Abstract

The classi cation of a word-pair speci c model versus a gen- eral model is being evaluated. Word-pairs are di cult for non- native speakers and automatic speech recognition to recognize and classify as they are very similar in features. The classi ca- tion is carried out by a toolkit that uses hidden markov models on the audio les. Manual analysis is shown to indicate how di cult speech is to comprehend and how it di ers per person. Signi cant di erences on performance have been found between the general model and the word-pair model carried out by the toolkit.
