음성신호는 잡음 또는 전송 채널의 특성에 의하여 왜곡되고, 왜곡된 음성은 음성인식 및 화자인식의 성능을 크게 저하시킨다. 이러한 문제점을 극복하기 위해 본 논문에서는 Gaussian mixture model (GMM)에 적용된 신호대잡음비 (SNR)기반 신뢰도 가중 기법[1][2]을 Hidden Markov model(HMM) 디코더에 변형하여 적용하였다. HMM 디코더 변형은 HMM 상태별 관측확률을 논문 [1]에서 제시된 신뢰도로 가중함으로써 이루어졌다. 제안한 방법의 성능을 확인하기 위해 ETRI에서 만든 한국어 화자인식용 휴대폰 음성 DB를 사용하여 문맥종속 화자식별 실험을 하였다. 실험결과 기존 방법에 비해 제안한 방법의 화자인식률이 크게 향상됨을 확인 할 수 있었다.

Recently, the neural network-based deep learning algorithm has dramatically improved performance compared to the classical Gaussian mixture model based hidden Markov model (GMM-HMM) automatic speech recognition (ASR) system. In addition, researches on end-to-end (E2E) speech recognition systems integrating language modeling and decoding processes have been actively conducted to better utilize the advantages of deep learning techniques. In general, E2E ASR systems consist of multiple layers of encoder-decoder structure with attention. Therefore, E2E ASR systems require data with a large amount of speech-text paired data in order to achieve good performance. Obtaining speech-text paired data requires a lot of human labor and time, and is a high barrier to building E2E ASR system. Therefore, there are previous studies that improve the performance of E2E ASR system using relatively small amount of speech-text paired data, but most studies have been conducted by using only speech-only data or text-only data. In this study, we proposed a semi-supervised training method that enables E2E ASR system to perform well in corpus in different domains by using both speech or text only data. The proposed method works effectively by adapting to different domains, showing good performance in the target domain and not degrading much in the source domain.

This paper proposes a new method for a hierarchical analysis of human gait by dividing the motion into gait direction and gait posture using the tool of dynamic Bayesian network. Based on Factorial HMM (FHMM), which is a type of DBN, we design the Gait Motion Decoder (GMD) in a circular architecture of state space, which fits nicely to human walking behavior. Most previous studies focused on human identification and were limited in certain viewing angles and forwent modeling of the walking action. But this work makes an explicit and separate modeling of pedestrian pose and posture to recognize gait direction and detect orientation change. Experimental results showed 96.5% in pose identification. The work is among the first efforts to analyze gait motions into gait pose and gait posture, and it could be applied to a broad class of human activities in a number of situations.
