Em Training of Finite-sta and Its Application to Pronu
نویسنده
چکیده
Recently, finite-state transducers (FSTs) have been shown to be useful for a number of applications in speech and language processing. FST operations such as composition, determinization, and minimization make manipulating FSTs very simple. In this paper, we present a method to learn weights for arbitrary FSTs using the EM algorithm. We show that this FST EM algorithm is able to learn pronunciation weights that improve the word error rate for a spontaneous speech recognition task.

متن کاملFinite-Range Electromagnetic Interaction and Magnetic Charges: Spacetime Algebra or Algebra of Physical Space?
A finite-range electromagnetic (EM) theory containing both electric and magnetic charges constructed using two vector potentials Aμ and Zμ is formulated in the spacetime algebra (STA) and in the algebra of the three-dimensional physical space (APS) formalisms. Lorentz, local gauge and EM duality invariances are discussed in detail in the APS formalism. Moreover, considerations about signature a...
متن کاملEvaluation of Ultimate Torsional Strength of Reinforcement Concrete Beams Using Finite Element Analysis and Artificial Neural Network
Due to lack of theory of elasticity, estimation of ultimate torsional strength of reinforcement concrete beams is a difficult task. Therefore, the finite element methods could be applied for determination of strength of concrete beams. Furthermore, for complicated, highly nonlinear and ambiguous status, artificial neural networks are appropriate tools for prediction of behavior of such states. ...
متن کاملEffects of Ultrasound Working Parameters on the Ultrasonic Power Density Some Neglected Problems in the Application of Ultrasound Bath
Ultrasound has been widely employed in food industry, while some of its working parameters are usually neglected to be described in its application, which caused the difficulty of reproducing and comparing the results obtained by different groups. So it is definitely not sufficient to simply state the ultrasound conditions such as ultrasound power, frequency and t...
متن کاملMulti-view EM Algorithm for Finite Mixture Models
In this paper, Multi-View Expectation and Maximization algorithm for finite mixture models is proposed by us to handle realworld learning problems which have natural feature splits. Multi-View EM does feature split as Co-training and Co-EM, but it considers multiview learning problems in the EM framework. The proposed algorithm has these impressing advantages comparing with other algorithms in ...
