Abstract

Recently, multi-modal recognition has become a hot topic in the field of Ubiquitous, Speech and gesture recognition, especially, are the most important modalities of human-to-machine interaction. Although speech recognition has been explored extensively and successfully developed, it still encounters serious errors in noisy environments. In such cases, gestures, a by-product of speech, can be used to help interpret the speech. In this paper, we propose a method of multi-modal fusion recognition of speech-gesture using integrated discrete probability density function omit estimated by a histogram. The method is tested with a microphone and a 3-axis accelerator in a real-time experiment. The test has two parts : a method of add-and-accumulate speech and gesture probability density functions respectively, and a more complicated method of creating new probability density function from integrating the two PDF’s of speech and gesture.
