REPORT grangier:2005:idiap-05-67/IDIAP A Discriminative Decoder for the Recognition of Phoneme Sequences Grangier, David Bengio, Samy EXTERNAL http://publications.idiap.ch/attachments/reports/2005/grangier-rr-05-67.pdf PUBLIC Idiap-RR-67-2005 2005 IDIAP In this report, we propose a discriminative decoder for phoneme recognition, i.e. the identification of the uttered phoneme sequence from a speech recording. This task is solved as a 3 step process: a phoneme classifier first classifies each accoustic frame, then temporal consistency features (TCF) are extracted from the phoneme classifier outputs, and finally a sequence decoder identifies the phoneme sequence according to the TCF.
