MICROPHONE ARRAY BASED SPEECH RECOGNITION SYSTEM AND TARGET SPEECH EXTRACTING METHOD OF THE SYSTEM
First Claim
1. A microphone-array-based speech recognition system comprising:
- a signal separator which separates mixed signals input through a plurality of microphone into sound-source signals by an ICA algorithm;
a target speech extractor which extracts one target speech spoken for speech recognition from the sound-source signals separated by the signal separator; and
a speech recognition unit which recognizes a desired speech from the extracted target speech.

Abstract
A microphone-array-based speech recognition system using a blind source separation (BBS) and a target speech extraction method in the system are provided. The speech recognition system performs an independent component analysis (ICA) to separate mixed signals input through a plurality of microphone into sound-source signals, extracts one target speech spoken for speech recognition from the separated sound-source signals by using a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) or a hidden Markov Model (HMM), and automatically recognizes a desired speech from the extracted target speech. Accordingly, it is possible to obtain a high speech recognition rate even in a noise environment.
