  Problems include the detection of the endpoints of the actual speech in a given waveform and the varying speed or volume of a given speech signal. Several techniques are used to solve the various problems discussed above. A clever endpoint detection algorithm is utilized to determine the beginning and end of speech in any given waveform. Finally, dynamic time warping is used to compensate for the varying speed of a person's speech. This is much more effective than linear scaling to map one signal to another.
