Keyword Spotting Out of Continuous Speech

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

Successful Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) technology has been a research aspiration for the past five decades. Ideally, computers would be able to transform any type of human speech into an accurate textual transcription. Today’s ASR technology generates fairly good results using structured speech with relatively low Signal to Noise Ratios (SNR), but performance degrades when using spontaneous speech in real-life noisy environments (Murveit et al. 1992; Young 1996; Furui 2003; Deng and Huang 2004). Performance that is acceptable for commercial applications can be achieved using large training corpora of speech and text. However, there are still problems that need to be resolved.
