摘要:
Most of the speech segmentation works are based on the thresholds of parameters to segment the speech data into phonemic units or syllabic units. In this paper, we formulate the threshold decision as a clustering problem. Feature parameters extracted from the analysis frame are clustered into three types: silence, consonants, and vowels. Distributed fuzzy rules which have been used in clustering the numerical data are used for this task. The distributed fuzzy rules, which do not need many training data, have good performance in clustering problems and are beneficial for clustering the features of speech data. Such a method, however, has many fuzzy if-then rules. So, we propose a genetic-algorithm-based method for selecting a small number of significant fuzzy if-then rules to construct a compact fuzzy classification system with high classification power. Effectiveness of this approach has been substantiated by classification experiments for continuous radio news speech samples uttered by two females and two males
