Major progress is being recorded regularly on both the technology and exploitation of
automatic speech recognition (ASR) and spoken language systems. However, there are still …

This paper examines how people communicate with computers using speech. Automatic
speech recognition (ASR) transforms speech into text, while automatic speech synthesis [or …

Several algorithms have been developed for tracking formant frequency trajectories of
speech signals, however most of these algorithms are either not robust in real-life noise …

Most modern speech recognition systems use either Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients or
perceptual linear prediction as acoustic features. Recently, there has been some interest in …

Recent work in text to speech synthesis has pointed to the benefit of using a continuous
pitch estimate; that is, one that records pitch even when voicing is not present. Such an …

The case study gives a brief insight into the different techniques used by an agile project
team which was located at two different geographical locations. It demonstrates how the …

Numerous attempts have been made to find low-dimensional, formant-related
representations of speech signals that are suitable for automatic speech recognition …

In this paper, we propose a new approach for dynamic speech spectrum representation and
tracking vocal tract resonance (VTR) frequencies. The method involves representing the …
