Robust End Point Detection for Robot Speech Recognition Using Double Talk Detection

Abstract

This paper presents a robust speech end-point detector using double talk detection in echoic conditioned speech recognition robot. The proposed method consists of combining conventional end-point detector result and double talk detector result. We have tested the proposed method in isolated word recognition system under echoic conditioned environment. As a result, the proposed algorithm shows superior performance of 30 % to the available techniques in the points of speech recognition rates.
