Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) This paper is concerned with restriction of training section for concatenated training of phoneme HMM(Hidden Markov Model).The training section used for training concatenated phoneme HMM is whole speech data when conventional method is used.In this case,a large surplus of data is also used to re-estimate the model parameters,and,this may be the reason for poor recognition rate. Therefore restriction of training section is necessary to get preferable model parameters.For speaker-dependent phoneme recognition in Japanese continuous speech when whole context, excluding object phoneme,is known,the relationship between extent of training section and recognition rate is examined.By restriction of training section based on pause or hand-marking, same recognition rate as conventional training is obtained after about 1, 3 iteration number of training.Recognition error is reduced 60% at best.
