Abstract
Apparatus for speech recognition, having each phoneme as a fundamental recognition unit, recognizes input speech by discriminating phonemes in the input speech. The apparatus comprises a memory for storing phoneme standard patterns of phonemes or phoneme groups; a spectrum analyzer for obtaining parameters indicative of the input speech signal spectrum; a statistical distance measure similarity calculator calculates the degree of similarity between the output of the spectrum analyzer and standard patterns stored in the memory; a segmentation portion for segmenting by using time-dependent low- and high-frequency power variations of the input speech signal and results from the similarity calculator; and a phoneme discriminator for recognizing phonemes by using the results from the similarity calculator.
