  Estimating the nonlinear dynamicial system which has generated a give n time series is considered. Traditionally this is achieved via two s eparate steps: first projecting the signal frames onto the state spac e and then estimating the predictive relationship between successive state vectors. In the method presented here, these two steps are perf ormed simultaneously, where both the projection and the prediction fu nctions are represented by MLPs. In addition, a measurement function, again represented by an MLP is used. This MLP maps each state vector to a sample of the given signal. The original estimation problem is then interpreted as a training (optimization) problem, and a backprop agation type training is proposed for solving it. The method proposed is tested both with an artificial time series produced by the Henon map and a speech signal.Performance is compared with results from pop ular traditional methods, which indicates a clear superiority for our new proposed method.

• Warakagoda, Narada Dilp & Johnsen, Magne Hallstein (1999). Neural network based optimal feature extraction for ASR. Show summary

  The procedure of calculating Mel Frequency based Cepstral Coefficient s (MFCC) is shown to resemble a three layer Multilayer Perceptron (ML P) like structure. Such an MLP is employed as a preprocessor in a hyb rid HMM-MLP system, and the possibility of optimizing the whole syste m as a single entity, with respect to a suitable criterion, is pointe d out. The system, together with the Maximal Mutual Information (MMI) criterion was tested on a speaker independent, five broad class, isl oated phoneme recognition task. The reported results of these prelimi nary experiments clearly indicate the advantage of optimizable prepro cessing.

• Warakagoda, Narada Dilp & Johnsen, Magne Hallstein (1997). Dynamical system models for speech recognition. Show summary

  An approach to Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) based on the theory of Nonlinear Dynamical systems is presented. The speech signal at a given tim considered as a scalar measurement of a the state of an unk nown multidimensional nonlinear dynamical system. Thus speech models with a small numbers of parameters are possible. Further, the concept of synchronization is introduced in order to perform robust nonlinea r prediction, i.e. with capasity to handle the highly variable nature of speech.
