Abstract(in English) We have studied the detection of sleepiness or the detection of the change of feelings using NAM microphones. NAM microphones is robust to noisy environment and this microphone is usable for speech recognition or speech enhancement under the noisy environment. However, the obtained sound from NAM microphone is attenuated on high frequency domain and become in articulate sound. In this paper, we examined the enhancement of the speech obtained from NAM microphone using analysis-synthesis system using cepstral parameters.
