A Conversational Movie Search System Based on Conditional Random Fields
نویسندگان
چکیده
Online streaming companies such as Netflix have become dominant in the media distribution sector. However, such media delivery services often support very rudimentary search, especially for natural language queries. To provide a more natural search interface, we have developed a conversational movie search system, which parses the recognition hypothesis of a spoken query into semantic classes using conditional random fields (CRFs), and then searches an indexed database with the identified semantics. Topic modeling on user-generated content (e.g., movie reviews) is employed for query expansion. Thirteen searching schemas are supported (such as genre, plot, character and soundtrack search). A crowd-sourcing platform was utilized to automatically collect large-scale annotated data for incremental CRF training.

Better Punctuation Prediction with Dynamic Conditional Random Fields
This paper focuses on the task of inserting punctuation symbols into transcribed conversational speech texts, without relying on prosodic cues. We investigate limitations associated with previous methods, and propose a novel approach based on dynamic conditional random fields. Different from previous work, our proposed approach is designed to jointly perform both sentence boundary and sentence ...
متن کاملConditional Random Fields for Airborne Lidar Point Cloud Classification in Urban Area
Over the past decades, urban growth has been known as a worldwide phenomenon that includes widening process and expanding pattern. While the cities are changing rapidly, their quantitative analysis as well as decision making in urban planning can benefit from two-dimensional (2D) and three-dimensional (3D) digital models. The recent developments in imaging and non-imaging sensor technologies, s...
متن کاملOpinion Dynamics Modeling for Movie Review Transcripts Classification with Hidden Conditional Random Fields
In this paper, the main goal is to detect a movie reviewer’s opinion using hidden conditional random fields. This model allows us to capture the dynamics of the reviewer’s opinion in the transcripts of long unsegmented audio reviews that are analyzed by our system. High level linguistic features are computed at the level of inter-pausal segments. The features include syntactic features, a stati...
متن کاملConditional Sequence Model for Context-Based Recognition of Gaze Aversion
Eye gaze and gesture form key conversational grounding cues that are used extensively in face-to-face interaction among people. To accurately recognize visual feedback during interaction, people often use contextual knowledge from previous and current events to anticipate when feedback is most likely to occur. In this paper, we investigate how dialog context from an embodied conversational agen...
متن کاملPrediction of speech recognition accuracy for utterance classification
The paper deals with the problem of predicting speech recognition quality and filtering poorly recognized utterances in the case when no reference transcripts are available. In the proposed system, word error rate (WER) predictions for individual utterances are made using conditional random fields (CRF), and classification based on a given threshold is performed afterwards. We propose using a b...
