Fast and accurate extraction of formants for speech recognition using a plurality of complex filters in parallel

摘要

A method and apparatus are provided for determining an instantaneous frequency and an instantaneous bandwidth of a speech resonance of a speech signal. The method includes receiving a speech signal having a real component; filtering the speech signal so as to generate a plurality of filtered signals such that the real component and an imaginary component of the speech signal are reconstructed; and generating a first estimated frequency and a first estimated bandwidth of a speech resonance of the speech signal based on both a first filtered signal of the plurality of filtered signals and a single-lag delay of the first filtered signal.
