Automatic model construction for a user oriented task using speech utterances

چکیده
We propose a method to self-organize a user model for realizing a text search system. The method self-organizes a model from phoneme sequences and their texts using 6 basic rules. An inference method associated with the self-organized model searches texts corresponding to inputted phoneme sequences. Experiments using 50 voice waveforms of 10 speakers show that the self-organized model is useful to realize a text search system and is robust for noisy speech utterances.

Efficient Language Model Construction for Spoken Dialog Systems by Inducting Language Resources of Different Languages
Since the quality of the language model directly affects the performance of the spoken dialog system (SDS), we should use a statistical language model (LM) trained with a large amount of data that is matched to the task domain. When porting an SDS to another language, however, it is costly to re-collect a large amount of user utterances in the target language. We thus use the language resources...
متن کاملAutomatic Feature Selection for Predicting Content of User Utterances in Dialogs
In task-oriented spoken dialog systems (SDS), the system often requests explicit confirmation of userprovided task-relevant concepts. The user utterance following a confirmation question (the postconfirmation utterance) is important to successful dialog outcomes. It may be a simple confirmation or rejection (e.g. yes, no, right, correct), or a correction or a topic change containing new concept...
متن کاملTranscription Cost Reduction for Constructing Acoustic Models Using Acoustic Likelihood Selection Criteria
This paper describes a novel method for reducing the transcription effort in the construction of task-adapted acoustic models for a practical automatic speech recognition (ASR) system. We have to prepare actual data samples collected in the practical system and transcribe them for training the task-adapted acoustic models. However, transcribing utterances is a time-consuming and laborious proce...
متن کاملIncremental dialog processing in a task-oriented dialog
Incremental Dialog Processing (IDP) enables Spoken Dialog Systems to gradually process minimal units of user speech in order to give the user an early system response. In this paper, we present an application of IDP that shows its effectiveness in a task-oriented dialog system. We have implemented an IDP strategy and deployed it for one month on a real-user system. We compared the resulting dia...
متن کاملModelsaz: An Object-Oriented Computer-Aided Modeling Environment
Modeling and simulation of processing plants are widely used in industry. Construction of a mathematical model for a plant is a time-consuming and error-prone task. In light of extensive advancements in computer science (both hardware and software), computers are becoming a necessary instrument in industrial activities. Many software tools for modeling, simulation and optimization of proces...
