    I'd like to get a solid understanding of the inner workings of Sphinx and similar software. So I'm looking for a good textbook that covers the following:

    • all the basics (FFT etc.)
    • MFCC
    • hidden Markov models (HMM)
    • dynamic time warping (DTW)

    I saw Nickolay recommend Spoken Language Processing (Huang) and Fundamentals of Speech Recognition (Rabiner) on other occations. But I can't find a table of contents for them, so I'm not sure whether they cover everything.

    In addition, it would be great if the book was well-written, that is, not too hard to follow. I have a Master's degree in computer science but only rudimentary knowledge of signal processing.

    Do you have any recommendations?

    The SLP textbook by Huang should cover all your listed topics
