Editorial Reviews

". . .provides a solid introduction to the basics of digital signal processing for speech and provides a comprehensive overview of classic recognition techniques. It would be ideal as a primary textbook."
—-The Canadian Journal of Information Science

From the Publisher

Introduces the basics of digital signal processing for speech, and overviews classic recognition techniques. The second edition adds sections on robust and flexible speech coding, corpus-based speech synthesis, theory and implementation of HMM, large-vocabulary continuous-speech recognition, speaker-independent and adaptive recognition, and robust algorithms against noise and channel variations.
