Abstract
We propose a compact and noise robust embedded speech recognition system implemented on microprocessors aiming for sophisticated HMIs (human machine interfaces) of car information systems. The compactness is essential for embedded systems because there are strict restrictions of CPU (central processing unit) power and available memory capacities. In this paper, first we report noise robust acoustic HMMs (hidden Markov models) and a compact spectral subtraction (SS) method after exhausting evaluation stages using real speech data recorded at car running environments. Next, we propose very novel memory assignment of acoustic models based on the product codes or sub-vector quantization technique resulting on 1 fourth memory reduction for the 2000-word vocabulary.
