Abstract

Speech recognition is one of the entrancing fields in the zone of computer science. Exactness of speech recognition framework may decrease because of the nearness of noise exhibited by the speech signal. Consequently, noise removal is a fundamental advance in automatic speech recognition (ASR) system. ASR is researched for various languages in light of the fact that every language has its particular highlights. Particularly, the requirement for ASR framework in Tamil language has been expanded broadly over the most recent couple of years. In this work, bidirectional recurrent neural network (BRNN) with self-organizing map (SOM)-based classification scheme is suggested for Tamil speech recognition. At first, the input speech signal is pre-prepared by utilizing Savitzky–Golay filter keeping in mind the end goal to evacuate the background noise and to improve the signal. At that point, Multivariate Autoregressive based highlights by presenting discrete cosine transformation piece to give a proficient signal investigation. And in addition, perceptual linear predictive coefficients likewise separated to enhance the classification accuracy. The feature vector is shifted in measure, for picking the right length of feature vector SOM utilized. At long last, Tamil digits and words are ordered by utilizing BRNN classifier where the settled length feature vector from SOM is given as input, named as BRNN-SOM. The experimental analysis demonstrates that the suggested conspire accomplished preferable outcomes looked at over exist deep neural network–hidden Markov model algorithm regarding signal-to-noise ratio, classification accuracy, and mean square error.
