  text: Soft-feature based speech recognition, which is an example of uncertainty
    decoding, has been proven to be a robust error mitigation method for distributed
    speech recognition over wireless channels exhibiting bit errors. In this paper
    we extend this concept to packet-oriented transmissions. The a posteriori probability
    density function of the lost feature vector, given the closest received neighbours,
    is computed. In the experiments, the nearest frame repetition, which is shown
    to be equivalent to the MAP estimate, outperforms the MMSE estimate for long bursts.
    Taking the variance into account at the speech recognition stage results in superior
    performance compared to classical schemes using point estimates. A computationally
    and memory efficient implementation of the proposed packet loss compensation scheme
    based on table lookup is presented
