Tibetan Syllable-Based Functional Chunk Boundary Identification
Tibetan syntactic functional chunk parsing is aimed at identifying syntactic constituents of Tibetan sentences. In this paper, based on the Tibetan syntactic functional chunk description system, we propose a method which puts syllables in groups instead of word segmentation and tagging and use the Conditional Random Fields (CRFs) to identify the functional chunk boundary of a sentence. Accordin...
متن کاملSonority Based Syllable Segmentation
This paper proposes a new method for detecting syllable boundaries. It is based on the sonority and it uses the so-called Sonority Sequencing Principle for the boundary detection. As acoustic correlate of the phonological concept of sonority we use the regularities present in the spectrogram of the signal. By finding the maxima of the sonority function we will be finding the syllable nuclei, wh...
متن کاملNew evidence for chunk-based models in word segmentation.
There is large evidence that infants are able to exploit statistical cues to discover the words of their language. However, how they proceed to do so is the object of enduring debates. The prevalent position is that words are extracted from the prior computation of statistics, in particular the transitional probabilities between syllables. As an alternative, chunk-based models posit that the se...
متن کاملTaking the child’s view: Syllable-based Bayesian inference as a (more) plausible statistical word segmentation strategy
Because knowledge of words plays a crucial role in acquisition and children seem to accomplish word segmentation very early (~7.5 months (Jusczyk et al., 1999; Echols et al., 1997; Jusczyk et al., 1993a)), many strategies have been proposed for how children learn to identify words in their native language. Because of experimental evidence that infants are sensitive to statistical information in...
متن کاملPerformance Limits for Envelope based Automatic Syllable Segmentation
In this paper the upper performance limits of automatic syllable segmentation algorithms using single or multiple frequency band envelopes as their primary segmentation feature are explored. Each algorithm is tested against the TIMIT corpus of continuous read speech. The results show that candidate matching rates as high as 99% can be achieved by segmentation based on a simple envelope, but onl...
