JANUS-II-translation of spontaneous conversational speech
نویسندگان
چکیده
JANUS-II is a research system to design and test components of speech-to-speech translation systems as well as a research prototype for such a system. We will focus on two aspects of the system: 1) new features of the speech recognition component JANUS-SR, 2) the end-to-end performance of JANUS-II, including a comparison of two machine translation strategies used for JANUS-MT (PHOENIX and GLR*).

Interactive Translation of Conversational Speech
We present JANUS-II, a large scale system effort aimed at interactive spoken language translation. JANUS-II now accepts spontaneous conversational speech in a limited domain in English, German or Spanish and produces output in German, English, Spanish, Japanese and Korean. The challenges of coarticulated, disfluent, ill-formed speech are manifold, and have required advances in acoustic modeling...

In this paper we investigate the possibility of translating continuous spoken conversations in a cross-talk environment. This is a task known to be difficult for human translators due to several factors. It is characterized by rapid and even overlapping turn-taking, a high degree of co-articulation, and fragmentary language. We describe experiments using both push-to-talk as well as cross-talk ...
