Description
This handbook plays a fundamental role in sustainable progress in speech research and development. With an accessible format and with accompanying DVD-Rom, it targets three categories of readers: graduate students, professors and active researchers in academia, and engineers in industry who need to understand or implement some specific algorithms for their speech-related products. It is a superb source of application-oriented, authoritative and comprehensive information about these technologies, this work combines the established knowledge derived from research in such fast evolving disciplines as Signal Processing and Communications, Acoustics, Computer Science and Linguistics.
Reviews / Votes
From the reviews: "This massive volume contains 53 chapters and covers just about all aspects of the field of speech processing. ... The editors are commended for producing a valuable tool in the understanding of speech and speech synthesis/recognition. The book is a valuable addition to the bookshelf of researchers, speech scientists, and engineers." (Richard J. Peppin, International Journal of Acoustics and Vibration, Vol. 13 (1), 2008) "This book is a comprehensive overview of most of the major topics associated with speech processing written by the most renowned authors in each topic. The book is well structured with a clearly organized topics. It is intended for use by the researcher ... . book is organized in nine sections that cover all current speech applications. ... In conclusion, I would highly recommend that anyone interested in speech processing have a copy of this encyclopaedic work."

From October 1995 to May 2003, he was first a Consultant and then a Member of the Technical Staff at Bell Laboratories, Murray Hill, NJ, USA. In May 2003, he joined the University of Quebec, INRS-EMT, in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, as a professor. His research interests are in signal processing, acoustic signal processing, and multimedia communications. Dr. Benesty received the 2001 Best Paper Award from the IEEE Signal Processing Society. He co-authored the books "Acoustic MIMO Signal Processing" (Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 2006) and "Advances in Network and Acoustic Echo Cancellation" (Springer-Verlag, Berlin, 2001). He is also a co-editor/co-author of four other books.M. M. SondhiM. Mohan Sondhi is a consultant at Avaya Research Labs, Basking Ridge, New Jersey. Prior to joining Avaya he spent 39 years at Bell Labs, from where he retired in 2001. He holds undergraduate degrees in Physics and Electrical Communication Engineering, and M.S and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering. At Bell Labs he conducted research in speech signal processing, echo cancellation, acoustical inverse problems, speech recognition, articulatory models for analysis and synthesis of speech and modeling of auditory and visual processing by humans.
