SYSTEM AND METHOD OF USING NEURAL TRANSFORMS OF ROBUST AUDIO FEATURES FOR SPEECH PROCESSING

A system and method for processing speech includes receiving a first information stream associated with speech, the first information stream comprising micro-modulation features and receiving a second information stream associated with the speech, the second information stream comprising features. The method includes combining, via a non-linear multilayer perceptron, the first information stream and the second information stream to yield a third information stream. The system performs automatic speech recognition on the third information stream. The third information stream can also be used for training HMMs.
