This paper presents the theoretical basis and preliminary experimental results of a new HMM model, referred to as HMM2, which can be considered as a mixture of HMMs. In this new model, the emission probabilities of the temporal (primary) HMM are estimated ...
Automatic Speech Recognition systems typically use smoothed spectral features as acoustic observations. In recent studies, it has been shown that complementing these standard features with pitch frequency could improve the system performance of the system. ...
This paper presents a system for the offline recognition of cursive handwritten lines of text. The system is based on continuous density HMMs and Statistical Language Models. The system recognizes data produced by a single writer. No a-priori knowledge is ...
Pitch and energy are two fundamental features describing speech, having importance in human speech recognition. However, when incorporated as features in automatic speech recognition (ASR), they usually result in a significant degradation on recognition pe ...
In this paper, we present an HMM2 based method for speaker normalization. Introduced as an extension of Hidden Markov Model (HMM), HMM2 differentiates itself from the regular HMM in terms of the emission density modeling, which is done by a set of state-de ...
This thesis presents a PhD work on offline cursive handwriting recognition, the automatic transcription of cursive data when only its image is available. Two main approaches were used in the literature to solve the problem. The first one attempts to segmen ...

The problem we address in this paper is, whether the feature extraction module trained on large amounts of task independent data, can improve the performance of stochastic models? We show that when there is only a small amount of task specific training dat ...
