Originální abstrakt

This paper describes several approaches to keyword spotting (KWS) for informal continuous speech. We compare acoustic keyword spotting, spotting in word lattices generated by large vocabulary continuous speech recognition and a hybrid approach making use of phoneme lattices generated by a phoneme recognizer. The systems are compared on carefully defined test data extracted from ICSI meeting database. The advantages and drawbacks of different approaches are discussed. The acoustic and phoneme-lattice based KWS are based on a phoneme recognizer making use of temporal-pattern (TRAP) feature extraction and posterior estimation using neural nets. We show its superiority over traditional HMM/GMM systems. A posterior probability transformation function is introduced for posterior based acoustic keyword spotting. We also propose a posterior masking algorithm to speed-up acoustic keyword spotting.
