COMMON VARIANTS OF THE DYNAMIC PROGRAMMING FRAMEWORK
- Previously, we demonstrated fixed-endpoint DP.
- Relaxed endpoint and free endpoint solutions are also possible:
- Since the speech signal (or text) flows left to right, we can impose
"slope constraints" to improve performance and decrease computation:
- The slope constraints are implemented by limiting the search space
and imposing transition penalties.
- What aspects of the speech signal influence the design
of the slope constraints?
