Speech-Input Multi-Target Machine Translation
نویسندگان
چکیده
In order to simultaneously translate speech into multiple languages an extension of stochastic finite-state transducers is proposed. In this approach the speech translation model consists of a single network where acoustic models (in the input) and the multilingual model (in the output) are embedded. The multi-target model has been evaluated in a practical situation, and the results have been compared with those obtained using several mono-target models. Experimental results show that the multi-target one requires less amount of memory. In addition, a single decoding is enough to get the speech translated into multiple languages.

An Integrated Architecture for Speech-Input Multi-Target Machine Translation
The aim of this work is to show the ability of finite-state transducers to simultaneously translate speech into multiple languages. Our proposal deals with an extension of stochastic finite-state transducers that can produce more than one output at the same time. These kind of devices offer great versatility for the integration with other finite-state devices such as acoustic models in order to...
متن کاملUsing same-language machine translation to create alternative target sequences for text-to-speech synthesis
Modern speech synthesis systems attempt to produce speech utterances from an open domain of words. In some situations, the synthesiser will not have the appropriate units to pronounce some words or phrases accurately but it still must attempt to pronounce them. This paper presents a hybrid machine translation and unit selection speech synthesis system. The machine translation system was trained...
متن کاملListen and Translate: A Proof of Concept for End-to-End Speech-to-Text Translation
Current speech translation systems integrate (loosely or closely) two main modules: source language speech recognition (ASR) and source-to-target text translation (MT). In these approaches, source language text transcript (as a sequence or as a graph) appears as mandatory to produce a text hypothesis in the target language. In the meantime, deep neural networks have yielded breakthroughs in dif...
متن کاملRobust machine translation for multi-domain tasks
In this thesis, we investigate and extend the phrase-based approach to statistical machine translation. Due to improved concepts and algorithms, the quality of the generated translation hypotheses has been significantly improved in recent years. Still, the translation quality leaves a lot to be desired when going beyond traditional translation tasks, such as newswire articles, and when addressi...
متن کاملTowards Simultaneous Interpreting: The Timing of Incremental Machine Translation and Speech Synthesis
In simultaneous interpreting, human experts incrementally construct and extend partial hypotheses about the source speaker’s message, and start to verbalize a corresponding message in the target language, based on a partial translation – which may have to be corrected occasionally. They commence the target utterance in the hope that they will be able to finish understanding the source speaker’s...
