Abstract

In this paper, we present a comparison between a few clustering algorithms including K-means clustering (KMC), Artificial Neural Network (ANN)-based Self-Organization Map (SOM), and Fuzzy C-means (FCM) clustering for the determination of number of phonemes present in a spoken Assamese word. Here, a block is designed to determine the number of phonemes present in a particular speech dataset. The phoneme count determination technique takes some initial decision about the possible number of phonemes present in a particular word. Comparing the success rate of correct decision from the proposed clustering techniques it is observed that the SOM-based technique provides more correct decisions compared to KMC-based technique and FCM-based approach provides even better decisions than the SOM-based technique. The results show that FCM generates better performance for all the cases considered.
