Session 12: Speech Recognition II

In the first paper, Jim Glass sketched some of the avenues pursued in the MIT SUMMIT work. They have been working on input normalization, different segmental representations, and issues in experimental phonetics. The auditory model requires careful normalization (a condition also explored by IBM in several ICASSP papers), and a non-linear adaptive technique was described without results. Bounda...

FrAG, a Hybrid Constraint Grammar Parser for French

This paper describes a hybrid system (FrAG) for tagging / parsing French text, and presents results from ongoing development work, corpus annotation and evaluation. The core of the system is a sentence scope Constraint Grammar (CG), with linguist-written rules. However, unlike traditional CG, the system uses hybrid techniques on both its morphological input side and its syntactic output side. T...

Search for lowest-energy structure of Zintl dianion Si(12)(2-), Ge(12)(2-), and Sn(12)(2-).

We perform an unbiased search for the lowest-energy structures of Zintl dianions (Si(12)(2-), Ge(12)(2-), and Sn(12)(2-)), by using the basin-hopping (BH) global optimization method combined with density functional theory geometric optimization. High-level ab initio calculation at the coupled-cluster level is used to determine relative stabilities and energy ranking among competitive low-lying ...
