چکیده

In this paper, a new feature extraction method is presented based on spectro-temporal representation of speech signal for phoneme classification. In the proposed method, an artificial neural network approach is used to cluster spectro-temporal domain. Self-organizing map artificial neural network (SOM) was applied to clustering of features space. Scale, rate and frequency were used as spatial information of each point and the magnitude component was used as similarity attribute in clustering algorithm. Three mechanisms were considered to select attributes in spectro-temporal features space. Spatial information of clusters, the magnitude component of samples in spectro-temporal domain and the average of the amplitude components of each cluster points were considered as secondary features. The proposed features vectors were used for phonemes classification. The results demonstrate that a significant improvement is obtained in classification rate of different sets of phonemes in comparison to previous clustering-based methods. The obtained results of new features indicate the system error is compensated in all vowels and consonants subsets in compare to weighted K-means clustering.

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
