Yong Jun Lu, Haiyang Wu, Zhenyang Wu · IEEE Transactions on Consumer Electronics · 2010
This paper proposes a novel robust speech recognition technique using improved vector Taylor series (VTS) algorithm for embedded systems. It uses a hidden Markov model (HMM) to replace the Gaussian mixture model (GMM) for estimating the clean speech feature, and gives the closed-form solutions of the noise parameters including the mean and variance at each expectation-maximization (EM) iteration. The experimental results show that the proposed algorithm makes a good balance between the computational complexity and recognition accuracy, and thus is more useful for embedded systems.
