Dual-Type Automatic Speech Recogniser Designs for Spoken Dialogue Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
A Dual-Type automatic speech recogniser (ASR) is a multi-pass ASR system that incorporates both a speaker-independent (SI) and a speaker-dependent (SD) ASR. The purpose of this approach is to improve the robustness of spoken dialogue systems for a broader range of applications. This paper identifies feasible Dual-Type multi-pass ASR system designs that are intended to overcome limitations arising from the use of a single type of ASR. Implementation issues are also discussed.

Memory-based Robust Interpretation of Recognised Speech
We describe a series of experiments in which memorybased machine learning techniques are used for the interpretation of spoken user input in human-machine interactions. In these experiments, the task is to determine the dialogue act of the user input and the type of information slots the user fills, on the basis of a variety of features representing the spoken input (speech measurements and wor...
متن کاملUso de información contextual en la interfaz de entrada de un sistema de diálogo
This paper proposes a new technique that aims to enhance the performance of the input interface of spoken dialogue systems by means of combining the advantages of the prompt-dependent and prompt-independent grammars used by these systems. The technique proposes creating a two-level speech recogniser since it contains two modules. The first one is a continuous-speech standard recogniser that rec...
متن کاملIntonation and dialogue context as constraints for speech recognition
This paper describes a way of using intonation and dialogue context to improve the performance of an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system. Our experiments were run on the DCIEM Maptask corpus, a corpus of spontaneous task-oriented dialogue speech. This corpus has been tagged according to a dialogue analysis scheme that assigns each utterance to one of 12 “move types”, such as “acknowledge”...
متن کاملTowards Reducing and Managing Uncertainty in Spoken Dialogue Systems
Spoken dialogue systems (sdss)—computational systems that can engage in a dialogue with a human user about a restricted topic by understanding and reacting to spoken natural language—have a valuable potential not only as commercial systems that can handle useful tasks in real situations, but also as a test bed for semantic and pragmatic theories of dialogue interaction. Besides the difficulties...
متن کاملExploring Human Error Handling Strategies: Implications for Spoken Dialogue Systems
In this study, the user experience and the consequences of different error handling strategies for spoken dialogue are examined. A modification of the Wizard of Oz method is used, where a speech recogniser is included in the setting. This makes it possible to study how humans handle speech recognition errors before a dialogue system is actually built. The results show that wizards tend not to s...
