High-quality Speech Translation for Language Learning
In this paper, we describe a translation framework aimed at achieving high-quality speech translation within restricted conversational domains. Towards this goal, we developed an interlingua-based approach, in which a generation-based method is augmented with an examplebased method to improve system robustness, even with imperfect inputs due to speech recognition errors. The framework is integr...
متن کاملFrom Speech is Special to Computer Aided Language Learning
After describing the belief that speech is special, empirical and theoretical research is reviewed undermining the tenets of this belief. A new framework is presented as a theoretical framework for language learning. Central to this framework is the natural ease of multimodal perception, particularly the value of visible speech. The value of synthetic talking heads is described along with their...
متن کاملLanguage identification for speech-to-speech translation
This paper investigates the use of language identification (LID) in real-time speech-to-speech translation systems. We propose a framework that incorporates LID capability into a speech-to-speech translation system while minimizing the impact on the system’s real-time performance. We compared two phone-based LID approaches, namely PRLM and PPRLM, to a proposed extended approach based on Conditi...
متن کاملTools and Technologies for Computer-Aided Speech and Language Therapy
This paper addresses the problem of Computer-Aided Speech and Language Therapy (CASLT). The goal of the work described in the paper is to develop and evaluate a semi-automated system for providing interactive speech therapy to the increasing population of impaired individuals and help professional speech therapists. A discussion on the development and evaluation of a set of interactive therapy ...
متن کاملStatistical Natural Language Generation for Speech-to-Speech Machine Translation
This paper presents a statistical natural language generation scheme for trainable speech-to-speech machine translation (MT) systems for limited domain applications using a cascaded approach. The natural language generation scheme in the translation systems is based on a maximum entropy (ME) statistical model fully trained from a corpus, allowing flexible translation outputs. In this paper, the...
