摘要:
A method for speech recognition includes determining active Gaussians related to a first feature stream and a second feature stream by labeling at least one of the first and second streams, and determining active Gaussians co-occurring in the first stream and the second stream based upon joint probability. A number of Gaussians computed is reduced based upon Gaussians already computed for the first stream and a number of Gaussians co-occurring in the second stream. Speech is decoded based on the Gaussians computed for the first and second streams.

Techniques for performing audio-visual speech recognition, with improved recognition performance, in a degraded visual environment. For example, in one aspect of the invention, a technique for use in accordance with an audio-visual speech recognition system for improving a recognition performance thereof includes the steps/operations of: (i) selecting between an acoustic-only data model and an acoustic-visual data model based on a condition associated with a visual environment; and (ii) decoding at least a portion of an input spoken utterance using the selected data model. Advantageously, during periods of degraded visual conditions, the audio-visual speech recognition system is able to decode (recognize) input speech data using audio-only data, thus avoiding recognition inaccuracies that may result from performing speech recognition based on acoustic-visual data models and degraded visual data.

Methods for compressing a transform associated with a feature space are presented. For example, a method for compressing a transform associated with a feature space includes obtaining the transform including a plurality of transform parameters, assigning each of a plurality of quantization levels for the plurality of transform parameters to one of a plurality of quantization values, and assigning each of the plurality of transform parameters to one of the plurality of quantization values to which one of the plurality of quantization levels is assigned. One or more of obtaining the transform, assigning of each of the plurality of quantization levels, and assigning of each of the transform parameters are implemented as instruction code executed on a processor device. Further, a Viterbi algorithm may be employed for use in non-uniform level/value assignments.

Methods and apparatus for providing speech recognition in noisy environments. An energy level associated with audio input is ascertained, and a decision is rendered on whether to accept the at least one word as valid speech input, based on the ascertained energy level.
摘要:
A speech detection system extracts a plurality of features from multiple input streams. In the acoustic model space, the tree of Gaussians in the model is pruned to include the active states. The Gaussians are mapped to Hidden Markov Model states for Viterbi phoneme alignment. Another feature space, such as the energy feature space is combined with the acoustic feature space. In the feature space, the features are combined and principal component analysis decorrelates the features to fewer dimensions, thus reducing the number of features. The Gaussians are also mapped to silence, disfluent phoneme, or voiced phoneme classes. The silence class is true silence and the voiced phoneme class is speech. The disfluent class may be speech or non-speech. If a frame is classified as disfluent, then that frame is re-classified as the silence class or the voiced phoneme class based on adjacent frames.
摘要:
Techniques for evaluation and/or retraining of a classification model built using labeled training data. In some aspects, a classification model having a first set of weights is retrained by using unlabeled input to reweight the labeled training data to have a second set of weights, and by retraining the classification model using the labeled training data weighted according to the second set of weights. In some aspects, a classification model is evaluated by building a similarity model that represents similarities between unlabeled input and the labeled training data and using the similarity model to evaluate the labeled training data to identify a subset of the plurality of items of labeled training data that is more similar to the unlabeled input than a remainder of the labeled training data.
