A Voice Signal-Based Manipulation Method for the Bio-Remote Environment Control System Based on Candidate Word Discriminations

This paper proposes a voice signal-based manipulation method for the Bio-Remote environment control system. The proposed system learns relationships between multiple candidate words’ phonemes extracted by a largevocabulary speaker-independent model and control commands based on a self-learning look-up table. This allows the user to control various devices even if false recognition words are extracted. Experimental results showed that the method accurately discriminate slurred words (average discrimination rate: 93.9±2.40 [%]), and that participants were able to voluntarily control domestic appliances.This work was supported by JSPS KAKENHI Grant Number JP26330226
