                    abstract = {Cepstral normalisation in automatic speech recognition is
  investigated in the context of robustness to additive noise.  It is
  argued that such normalisation leads naturally to a speech feature
  based on signal to noise ratio rather than absolute energy (or
  power).  Explicit calculation of this {\em SNR-cepstrum} by means of a
  noise estimate is shown to have theoretical and practical advantages
  over the usual (energy based) cepstrum.  The SNR-cepstrum is shown
  to be almost identical to the articulation index known in
  psycho-acoustics.  Combination of the SNR-cepstrum with the well
  known perceptual linear prediction method is shown to be beneficial
  in noisy environments.},
