Abstract

In this paper, we discuss the user-customized interaction for intelligent home environments. The interactive system is based upon the integrated techniques using both speech and face recognition. For essential modules, the speech recognition and synthesis were basically used for a virtual interaction between user and the proposed system. In experiments, particularly, the real-time speech recognizer based on the HM-Net(Hidden Markov Network) was incorporated into the proposed system. Besides, the face identification was adopted to customize home environments for a specific user. In evaluation, the results showed that the proposed system was useful and easy to use for intelligent home environments, even though the performance of the speech recognizer was not better than the simulation results owing to the ambient noisy environments.
