and their delta-features are examined as feature parameters. Recognition experiments with database we collected show that in feature level DWFBA is better than MFCC and for channel compensation RTCN is better than CMN. The DWFBA+Delta_ Mel-SSC feature shows the highest recognition rate.

In this paper, data-driven temporal filter methods[1] are investigated for robust feature extraction. A principal component analysis technique is applied to the time trajectories of feature sequences of training speech data to get appropriate temporal filters. We did recognition experiments on the Korean connected digit telephone speech database released by SITEC, with data-driven temporal filters. Experimental results are discussed with our findings.

The performance of a speech recognition system is generally degraded in telephone environment because of distortions caused by background noise and various channel characteristics. In this paper, data-driven temporal filters are investigated to improve the performance of a specific recognition task such as telephone speech. Three different temporal filtering methods are presented with recognition results for Korean connected-digit telephone speech. Filter coefficients are derived from the cepstral domain feature vectors using the principal component analysis. According to experimental results, the proposed temporal filtering method has shown slightly better performance than the previous ones.

In general, triangular shape filters are used in the filter bank when we get the MFCCs from the spectrum of speech signal. In [1], a new feature extraction approach is proposed, which uses specific filter shapes in the filter bank that are obtained from the spectrum of training speech data. In this approach, principal component analysis technique is applied to the spectrum of the training data to get the filter coefficients. In this paper, we carry out speech recognition experiments, using the new approach given in [1], for a large amount of telephone speech data, that is, the telephone speech database of Korean connected digit released by SITEC. Experimental results are discussed with our findings.

This paper proposes a new method for the digit recognition on a 7-segment display. The proposed method uses morphological processing that dilates segments of digits and connects them into strokes. The digits are extracted by connected component analysis and finally, template matching method recognizes the extracted digits. The proposed method is implemented using C language in Raspberry Pi 4 system with a camera module for a real-time image processing. Experiments were conducted by using various 7-segment LED displays and 7-segment mono LCD displays. The results show that the proposed method is successful for the digit recognition on the 7-segment displays.

In this paper, we have recognized Korean connected-digits. To reduce the processing time the method of combining VQ one-stage DP is introduced and to reduce the number of reference pattern a new group labelling technique is proposed. Group-labelling is a method to segment and label connected-digit into groups by VQ. As experimental results with 3 connected-digits, the number of reference patterns are reduced in proportion to the number of groups which are labelled.

전화망에서의 연결 숫자 인식 시스템의 개발에 대한 내용을 다루며, 이 시스템에서 다양한 숫자 모델링 방법들을 구현하고 비겨하였다. Word 모델의 경우 문맥독립 whole-word 모델을 구현하였으며, sub-word 모델로는 triphone 모델과 불파음화 자음을 모음에 포함시킨 modified triphone 모델을 구현하였다. 그리고 tree-based clustering 방법을 sub-word 모델과 문맥종속 whole-word 모델에 적용하였다. 이와 같은 숫자모델들에 대해 연속 HMM을 이용하여 화자독립 연결숫자 인식 실험을 수행한 결과, 문맥종속 단어 모델이 문맥독립 단어 모델보다 우수한 성능을 나타냈으며, triphone 모델과 modified triphone 모델은 유사한 성능을 나타냈다. 특히 tree-based clustering 방법을 적용한 문맥종속 단어 모델이 4연 숫자열에 대해 99.8%의 단어 dsltlr률 및 99.1%의 숫자열 인식률로서 가장 우수한 성능을 나타내었다.

한국어 숫자는 각 숫자가 단음절로 이루어져 있으며, 연속적으로 발음될 때 인접 숫자들의 상호조음현상에 의해 각 숫자의 고유 발음이 변화하고, 또한 그 숫자들의 경계도 모호해지는 문제점이 있다. 한편 연속적인 숫자의 발성을 기대하는 인식시스템에 반하여 일부 사용자는 숫자들을 고려시켜서 발성하기도 한다. 이는 연결숫자의 음운현상만을 고려한 인식 시스템에서는 성능저하의 한 원인이 된다 본 논문에서는 연결숫자의 인식성능 향상을 위해서 한국어 숫자들의 음운 변화를 고려하여 변이음군을 정하였으며, 사용자의 여러 가지 발성형태에 따른 다양한 음운 현상의 변화를 흡수 할 수 있도록 인식 네트웍을 구성하는 방식을 검토하였다. 전화망 4연숫자음을 이용한 화자독립 인식실험을 통해서 한국어 숫자에서 자주 오인식 되는 '이', '오', '일' 인식 성능이 각각 $4..2\%$, $4.2\%$, $2.9\%$씩 향상되었으며, 인식속도도 $33\%$의 개선이 있었다

Because a word of Korean digits is a syllable and deeply coarticulatied in connected digits, some recognition models based on demisyllables have been proposed by researchers. However, they could not show an excellent recognition results yet. This paper proposes a recognition model based on extended and context-dependent demisyllables, such as a tri-demisyllable like a tri-phone, for the Korean 4-connected digits recognition. For experiments, we use a toolkit of HTK 3.0 for building this model of continuous HMMs using training Korean connected digits from SiTEC database and for recognizing unknown ones. The results show that the recognition rate is 92% and this model has an ability to improve the recognition performance of Korean connected digits.
