Towards Advanced Speech Signal Processing: A Statistical Perspective on Convolution-Based Architectures and It’s Applications

This article surveys convolution-based models convolutional neural networks (CNNs), Conformers, ResNets, and CRNNs-as speech signal processing models and provide their statistical backgrounds and speech recognition, speaker identification, emotion recognition, and speech enhancement applications. Through comparative training cost assessment, model size, accuracy and speed assessment, we compare the strengths and weaknesses of each model, identify potential errors and propose avenues for further research, emphasising the central role it plays in advancing applications of speech technologies.
