Parsing transcripts of speech
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present an analysis of parser performance on speech data, comparing word type and token frequency distributions with written data, and evaluating parse accuracy by length of input string. We find that parser performance tends to deteriorate with increasing length of string, more so for spoken than for written texts. We train an alternative parsing model with added speech data and demonstrate improvements in accuracy on speech-units, with no deterioration in performance on written text.

An improved joint model: POS tagging and dependency parsing
Dependency parsing is a way of syntactic parsing and a natural language that automatically analyzes the dependency structure of sentences, and the input for each sentence creates a dependency graph. Part-Of-Speech (POS) tagging is a prerequisite for dependency parsing. Generally, dependency parsers do the POS tagging task along with dependency parsing in a pipeline mode. Unfortunately, in pipel...

In this paper, the role of Part-of-Speech (POS) tagging for parsing in automatic processing of the Persian language is studied. To this end, the impact of the quality of POS tagging as well as the impact of the quantity of information available in the POS tags on parsing are studied. To reach the goals, three parsing scenarios are proposed and compared. In the first scenario, the parser assigns...
متن کاملWide-coverage parsing of speech transcripts
This paper discusses the performance difference of wide-coverage parsers on small-domain speech transcripts. Two parsers (C&C CCG and RASP) are tested on the speech transcripts of two different domains (parent-child language, and picture descriptions). The performance difference between the domain-independent parsers and two domain-trained parsers (MSTParser and MEGRASP) is substantial, with a ...
متن کاملUsing dependency parsing and machine learning for factoid question answering on spoken documents
This paper presents our experiments in question answering for speech corpora. These experiments focus on improving the answer extraction step of the QA process. We present two approaches to answer extraction in question answering for speech corpora that apply machine learning to improve the coverage and precision of the extraction. The first one is a reranker that uses only lexical information,...
متن کاملDetecting Mild Cognitive Impairment by Exploiting Linguistic Information from Transcripts
Here we seek to automatically identify Hungarian patients suffering from mild cognitive impairment (MCI) based on linguistic features collected from their speech transcripts. Our system uses machine learning techniques and is based on several linguistic features like characteristics of spontaneous speech as well as features exploiting morphological and syntactic parsing. Our results suggest tha...
