Classification of speech dysfluencies with MFCC and LPCC features
The goal of this paper is to discuss comparison of speech parameterization methods: Mel-Frequency Cepstrum Coefficients (MFCC) and Linear Prediction Cepstrum Coefficients (LPCC) for recognizing the stuttered events. Speech samples from UCLASS are used for our analysis. The stuttered events are identified through manual segmentation and used for feature extraction. Two simple classifiers are used for testing the proposed features. Conventional validation method is used for testing the reliability of the classifier. The experimental investigation elucidates MFCC and LPCC features which can be used for identifying the stuttered events and LPCC features were slightly outperformed than MFCC features.
