| Summary: | This paper presents a study of a Malay speaker dependent recognition using improved
Neural Network (NN). The performances are evaluated for recog-nition of the isolated
Malay digits of "0" through "9". The Error Backpropagation (BP) and an improved error
signal of the BP are used in this study. Experiments are carried out by comparing the
recognition rates and convergence time of the standard BP and improved BP, as well as
the effects of normalisation techniques on Malay speaker dependent data. The utter-ances
are represented using the Linear Prediction Coding (LPC) method. The results show that
the improved BP outperforms the standard BP in terms of its convergence with better
recognition rates for unnormalised data. For the effects of normalisation data, the unit
simple method gives better result compared to unit range and unit variance with
improved BP gives faster convergence and higher recognition rates |
