The VQ HMM uses a VQ distortion measure at each state instead of a discrete output probability used by a discrete HMM. The VQ HMM is described, and its speech recognition performance is compared with the conventional HMMs through the experiments on speaker independent Chinese spoken digit recognition. The comparisons confirm that the new method over performed traditional HMMs.展开更多

This VQ distortion based HMM uses a VQ distortion measure at each state instead of a discrete probability output used by a discrete HMM. Although this method is regarded as a refined version of the VQ distortion based recognition method proposed by Burton et al, it is also considered as a special case of a mixed distribution density HMM. In this paper, the VQ distortion based HMM is described, and it is compared with the conventional HMMs and their speech recognition performance through the experiments on speaker independent spoken digit recognition. From these comparisons, we confirm that the new method is better than the traditional HMMs.展开更多
