Abstract

In this paper, after an a review of the previous work done in this field, the most frequently used approach using Hidden Markov Model (HMM) is used for implementation for phonetic segmentation. A baseline HMM phonetic segmentation tool is used for segmentation and analysis of speech at phonetic level. The results are approximately same as obtained using manual segmentation.
