Automatic speech recognition (ASR) is a typical pattern recognition technology that converts
human speeches into texts. With the aid of advanced deep learning models, the …

The robustness of automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems degrade due to the factors
such as environmental noises, speaker variability, and channel distortion, among others …

Multi-class pattern classification has many applications including speech recognition, and it
is not easy to extend from two-class neural networks (NNs). This paper presents a study …

Abstract The Visual Speech Recognition (VSR) system performance is highly influenced by
the selection of visual features. These features are categorized into static and dynamic …

Building an ASR system in adverse conditions is a challenging task. The performance of the
ASR system is high in clean environments. However, the variabilities such as speaker effect …

Abstract Building a robust Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) system and improving
recognition accuracy in adverse conditions is still a challenging task. One way to improve …

Research work on the design of robust multimodal speech recognition systems making use
of acoustic and visual cues, extracted using the relatively noise robust alternate speech …

This paper presents a study on alternative speech sensor for speech processing
applications. Noise robustness is one of the major considerations in speech processing …
