Robust speech recognition for multiple topological scenarios of the GSM mobile phone system
Theodoros Salonidis, Vassilios Digalakis · 2002
This paper deals with robust speech recognition in the GSM mobile environment. Our focus is on the voice degradation due to the losses in the GSM coding scheme. Thus, we initially propose an experimental framework of network topologies that consists of various coding-decoding systems placed in tandem. After measuring the recognition performance for each of these network scenarios, we try to increase the recognition accuracy by using feature compensation and model adaptation algorithms. We first compare the different methods for all the network topologies assuming the topology is known. We then investigate the more realistic case, in which we do not know the network topology the voice has passed through. The results show that robustness can be achieved even in this case.
