A New Keyword Spotting Approach Based on Reward Function

Colloque avec actes et comité de lecture. nationale.National audienceIn this paper, we compare the performance achieved by different word-spotting techniques based on hidden Markov models. We propose two methods to detect keywords, the first one uses a GMM (Gaussian Mixture Model) as a filler model to absorb the out-of-vocabulary words. The second is an alternative approach which does not attempt to model out-of-vocabulary words, instead, it uses buckled phonemes basedgrammar. Furthermore, it uses different reward functions to favourite the recognition of the keywords phonemes
