Embodiment Construction

[0022] Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The same elements are marked with the same reference numerals in the drawings referred to in the following description.

[0023] In the present invention, the noisy speech model space is constructed into a tree structure according to the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the sound quality. Representing noise characteristics through a tree structure provides a model in which the global characteristics of the noise are represented at higher levels and local characteristics are represented at lower levels. The optimal segmentation space can be selected by searching the tree structure from the root down in a top-down manner, thereby selecting the optimal model.

[0024] Since the noisy speech is always used in the clustering process and the model learning process, the noisy speech model providing the highest likelihood can be learned, and improvement in recognition accur...

Abstract

An object of the present invention is to enable optimal clustering for many types of noise data and to improve the accuracy of estimation of a speech model sequence of input speech. Noise is added to speech in accordance with noise-to-signal ration conditions to generated noise-added speech (step S1), the mean value of speech cepstral is subtracted from the generated, noise-added speech (step S2), a Gaussian distribution model of each piece of noise-added speech is created (step S3), the likelihoods of the pieces of noise-added speech are calculated to generate a likelihood matrix (step S4) to obtain a clustering result. An optimum model is selected (step S7) and linear transformation is performed to provide a maximized likelihood (step S8). Because noise-added speech is consistently used both in clustering and model learning, clustering for many types of noise data and an accurate estimation of a speech model sequence can be achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a speech model noise adaptive system, a noise adaptive method and a speech recognition noise adaptive program. Specifically, the present invention relates to adapting a clean speech model generated by modeling speech features using a Hidden Markov Model (HMM) with the noisy speech to be recognized, thereby improving speech recognition in noisy environments. Speech model noise adaptive system, noise adaptive method and speech recognition noise adaptive program of the recognition rate. Background technique [0002] A tree-structured piecewise linear transformation method is described in Non-Patent Document 1 below. According to the method disclosed in this document, the noise is clustered, and according to the result of the clustering, a tree structure noisy speech model space is produced, and the speech feature parameters of the input noisy speech to be recognized are extracted, from the tree structure The optimal model is sel...
