Evaluation of formant-like features for automatic speech recognition 1
This study investigates possibilities to find a low-dimensional, formant-related physical representation of speech signals, which is suitable for automatic speech recognition. This aim is motivated by the fact that formants are known to be discriminant features for speech recognition. Combinations of automatically extracted formant-like features and state-of-the-art, noise-robust features have previously been shown to be more robust in adverse conditions than state-of-the-art features alone. However, it is not clear
