TDNN-Based Speech Recognition Implementation Using Simulink

This document focuses on "Speech Recognition with TDNN using Simulink," exploring the application of Time Delay Neural Networks (TDNN) in speech recognition systems. TDNNs are particularly effective for processing temporal patterns in speech signals through their time-delayed connections between layers. The implementation leverages Simulink's graphical programming environment to construct and simulate the TDNN model, using block diagrams to represent network layers and time-delay components. Key implementation aspects include configuring input buffers for temporal sequence handling, designing hidden layers with delayed connections to capture phoneme transitions, and implementing output classification blocks for speech pattern recognition. The Simulink model typically incorporates Signal Processing Blockset for feature extraction (like MFCC coefficients) and Neural Network Toolbox blocks for constructing the TDNN architecture with configurable time delays between layers. By integrating TDNN into speech recognition pipelines through Simulink, developers can visually design neural network architectures that effectively model time-dependent speech features, potentially improving recognition accuracy through temporal context awareness. The graphical simulation environment allows for real-time testing and optimization of network parameters, including delay durations and layer configurations, before deployment to production systems.
