These advances include: the adoption of a  statistical pattern recognition paradigm; the use of the hidden Markov  modeling framework to characterize both the spectral and the temporal  variations in the speech signal; the use of a large set of speech  utterance examples from a large population of speakers to train the  hidden Markov models of some fundamental speech units; the  organization of speech and language knowledge sources into a  structural finite state network; and the use of dynamic, programming  based heuristic search methods to find the best word sequence in the  lexical network corresponding to the spoken utterance. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAutomatic Speech and Speaker Recognition: Advanced Topics\u003c\/em\u003e groups  together in a single volume a number of important topics on speech and  speaker recognition, topics which are of fundamental importance, but  not yet covered in detail in existing textbooks. Although no explicit  partition is given, the book is divided into five parts: Chapters  1-2 are devoted to technology overviews; Chapters 3-12  discuss acoustic modeling of fundamental speech units and lexical  modeling of words and pronunciations; Chapters 13-15 address  the issues related to flexibility and robustness; Chapter 16-18  concern the theoretical and practical issues of search; Chapters  19-20 give two examples of algorithm and implementational  aspects for recognition system realization. \u003cbr\u003e  \u003cem\u003eAudience:\u003c\/em\u003e A reference book for speech researchers and graduate  students interested in pursuing potential research on the topic.
