Minimal Feature Analysis for Isolated Digit Recognition for varying encoding rates in noisy environments

This research work is about recent development made in speech recognition. In this research work, analysis of isolated digit recognition in the presence of different bit rates and at different noise levels has been performed. This research work has been carried using audacity and HTK toolkit. Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is the recognition model which was used to perform this experiment. The feature extraction techniques used are Mel Frequency Cepstrum coefficient (MFCC), Linear Predictive Coding (LPC), perceptual linear predictive (PLP), mel spectrum (MELSPEC), filter bank (FBANK). There were three types of different noise levels which have been considered for testing of data. These include random noise, fan noise and random noise in real time environment. This was done to analyse the best environment which can used for real time applications. Further, five different types of commonly used bit rates at different sampling rates were considered to find out the most optimum bit rate.
