چکیده
This paper introduces research within the ALADIN project, which aims to develop an assistive vocal interface for people with a physical impairment. In contrast to existing approaches, the vocal interface is self-learning which means it can be used with any language, dialect, vocabulary and grammar. The paper describes the overall learning framework, and the two components that will provide vocabulary learning and grammar induction. In addition, the paper describes encouraging results of early implementations of these vocabulary and grammar learning components, applied to recorded sessions of a vocally guided card game, patience.

متن کاملA Self Learning Vocal Interface for Speech-impaired Users
In this work we describe research aimed at developing an assistive vocal interface for users with a speech impairment. In contrast to existing approaches, the vocal interface is self-learning, which means it is maximally adapted to the end-user and can be used with any language, dialect, vocabulary and grammar. The paper describes the overall learning framework and the vocabulary acquisition te...
متن کاملSelf-taught assistive vocal interfaces: an overview of the ALADIN project
This paper gives an overview of research within the ALADIN project, which aims to develop an assistive vocal interface for people with a physical impairment. In contrast to existing approaches, the vocal interface is trained by the end-user himself, which means it can be used with any vocabulary and grammar, and that it is maximally adapted to the — possibly dysarthric — speech of the user. Thi...
متن کاملTowards Shallow Grammar Induction for an Adaptive Assistive Vocal Interface: a Concept Tagging Approach
This paper describes research within the ALADIN project, which aims to develop an adaptive, assistive vocal interface for people with a physical impairment. One of the components in this interface is a self-learning grammar module, which maps a user’s utterance to its intended meaning. This paper describes a case study of the learnability of this task on the basis of a corpus of commands for th...
