چکیده

It has been suggested that some forms of speech dis uencies, most notable interjections and parentheticals, tend to occur disproportionally at major clause boundaries [6] and thus might serve to aid parsers in establishing these boundaries. We have tested a current statistical parser [1] on Switchboard text with and without interjections and parentheticals and found that the parser performed better when not faced with these extra phenomena. This suggest that for current parsers, at least, interjection and parenthetical placement does not help in the parsing process.

The Effects of Disfluency Detection in Parsing Spoken Language

Spoken language contains disfluencies that, because of their irregular nature, may lead to reduced performance of data-driven parsers. This paper describes an experiment that quantifies the effects of disfluency detection and disfluency removal on data-driven parsing of spoken language data. The experiment consists of creating two reduced versions from a spoken language treebank, the Switchboar...

Joint Incremental Disfluency Detection and Dependency Parsing

We present an incremental dependency parsing model that jointly performs disfluency detection. The model handles speech repairs using a novel non-monotonic transition system, and includes several novel classes of features. For comparison, we evaluated two pipeline systems, using state-of-the-art disfluency detectors. The joint model performed better on both tasks, with a parse accuracy of 90.5%...

Joint Transition-based Dependency Parsing and Disfluency Detection for Automatic Speech Recognition Texts

Joint dependency parsing with disfluency detection is an important task in speech language processing. Recent methods show high performance for this task, although most authors make the unrealistic assumption that input texts are transcribed by human annotators. In real-world applications, the input text is typically the output of an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system, which implies that...

Non-Monotonic Parsing of Fluent Umm I mean Disfluent Sentences

Parsing disfluent sentences is a challenging task which involves detecting disfluencies as well as identifying the syntactic structure of the sentence. While there have been several studies recently into solely detecting disfluencies at a high performance level, there has been relatively little work into joint parsing and disfluency detection that has reached that state-ofthe-art performance in...
