Abstract
Description
technical field
[0001] The invention relates to speech recognition, in particular to a method for extracting feature vectors to achieve high speech recognition rate. Background technique
[0002] In the neighborhood of speech recognition, the two speech recognition methods that are mainly used are Hidden Markov Model (HMM) and Dynamic Time Warping (DTW).
[0003] In the HMM-based speech recognition method, HMM parameters are acquired in the training stage and stored in a speech database, and a Markov processor searches for a model with the highest recognition rate using a maximum likelihood (ML) method. Feature vectors necessary for speech recognition are extracted, and training and speech recognition are performed using the extracted feature vectors.
[0004] In the training phase, the HMM parameters are usually obtained using the Expectation Maximum (EM) algorithm or the Baum-Welch re-estimation algorithm. The Viterbi algorithm is usually used in the speech recognition s...
