- W1603751719 abstract "Over the past 40 years, significant progress has been made in the fields of speech recognition and speech understanding. Current state-of-the-art speech recognition systems are capable of achieving word-level accuracies of 90% to 95% on continuous speech recognition tasks using 5000 words. Even larger systems, capable of recognizing 20,000 words are just now being developed. Speech understanding systems have recently been developed that perform fairly well within a restricted domain.While the size and performance of modern speech recognition and understanding systems are impressive, it is evident to anyone who has used these systems that the technology is primitive compared to our own human ability to understand speech. Some of the difficulties hampering progress in the fields of speech recognition and understanding stem from the many sources of variation that occur during human communication.One of the sources of variation that occurs in human communication is the different ways that words can be pronounced. There are many causes of pronunciation variation, such as: the phonetic environment in which the word occurs, the dialect of the speaker, the speaker's age, the speaker's gender, and the speaking rate. Some researchers have shown improvements in speech recognition performance on a read-speech task through the use of explicit pronunciation modeling, while others have not shown any significant improvements.This thesis presents an algorithm for the construction of models that attempt to capture the variation that occurs in the pronunciations of words in spontaneous (i.e., non-read) speech. A technique for developing alternate pronunciations of words and then estimating the probabilities of the alternate pronunciations is presented. Additionally, we describe the development and implementation of a spoken-language understanding system called the Berkeley Restaurant Project (BeRP). Multiple pronunciation word models constructed using the algorithm proposed in this thesis are evaluated within the context of the BeRP system. The results of this evaluation show that the explicit modeling of variation in the pronunciation of words improves the performance of both the speech recognition and the speech understanding components of the BeRP system." @default.
