Abstract

A denoising mechanism uses chosen signal classes and selected analysis dictionaries. The chosen signal class includes a collection of signals. The analysis dictionaries describe signals. The embedding threshold value is initially determined for a training set of signals in the chosen signal class. The update signal is initialized with a signal corrupted by noise.

Abstract

A probabilistic framework for acoustic-phonetic automatic speech recognition organizes a set of phonetic features into a hierarchy consisting of a broad manner feature sub-hierarchy and a fine phonetic feature sub-hierarchy. Each phonetic feature of said hierarchy corresponds to a set of acoustic correlates and each broad manner feature of said broad manner feature sub-hierarchy is further associated with a corresponding set of acoustic landmarks. A pattern recognizer is trained from a knowledge base of phonetic features and corresponding acoustic correlates.
