Foreword Looking back the past 30 years. we have seen steady
progress made in the area of speech science and technology. I still
remember the excitement in the late seventies when Texas
Instruments came up with a toy named "Speak-and-Spell" which was
based on a VLSI chip containing the state-of-the-art linear
prediction synthesizer. This caused a speech technology fever among
the electronics industry. Particularly. applications of automatic
speech recognition were rigorously attempt ed by many companies.
some of which were start-ups founded just for this purpose.
Unfortunately. it did not take long before they realized that
automatic speech rec ognition technology was not mature enough to
satisfy the need of customers. The fever gradually faded away. In
the meantime. constant efforts have been made by many researchers
and engi neers to improve the automatic speech recognition
technology. Hardware capabilities have advanced impressively since
that time. In the past few years. we have been witnessing and
experiencing the advent of the "Information Revolution." What might
be called the second surge of interest to com mercialize speech
technology as a natural interface for man-machine communication
began in much better shape than the first one. With computers much
more powerful and faster. many applications look realistic this
time. However. there are still tremendous practical issues to be
overcome in order for speech to be truly the most natural interface
between humans and machines."
