Robust Spoken Language Understanding (SLU) is a key component of spoken dialogue systems. Recent statistical approaches to this problem require additional resources (e.g. gazettee...
A limitation of most speech recognizers is that they only recognize words from a fixed vocabulary. In this paper, we explore a technique for addressing this deficiency using aut...
In this paper we present a family of algorithms for estimating stream weights for dynamic Bayesian networks with multiple observation streams. For the 2 stream case, we present a ...
This paper presents a novel approach to language modeling for voice search based on the idea and method of statistical machine translation. We propose an n-gram based translation ...
To make voice conversion usable in practical applications, the number of training sentences should be minimized. With traditional Gaussian mixture model (GMM) based techniques sma...
