Evaluation of a robust parser for spoken Japanese
نویسندگان
چکیده
We implemented a parser designed to handle ill-formedness in Japanese speech. The parser was evaluated by utilizing newly collected speech data, which was obtained from an experiment designed to produce ill-formed data effectively. Introducing the proposed method increased the number of correctly analyzed utterances from 171 to 322, from among 532 utterances in the corpus.

A robust parser for spoken language understanding
This paper describes a robust parsing algorithm for spoken language understanding. Comparing with the other work in robust parsing, we focus on building a parser that is robust to not only ill-formed spontaneous spoken language inputs but also under-specified grammars. Preliminary experiment results show that the parsing performance deteriorates more gracefully than another parser we have used ...
متن کاملRobust and efficient semantic parsing of free word order languages in spoken dialogue systems
This paper presents a semantic parser for spoken dialogue systems. The parser is designed especially for the analysis of free word order languages by providing a feature called orderindependent matching. We describe how this feature allows writing of rules for free word order languages in an elegant way (using German as example language) and how it increases the robustness against speech recogn...
متن کاملStudies on Robust Language and Dialogue Processing for Spoken Dialogue Systems
In spoken dialogue systems, robust language processing for spontaneous speech understanding and robust dialogue processing for achieving user goal are inevitable. Previously, research of speech recognition and research of natural language understanding were done independently. At first glance, it seems to be no problem to combine these two technologies, because the purpose of speech recognition...
متن کاملExamining the difficulty pathways of can-do statements from a localized version of the CEFR
The Japanese adaptation of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR-J) is a tailored version of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR), designed to better meet the needs of Japanese learners of English. The CEFR-J, like the CEFR, uses illustrative descriptors known as can-do statements, that describe achievement goals for five skills (listening, reading, spoken ...
متن کاملRobust dependency parsing of spontaneous Japanese speech and its evaluation
Spontaneously spoken Japanese includes a lot of grammatically ill-formed linguistic phenomena such as fillers, hesitations, inversions, and so on, which do not appear in written language. This paper proposes a method of robust dependency parsing using a large-scale spoken language corpus, and evaluates the availability and robustness of the method using spontaneously spoken dialogue sentences. ...
