The classical approach to build an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system uses different feature extraction methods at the front end and various parameter classification techniques at the back end. The Mel-frequency cepstral coefficients (MFCC) and perceptual linear prediction (PLP) techniques are the conventional approaches used for many years for feature extraction, and the hidden Markov model (HMM) has been the most obvious selection for feature classification. However, the performance of MFCC-HMM and PLP-HMM-based ASR system degrades in real-time environments. The proposed work discusses the implementation of discriminatively trained Hindi ASR system using noise robust integrated features and refined HMM model. It sequentially combines MFCC with PLP and MFCC with gammatone-frequency cepstral coefficient (GFCC) to obtain MF-PLP and MF-GFCC integrated feature vectors, respectively. The HMM parameters are refined using genetic algorithm (GA) and particle swarm optimization (PSO). Discriminative training of acoustic model using maximum mutual information (MMI) and minimum phone error (MPE) is preformed to enhance the accuracy of the proposed system. The results show that discriminative training using MPE with MF-GFCC integrated feature vector and PSO-HMM parameter refinement gives significantly better results than the other implemented techniques.
