Annotating the Semantic Consistency of Speech Recognition Hypotheses
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent work on natural language processing systems is aimed at more conversational, context-adaptive systems in multiple domains. An important requirement for such a system is the automatic detection of the domain and a domain consistency check of the given speech recognition hypotheses. We report a pilot study addressing these tasks, the underlying data collection and investigate the feasibility of annotating the data reliably by human annotators.

Psychometric Properties of the Persian Word Pairs Task for Declarative Memory Assessment
Objective: According to the declarative/procedural model, the semantic aspect of language depends on the brain structures responsible for declarative memory. The word pairs task is a common tool for evaluating declarative memory. The current study aimed to design a valid and reliable task for evaluating declarative memory in Persian children at learning and retention stages and to investigate i...
متن کاملThe Role of Semantic Processing in an Automatic Speech Understanding System
We present the semantics component of a speech understanding and dialogue system that is developed at our institute. Due to pronunciation variabilities and vagueness of the word recognition process, semantics in a speech understanding system has to resolve additional problems. Its main task is not only to build up a representation structure for the meaning of an utterance, as in a system for wr...
متن کاملConfidence Measure Based on Context Consistency Using Word Occurrence Probability and Topic Adaptation for Spoken Term Detection
In this paper, we propose a novel confidence measure to improve the performance of spoken term detection (STD). The proposed confidence measure is based on the context consistency between a hypothesized word and its context in a word lattice. The main contribution of this paper is to compute the context consistency by considering the uncertainty in the results of speech recognition and the effe...
متن کاملRecognizing the Emotional State Changes in Human Utterance by a Learning Statistical Method based on Gaussian Mixture Model
Speech is one of the most opulent and instant methods to express emotional characteristics of human beings, which conveys the cognitive and semantic concepts among humans. In this study, a statistical-based method for emotional recognition of speech signals is proposed, and a learning approach is introduced, which is based on the statistical model to classify internal feelings of the utterance....
متن کاملLarge-scale lexical semantics for speech recognition support
This paper presents a study on the use of wide-coverage semantic knowledge for large vocabulary (theoretically unrestricted) domain-independent speech recognition. A machine readable dictionary was used to provide the semantic information about the words and a semantic model was developed based on the conceptual association between words as computed directly from the textual representations of ...
