In vocabulary recognition system has reduce recognition rate unrecognized error cause of similar phoneme recognition and due to provided inaccurate vocabulary. Input of inaccurate vocabulary by feature extraction case of recognition by appear result of unrecognized or similar phoneme recognized. Also can't feature extraction properly when phoneme recognition is similar phoneme recognition. In this paper propose vocabulary recognition post-process error correction system using phoneme likelihood based on phoneme feature. Phoneme likelihood is monophone training phoneme data by find out using MFCC and LPC feature extraction method. Similar phoneme is induced able to recognition of accurate phoneme due to inaccurate vocabulary provided unrecognized reduced error rate. Find out error correction using phoneme likelihood and confidence when vocabulary recognition perform error correction for error proved vocabulary. System performance comparison as a result of recognition improve represent MFCC 7.5%, LPC 5.3% by system using error pattern and system using semantic.

Hearing impairment children possess poor underlying perceptual knowledge of the sound system and show delayed development of segmental organization of that system. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between phonological awareness ability and word identification ability in hearing impaired children. 14 children with moderately severe hearing loss participated in this study. All tasks were individually administered. Phonological awareness tests consisted of syllable blending, syllable segmentation, syllable deletion, body-coda discrimination, phoneme blending, phoneme segmentation and phoneme deletion. Close-set Monosyllabic Words(12 items) and lists 1 and 2 of open-set Monosyllabic Words in EARS-K were examined for word identification. Results of this study were as follows: First, from the phonological awareness task, the close-set word identification showed a high positive correlation with the coda discrimination, phoneme blending and phoneme deletion. The open-set word identification showed a high positive correlation with phoneme blending, phoneme deletion and phoneme segmentation. Second, from the level of phonological awareness, the close-set word identification showed a high positive correlation with the level of body-coda awareness and phoneme awareness while the open-set word identification showed a high positive correlation only with the level of phoneme awareness.

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.

Recently, systems based on speech recognition interface such as telematics terminals are being developed. However, many errors still exist in speech recognition and then studies about error correction are actively conducting. This paper proposes an error correction in post-processing of the speech recognition based on features of Korean phoneme. To support this algorithm, we used the phoneme similarity considering features of Korean phoneme. The phoneme similarity, which is utilized in this paper, rams data by mono-phoneme, and uses MFCC and LPC to extract feature in each Korean phoneme. In addition, the phoneme similarity uses a Bhattacharrya distance measure to get the similarity between one phoneme and the other. By using the phoneme similarity, the error of eo-jeol that may not be morphologically analyzed could be corrected. Also, the syllable recovery and morphological analysis are performed again. The results of the experiment show the improvement of 7.5% and 5.3% for each of MFCC and LPC.

This paper presents a study on Neural Networks for Phoneme Recognition and performs phoneme recognition using TDNN(Time Delay Neural Network). Also, this paper proposes new training algorithm for speech recognition using neural nets that proper to large scale TDNN. Because phoneme recognition is indispensable for continuous speech recognition, this paper uses TDNN to get accurate recognition result of phoneme. And this paper proposes new training algorithm that can converge TDNN to optimal state regardless of the number of phoneme to be recognized. The result of recognition on three phoneme classes shows recognition rate of 9.1%. And this paper proves that proposed algorithm is a efficient method for high performance and reducing convergence time.

The purpose of this study is to observe how Korean listeners detect a target phoneme with 'Focus' represented by prosodic prominence and question-induced semantic emphasis. According to the automated phoneme detection task using E-Prime, Korean listeners detected phoneme targets more rapidly when the target-bearing words were in prominence position and in question-induced position. However, when phoneme targets were in prominence position, response time was much faster than in question-induced position. The results suggest that the prosodic prominence which is explicit method of focus representation be more effective than question-inducing, implicit method of it, in phoneme detecting.

Korean unvoiced phonemes consist of nonstationary parts comparing that the vowels and nasal consonants consist of quasi-stationary part. And some phonemes, which have smae point of articulation but differnt manner of articulation, has similar characteristics, so it makes to be hard to distinguish each other. A new method usin gchanges and characteristics of acoustic properties of these phonemes to improve recognition rate are proposed. And because these changes and cahracteristics evidently occur in continuous speech except some unvoiced consonants are articulated as voiced phoneme in case to be used as an midial between voiced phonemes, this method can be applied easily. The features of the frames extracted to represent each phonemes are used asinputs to the hierarchical neural network. And with these results final decision for phoneme recognition is made thorugh post processing which the new method is applied to. Through the experimental recognition results for 9 unvoiced consonants which belong to bilabial, alveolar, and velar phoneme series, 89.4% recognition rate to distinguish in same phoneme series is obtained, and 85.6% recognition rate is obtained in case of including cistinguishing phoneme series.

Recognition of grapheme is a very important process in the recognition within 'Hangul(Korean written language)' letters using phoneme recognition. It is because the success or failure in the recognition of phoneme greatly affects the recognition of letters. For this reason, it is reported that separation of phonemes is the biggest difficulty in the phoneme recognition study. The current study separates and suggests the new phonemes that used the connective elements that are helpful for dividing phonemes, recommends the features for recognition of such suggested phonemes, databases this, and carried out a set of experiments of recognizing phonemes using the suggested features. The current study used 350 letters in the experiment of phoneme separation and recognition. In this particular kind of letters, there were 1,125 phonemes suggested. In the phoneme separation experiment, the phonemes were divided in the rate of 100%, and the phoneme recognition experiment showed the recognition rate of 98% in recognizing only 14 phonemes into different ones.

In this paper, we show that one can enhance the performance of blind segmentation of phoneme boundaries by adopting the knowledge of Korean syllabic structure and the regions of voiced/unvoiced sounds. eh proposed method consists of three processes : the process to extract candidate phoneme boundaries, the process to detect boundaries of voiced/unvoiced sounds, and the process to select final phoneme boundaries. The candidate phoneme boudaries are extracted by clustering method based on similarity between two adjacent clusters. The employed similarity measure in this a process is the ratio of the probability density of adjacent clusters. To detect he boundaries of voiced/unvoiced sounds, we first compute the power density spectrum of speech signal in 0∼400 Hz frequency band. Then the points where this paper density spectrum variation is greater than the threshold are chosen as the boundaries of voiced/unvoiced sounds. The final phoneme boundaries consist of all the candidate phoneme boundaries in voiced region and limited number of candidate phoneme boundaries in unvoiced region. The experimental result showed about 40% decrease of insertion rate compared to the blind segmentation method we adopted.
