This paper describes development of small scale voice dialing system using TMS320C30. Recognition vocabuliary is used 50 department name within university. In vocabulary below the middle scale, word unit recognition is more practice than phoneme unit or syllable unit recognition. In this paper, we performend recognition and model generation using DMS(Dynamic Multi-Section) and implemeted voice dialing system using TMS320C30. As a result of recognition, we achieved a 98% recognition rate in condition of section 22 and weight 0.6 and recognition time took 4 seconds.

In this paper, Korean spoken continuous digits are ercognized using DHMM(Dynamic Hidden Markov Model) and lexical analysis to provide the base of developing voice dialing system. After segmentation by phoneme unit, it is recognized. This system can be divided into the segmentation section, the design of standard speech section, the recognition section, and the lexical analysis section. In the segmentation section, it is segmented using the ZCR, O order LPC cepstrum, and Ai, parameter of voice speech dectaction, which is changed according to time. In the standard speech design section, 19 phonemes or syllables are trained by DHMM and designed as a standard speech. In the recognition section, phomeme stream are recognized by the Viterbi algorithm.In the lexical decoder section, finally recognized continuous digits are outputed. This experiment shiwed the recognition rate of 85.1% using data spoken 7 times of 21 classes of 7 continuous digits which are combinated all of the occurence, spoken by 10 man.

Voice dialing system can recognize the speaker's command and dial the destinate phone number automatically. Such a system is useful for wireless handsets and portable communication devices. As a personal voice dialing system, all the commands are used to train the HMM for speech recognition based on owner-selected phrases. Its implementation requires much less memory space and computation resource compared to a speaker-independent system. Since only two or three training utterances per command are used in this system, it is difficult to estimate exact state duration distribution to improve the recognition performance. Therefore a post-processor is presented to improve the performance. Experiments which use the database collected through the telephone line showed that the proposed post-processor improves the recognition system performance.

본 연구는 음소 단위의 CHMM(Continuous Hidden Markov Model)을 이용한 Voice Dialing System을 위한 연속 음성인식에 관한 내용이다. 연구실 환경에서 음성으로 전화를 걸기 위하여 전국 지역명과 연속 숫자음 인식을 수행하였다. ETRI 445 데이터를 사용하여 초기의 모델은 ML(Maximum Likelihood) 추정법을 이용하여 작성하였고 적응화를 위해 최대 사후 확률 추정법을 사용하였다. 음성으로 다이얼링을 수행하기 위하여 문맥자유문법을 이용하여 제한적이나마 대화체문장으로 수행할 수 있도록 하였다. 그리하여 숫자음에 대하여 5인의 화자에 대하여 4연속 숫자음에 대하여 96%의 인식률을 보이고 있으며 7연속 숫자음에 대하여도 약 91%의 결과를 보여주고 있다. 문장으로도 음성 다이얼링을 수행하였을 경우 문장내에 단어와 숫자음에 대하여 약 80%의 인식률을 보였다.

This paper introduces a interword modeling and a Viterbi search method for continuous speech recognition. We also describe a development of a real-time voice dialing system which can recognize around one hundred words and continuous digits in speaker independent mode. For continuous digit recognition, between-word units have been proposed to provide a more precise representation of word junctures. The best path in HMM is found by the Viterbi search algorithm, from which digit sequences are recognized. The simulation results show that a interword modeling using the context-dependent between-word units provide better recognition rates than a pause modeling using the context-independent pause unit. The voice dialing system is implemented on a DSP board with a telephone interface plugged in an IBM PC AT/486.

In this paper, a WiFi phone system with distributed speech recognition is implemented. The WiFi phone with voice-activated dialing and its functions are explained. Features of the input speech are extracted and are sent to the interactive voice response (IVR) server according to the real-time transport protocol (RTP). Feature extraction is based on the European Telecommunication Standards Institute (ETSI) standard front-end, but is modified to reduce the processing time. The time for front-end processing on a WiFi phone is compared with that in a PC.

This paper presents a method that improves the performance of the personal voice dialling system in which speaker Independent phoneme HMM's are used. Since the speaker independent phoneme HMM based voice dialing system uses only the phone transcription of the input sentence, the storage space could be reduced greatly. However, the performance of the system is worse than that of the system which uses the speaker dependent models due to the phone recognition errors generated when the speaker Independent models are used. In order to solve this problem, a new method that jointly estimates transformation vectors for the speaker adaptation and transcriptions from training utterances is presented. The biases and transcriptions are estimated iteratively from the training data of each user with maximum likelihood approach to the stochastic matching using speaker-independent phone models. Experimental result shows that the proposed method is superior to the conventional method which used transcriptions only.

This paper describes development of a real-time voice recognition dialing system which can recognize around one hundred word vocabularies in speaker independent mode. The voice recognition algorithm is implemented on a DSP board with a telephone interface plugged in an IBM PC AT/486. In the DSP board, procedures for feature extraction, vector quantization(VQ), and end-point detection are performed simultaneously in every 10msec frame interval to satisfy real-time constraints after the word starting point detection. In addition, we optimize the VQ codebook size and the end-point detection procedure to reduce recognition time and memory requirement. The demonstration system is being displayed in MOBILAB of Korea Mobile Telecom at the Taejon EXPO '93.

In this paper, we studied design and implementation of a robust speech recognition system in noisy car environment. The reference pattern used in the system is DMS(Dynamic Multi-Section). Two separate acoustic models, which are selected automatically depending on the noisy car environment for the speech in a car moving at below 80km/h and over 80km/h are proposed. PLP(Perceptual Linear Predictive) of order 13 is used for the feature vector and OSDP (One-Stage Dynamic Programming) is used for decoding. The system also has the function of editing the phone-book for voice dialing. The system yields a recognition rate of 89.75% for male speakers in SI (speaker independent) mode in a car running on a cemented express way at over 80km/h with a vocabulary of 33 words. The system also yields a recognition rate of 92.29% for male speakers in SI mode in a car running on a paved express way at over 80km/h.
