Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a game-theoretic approach for automatic speech segmentation and recognition. Speech segmentation and recognition are performed jointly by obtaining a Nash equilibrium solution. The proposed algorithm is tested on TIMIT database and compared against the Viterbi algorithm. Boundaries detected using the proposed algorithm are more accurate than the boundaries detected using the Viterbi algorithm.
