IBM’s 10x Real-time Broadcast News Transcription System Used in the 1999 Hub4 Evaluation
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe the system used by IBM in the 1999 HUB4 Evaluation under the 10 times real-time constraint. We detail the system architecture and show that the performance of this system is over 20 percent more accurate at the same speed than the system used in the 1998 Evaluation. Furthermore, we have closed the gap between our unlimited resource system and our 10 times real time system from 45 percent to 14 percent.

Transcription of broadcast news with a time constraint: IBM's 10xRT HUB4 system
We describe a system which automatically transcribes broadcast news in less than 10 times real-time. We detail the system architecture of this system, which was used by IBM in the 1999 HUB4 10xRT evaluation, and show that the performance of this system is over 20 percent more accurate at the same speed than the system we used in the 1998 evaluation. Furthermore, we have closed the gap in word r...
متن کاملTranscription of broadcast news-some recent improvements to IBM's LVCSR system
This paper describes extensions and improvements to IBM’s large vocabulary continuous speech recognition (LVCSR) system for transcription of broadcast news. The recognizer uses an additional 35 hours of training data over the one used in the 1996 Hub4 evaluation [?]. It includes a number of new features: optimal feature space for acoustic modeling (in training and/or testing), filler-word model...
متن کاملDragon Systems’ 1997 Broadcast News Transcription System
This system represents Dragon’s first participation in the HUB4 evaluations since the 1995 Marketplace dry run. At that time, we used a fairly complicated system which had three sets of acoustic models: one for clean wide-bandwidth data, one for low-bandwidth data, and one for speech with music in the background. Our system produced small pieces that were labelled by channel type and then decod...

متن کاملThe philips/RWTH system for transcription of broadcast news
This paper contains a description of the Philips/RWTH 1998 HUB4 system which has been build in a joint e ort of Philips Research Laboratories Aachen and Aachen University of Technology. We will focus our discussion on recent improvements compared to the original 1997 HUB4 system and evaluate them on the HUB4'97 evaluation data. The paper will deal with 1. a rough system overview including featu...
