FEATURE NORMALIZATION INPUTS TO FRONT END PROCESSING FOR AUTOMATIC SPEECH RECOGNITION
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by a computing device, a sequence of speech features that characterize an unknown speech input;
normalizing selected speech features of the sequence of speech features using a plurality of different feature normalizing functions; and
combining the normalized selected speech features to produce a sequence of mixed normalized speech features for automatic speech recognition.

Abstract
A computer-implemented method is described for front end speech processing for automatic speech recognition. A sequence of speech features which characterize an unknown speech input is received with a computer process. A first subset of the speech features is normalized with a computer process using a first feature normalizing function. A second subset of the speech features is normalized with a computer process using a second feature normalizing function different from the first feature normalizing function. The normalized speech features in the first and second subsets are combined with a computer process to produce a sequence of mixed normalized speech features for automatic speech recognition.
