Publication number: 20090177466Abstract: The present invention provides a method and apparatus for detecting speech spectral peaks and a speech recognition method and system. The method for detecting speech spectral peaks comprises detecting speech spectral peak candidates from power spectrum of the speech, and removing noise peaks from the speech spectral peak candidates according to peak duration and/or peak positions of adjacent frames, to detect speech spectral peaks. In the present invention, reliable speech spectral peaks can be obtained by removing noise peaks using the limitations of peak duration and adjacent frames in the detection of the speech spectral peaks.
