Abstract:
A system for Swedish isolated word recognition has been developed, intended for use in an intelligent news reader agent for elderly care. The system uses linear time normalization of feature time series, as well as optimization (with a genetic algorithm) of both feature selection and feature weighting. The optimization of feature selection results in a potentially important decrease in the time needed to recognize a spoken word, while maintaining speech recognition performance.
