CUNI at MediaEval 2013 Similar Segments in Social Speech Task
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe our experiments for the Similar Segments in Social Speech Task at MediaEval 2013 Benchmark. We mainly focus on segmentation of the recordings into shorter passages on which we apply standard retrieval techniques. We experiment with machine-learning-based segmentation employing textual (word n-grams, tag n-grams, letter cases, lexical cohesion, etc.) and prosodic features (silence) and compare the results with those obtained by regular segmentation.

CUNI at MediaEval 2013 Search and Hyperlinking Task
We describe our approach to the Search Subtask of the Search and Hyperlinking Task at MediaEval 2013. We experiment with various methods for segmentation of the recordings into shorter segments which are then used in a standard retrieval setup to search for relevant passages. We use regular segmentation into equilong segments and experiment with machine-learning based segmentation expanding our...

This paper describes the participation of the University of Washington Computational Linguistics Laboratory (UWCL) in the Similar Segments in Social Speech task at MediaEval 2013. Participants in this task develop systems that, given a span of speech from a recorded conversation, aim to identify all and only highly similar regions in other recordings. As this was a new task for this year, the g...
متن کاملEvaluating Prosody-Based Similarity Models for Information Retrieval
Prosody is important in spoken language, and especially in dialog, but its utility for search in dialog archives has remained an open question. Using prosody-based measures of similarity, which also roughly correlate with dialog-activity similarity and topic similarity, we built support for “retrieve more like this” searches. Performance on the Similar Segments in Social Speech Task at MediaEva...
