Modeling Frequent Allophones in Jap

In this paper, we describe a technique to model frequent allophones in Japanese speech recognition. The Consonant-Vowel syllabic structure (CV) is dominant in Japanese. Based on frequency, the distribution of CV pairs is rather skewed. Isolating out the most frequent allophones through the use of additional phonemes in acoustic modeling can achieve better recognition accuracy. By introducing te...

My affair with the JAP.

DURING World War II, the US Army Quartermaster Corps established a Climatic Research Laboratory on the second floor of an old building of the Pacific Mills in Lawrence, MA, on the banks of the Merrimac River. The mission of this organization was to test equipment, particularly clothing, for the use of troops in the field, and the Pacific Mills had been chosen because it housed climatically cont...
