Hand-Engineered Components Can Limit Performance
Hand-engineered components can limit system performance by throwing away information or forcing an imperfect intermediate representation. In the speech pipeline, MFCC features simplify the audio signal and phonemes are an imperfect representation of speech sounds.

Why do MFCC features limit the potential performance of a speech recognition system?
True or False: Phonemes are an invention of linguists and represent an imperfect approximation of speech sounds.
MFCCs provide a reasonable summary of audio input but also _____ the signal by throwing some information away.
Match each speech pipeline component to the specific limitation it introduces.
Order the reasoning chain explaining how a phoneme representation limits speech system performance.
What is the consequence when a speech algorithm is forced to use a phoneme representation that is a poor approximation of reality?
True or False: MFCCs provide a complete, lossless representation of the audio input signal.
Forcing an algorithm to use a phoneme representation will _____ the speech system's performance.
Match each speech pipeline example to the type of limitation it exemplifies.
Order the conceptual progression from understanding MFCCs to recognizing their impact on speech pipeline performance.
