The Chinese Pinyin System Scheme?An Effective Tool for International Chinese Language Teaching

Neural Network Language Model for Chinese Pinyin Input Method Engine

Neural network language models (NNLMs) have been shown to outperform traditional ngram language model. However, too high computational cost of NNLMs becomes the main obstacle of directly integrating it into pinyin IME that normally requires a real-time response. In this paper, an efficient solution is proposed by converting NNLMs into back-off n-gram language models, and we integrate the conver...

Chinese Pinyin Input Method for Mobile Phone

Chinese input method is one of the most difficult problems in Chinese Language Processing. And to input Chinese word in mobile phone effectively is an even bigger challenge. In this paper, we propose a new Chinese pinyin input method in mobile phone. This method uses a compact statistical bigram based language model. Also, to meet the special requirements of Chinese pinyin input in mobile phone...

Task-based Language Teaching in L2 English Writing Classrooms: Insights from Chinese Senior Secondary Schools

There is little research on the task-based teaching approach in senior secondary L2 English writing classrooms. This study carried out an exploratory sequential mixed methods study to explore the suitability and adaptations of task-based language teaching in the domain of secondary schools in small cities. First, the researcher surveyed six EFL senior secondary teachers of different teaching ex...

Linear Reranking Model for Chinese Pinyin-to-Character Conversion

Pinyin-to-character conversion is an important task for Chinese natural language processing tasks. Previous work mainly focused on n-gram language models and machine learning approaches, or with additional hand-crafted or automatic rule-based post-processing. There are two problems unable to solve for word n-gram language model: out-of-vocabulary word recognition and long-distance grammatical c...
