Summary: | Template matching is an alternative to perform speech recognition. However, the template matching encountered problems due to speaking rate variability, in which there exist timing differences between the two utterances. Speech has a constantly changing signal, thus it is almost impossible to get the same signal for two same utterances. The problem of time differences can be solved through DTW algorithm: warping the template with the test utterance based on their similarities. So, DTW algorithm actually is a procedure, which combines both warping and distance measurement. DTW is considered as one effective method in speech pattern recognition, however the bad side of this method is that it requires a long processing time plus large storage capacity, especially for real time recognitions. |
