This paper is concerned with language modeling (LM) for large vocabulary speech recognition in Mandarin Chinese. As the language characteristics of Chinese are quite unique, we investigate some novel techniques in language modeling. We also borrow some of techniques that have been applied to other languages. Experiments have been conducted on the Call Home Mandarin, HUB4, and HUB5 corpora obtai...

TOPSIS, known as the “Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution” (TOPSIS), is one well-known methods solving “multi-criteria decision-making” (MCDM) problems. Many TOPSIS have been developed solve real-life problems using neutrosophic sets. However, no study has method under interval bipolar linguistic environments. Therefore, this aims present a new concept “interval se...

This paper described recent activities of the Linguistic Data Consortium in the collection, annotation and distribution of language data the developments of tools and standards for using that data, the creation of metadata to facilitate the search for linguistic resources.

Although it prefigures many advances in linguistic theory, the scholarship of nineteenth century scholar Mikołaj Kruszewski is today largely forgotten. In these papers I hope to rectify this situation somewhat by introducing Kruszewski’s insights to modern discourse on phonology. In addition to a detailed summary of Kruszewski’s major work, An Outline of Linguistic Science (Očerk Nauki O Jazyke...

To solve group decision-making problems we have to take in account different aspects. On the one hand, depending on the problem, we can deal with different types of information. In this way, most group decision-making problems based on linguistic approaches use symmetrically and uniformly distributed linguistic term sets to express experts’ opinions. However, there exist problems whose assessme...
