Multirate ASR Models for Phone-Class Dependent N-Best List Rescoring

SRI International November 1, 2005

Abstract

Speech comprises a variety of acoustical phenomena occurring at differing rates. Fixed-rate ASR systems assume in effect a constant temporal rate of information flow via incorporating uniform statistics in proportion to a sound’s duration. The usual tradeoff window length of 25–30 milliseconds represents a time-frequency resolution compromise, which aims to allow reasonable speed for following changes in the spectral trajectories and sufficient number of samples to estimate the harmonic structure. In this work, we describe a technique to augment a recognizer that uses this compromise with information from multiple-rate spectral models that emphasize either better time or better frequency resolution in order to improve performance. The main idea is to use the hypotheses generated by a fixed-rate recognizer to determine the appropriate model rate for a segment of the speech waveform. […]
