Funded Activity Summary

Robust feature extraction for automatic speech recognition. Speech is perhaps the most natural and efficient mode of communication for humans. Therefore, it has always been a dream for many people to communicate with machines via speech. Significant advances have been made in the last five decades in the area of automatic speech recognition. Though the currently available speech recognisers work reasonably well in noise-free office environments, their performance deteriorates drastically when they are deployed in real-life situations due to the presence of background noise and other distortions. The problem of robust speech recognition will be researched in this project.
