Bangla Speech Recognition System Using LPC and ANN
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This paper presents the Bangla speech recognition system. Bangla speech recognition system is divided mainly into two major parts. The first part is speech signal processing and the second part is speech pattern recognition technique. The speech processing stage consists of speech starting and end point detection, windowing, filtering, calculating the Linear Predictive Coding(LPC) and Cepstral Coefficients and finally constructing the codebook by vector quantization. The second part consists of pattern recognition system using Artificial Neural Network(ANN). Speech signals are recorded using an audio wave recorder in the normal room environment. The recorded speech signal is passed through the speech starting and end-point detection algorithm to detect the presence of the speech signal and remove the silence and pauses portions of the signals. The resulting signal is then filtered for the removal of unwanted background noise from the speech signals. The filtered signal is then windowed ensuring half frame overlap. After windowing, the speech signal is then subjected to calculate the LPC coefficient and Cepstral coefficient. The feature extractor uses a standard LPC Cepstrum coder, which converts the incoming speech signal into LPC Cepstrum feature space. The Self Organizing Map(SOM) Neural Network makes each variable length LPC trajectory of an isolated word into a fixed length LPC trajectory and thereby making the fixed length feature vector, to be fed into to the recognizer. The structures of the neural network is designed with Multi Layer Perceptron approach and tested with 3, 4, 5 hidden layers using the Transfer functions of Tanh Sigmoid for the Bangla speech recognition system. Comparison among different structures of Neural Networks conducted here for a better understanding of the problem and its possible solutions.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
