Artificial intelligence and other approaches to speech understanding: reflections on methodology
نویسنده
چکیده
This paper characterizes the methodology of Artificial Intelligence by looking at research in speech understanding, a field where AI approaches contrast starkly with the alternatives, particularly engineering approaches. Four values of AI stand out as influential: ambitious goals, introspective plausibility, computational elegance, and wide significance. The paper also discusses the utility and larger significance of these values.

متن کاملSecond Thoughts on an Artificial Intelligence Approach to Speech Understanding
A few years ago I undertook a new speech understanding research project, aiming to explore innovative techniques rather than pursue short-term results. My method was to build on the classic 1970s AI approaches to speech, as an alternative to the current mainstream speech understanding research methods. This led to a system that was competitive, both in elegance and performance, with other recen...
متن کاملInvestigating the formal effect of rear wall structure on acoustic parameters of speech halls (Research Article)
Referring to the rear wall in a hall is the furthest element rather than the voice source, therefor the reflections of this structural member play important role in music and speech intelligibly, especially for one-third behind audiences. Hence the form of these structures can be very effective in the acoustical quality of speech halls and auditoria. In this study, four formic structures are ex...

متن کاملOn the Relationship between Emotional Intelligence and Directive Speech Acts Preference
Language and emotion are two related systems in use, in that one system (emotions) impacts the performance of the other (language). Both of them share their functionality in communication. Since the nature of foreign language classrooms is ideally interactional, emotional intelligence (EI) gains importance. The aim of this study was to find out whether one's total emotional quotient and its com...
