TY - CONF AB - In this paper we present a comparison of the recently proposed Soft-Feature Distributed Speech Recognition (SFDSR) with the two evaluated candidate codecs for Speech Enabled Services over wireless networks: Adaptive Multirate Codec (AMR) and the ETSI Extended Advanced Front-End for Distributed Speech Recognition (XAFE). It is shown that SFDSR achieves the best recognition performance on a simulated GSM transmission, followed by XAFE and AMR.We also present some new results concerning SFDSR which demonstrate the versatility of the approach. Further, a simple method is introduced which considerably reduces the computational effort.
