چکیده

This paper describes the research efforts of the “Hidden Speaking Mode” group participating in the 1996 summer workshop on speech recognition. The goal of this project is to model pronunciation variations that occur in conversational speech in general and, more specifically, to investigate the use of a hidden speaking mode to represent systematic variations that are correlated with the word sequence (e.g. predictable from syntactic structure). This paper describes the theoretical formulation of hidden mode modeling, as well as some results in error analysis, language modeling and pronunciation modeling.

Modeling Cross-morpheme Pro for Korean Large Vocabulary Cont

In this paper, we describe a cross-morpheme pronunciation variation model which is especially useful for constructing morpheme-based pronunciation lexicon for Korean LVCSR. There are a lot of pronunciation variations occurring at morpheme boundaries in continuous speech. Since phonemic context together with morphological category and morpheme boundary information affect Korean pronunciation var...

Pronunciation lexicon modeling and design for Korean large vocabulary continuous speech recognition

In this paper, we describe a pronunciation lexicon model which is especially useful for constructing morpheme-based pronunciation lexicon to improve the performance of a Korean LVCSR. There are a lot of pronunciation variations occurring at morpheme boundaries in continuous speech. For modeling of cross-morpheme pronunciation variations, we usually used a context-dependent multiple pronunciatio...

English Pronunciation Instruction: A Literature Review

English pronunciation instruction is difficult for some reasons. Teachers are left without clear guidelines and are faced with contradictory practices for pronunciation instruction. There is no well-established systematic method of deciding what to teach, when, and how to do it. As a result of these problems, pronunciation instruction is less important and teachers are not very comfortable in t...
