Abstract(in English) A speech recognition framework in smart speakers and smart phones require a network connection, which increases the burden on the user, such as an increase in the amount of data communication and knowledge of the network. Also, in order to realize high recognition accuracy, it is necessary to properly construct acoustic models and language models. However, they require a huge cost and hamper new entry. In order to deal with these problems, I have developed a voice user interface for device operation with a standalone word recognition method. This interface reduces the burden on the network by implementing it as a standalone type, and greatly improves usability by frontal face detection. Furthermore, in consideration of the application scene of this interface, feature normalization and multi-condition training were introduced in order to realize high recognition performance in noisy environments. In this paper, we describe the flow of the developed interface in detail, show the experiment results under noisy environments, and finally introduce the adjustable bed with this voice user interface.
