| Summary: | This paper discusses and evaluates the effect of voice
Activity Detection (VAD) in an isolated Yoruba word ecognition system (IYWRS). The word database used in this paper are collected from 22 speakers by repeating the numbers 1 to 9 three times each. A hybrid configuration of Mel-Frequency Cepstral coefficient (MFCC) and Linear Predictive Coding (LPC) have been used to extract the
features of the speech samples. Artificial Neural Network algorithms are then used to classify these features. An overall accuracy of about 60% has been achieved from the two proposed feature extraction methods. |
