Abstract
A Lombard voice recognition method for recognizing a voice input in a noisy background includes a step of matching and a step of warping. The step of matching matches a frequency spectrum of a feature pattern derived from the input voice to a frequency spectrum of a standard pattern. The step of warping warps a lower frequency spectrum of the feature pattern than a lower frequency side with respect to a frequency axis in case that a noise level of the background in higher than a predetermined noise level.
