Feature space reduction in ethnically diverse Malaysian English accents classification
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2013)
In this paper we propose a reduced dimensional space of statistical descriptors of mel-bands spectral energy (MBSE) vectors for accent classification of Malaysian English (MalE) speakers caused by diverse ethnics. Principle ...
Classification of speaker accent using hybrid DWT-LPC features and K-nearest neighbors in ethnically diverse Malaysian English
(IEEE Conference Publications, 2012-12)
Accent is a major cause of variability in automatic speaker-independent speech recognition systems. Under certain circumstances, this event introduces unsatisfactory performance of the systems. In order to circumvent this ...
Statistical formant descriptors with linear predictive coefficients for accent classification
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2013-06)
Accent is a special trait of human speech that can deliver some information about a speaker's background. At the same time it is one of the profound factors that affects the intelligibility and performance of speech ...
