Abstract:

In this paper, we focus on the problem of speech recognition in the presence of nonstationary sudden noise that appears rapidly and lasts for a short period of time. As a model compensation for this task, we investigated the use of Factorial Hidden Markov Model (FHMM) architecture built from clean speech Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) and sudden noise HMM. As this architecture is defined only for static features of the observation vector, we extended it also for dynamic features. The experiments confirmed that the proposed method improves the clean speech HMMs, particularly in noisy conditions. 1.
