Processing and transcribing spontaneous speech
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper deals with spontaneous speech, considering first its specificities, and then its transcription – both diachronically and synchronically. The paper continues by listing the main problems spontaneous speech causes to automatic speech recognition systems, which were identified through several experiments. It ends by suggesting some optimizations to help solve these problems. MOTS-CLÉS : parole spontanée, transcription manuelle, transcription automatique, spécificités de l’oral, système de reconnaissance automatique de la parole.

متن کاملAdapting the acoustic model of a speech recognizer for varied proficiency non-native spontaneous speech using read speech with language-specific pronunciation difficulty
This paper presents a novel approach to acoustic model adaptation of a recognizer for non-native spontaneous speech in the context of recognizing candidates’ responses in a test of spoken English. Instead of collecting and then transcribing spontaneous speech data, a read speech corpus is created where non-native speakers of English read English sentences of different degrees of pronunciation d...
متن کاملEvaluation of an Objective Technique for Analysing Temporal Variables in Dat Spontaneous Speech
and Care of the Elderly. 2 Abstract This paper describes a technique for quantifying the degree of speech deficits in probable dementia of Alzheimer's type (DAT). The technique involves interviewing individuals with DAT and transcribing their speech. From these transcripts five measurements which reflect the physical characteristics of this speech can be calculated, each measure being dependent...
متن کاملDiscriminative rescoring based on minimization of word errors for transcribing broadcast news
This paper describes a novel method of rescoring that reflects tendencies of errors in word hypotheses in speech recognition for transcribing broadcast news, including ill-trained spontaneous speech. The proposed rescoring assigns penalties to sentence hypotheses according to the recognition error tendencies in the training lattices themselves using a set of weighting factors for feature functi...
