Abstract. In a spoken dialogue system, the speech recognition performance accounts for the largest part of the overall system performance. Yet spontaneous speech recognition has an...
Current state-of-the-art systems for automatic phonetic transcription (APT) are mostly phone recognizers based on Hidden Markov models (HMMs). We present a different approach for ...

A novel frame-wise model adaptation approach for reverberationrobust distant-talking speech recognition is proposed. It adjusts the means of static cepstral features to capture th...
We assess the current state of the art in speech summarization, by comparing a typical summarizer on two different domains: lecture data and the SWITCHBOARD corpus. Our results ca...
Speech communication consists of three steps: production, transmission, and hearing. Every step inevitably involves acoustic distortions due to gender differences, age, microphone...
