Speech data collection in an under-resourced language within a multilingual context
(International Research Institute MICA, 2014)
In this paper, we present an end-to-end solution to the development of an automatic speech recognition (ASR) system in
typical under-resourced languages, where the target language is likely to be influenced by one more ...
A smartphone-based ASR data collection tool for under-resourced languages
(Elsevier, 2014)
Acoustic data collection for automatic speech recognition (ASR) purposes is a particularly challenging task when working with under-resourced languages, many of which are found in the developing world. We provide a brief ...
Phone recognition for spoken web search
(MediaEval Workshop, Pisa, Italy, 2011)
Aiming at both speaker independence and robustness with
respect to recognition errors in the spoken queries, we have
implemented a two-pass system for spoken web search. In
the first pass, unconstrained phone recognition ...
Medium-vocabulary speech recognition for under-resourced languages
(SLTU, 2012)
We report on the development of speech-recognition systems that are able to perform accurate recognition on mediumvocabulary tasks (i.e. tasks that require distinctions between approximately 200 different terms). We are ...
Efficient harvesting of Internet audio for resource-scarce ASR
(Interspeech 2011, 2011)
Spoken recordings that have been transcribed for human reading
(e.g. as captions for audiovisual material, or to provide alternative
modes of access to recordings) are widely available in many
languages. Such recordings ...
Automatic speech recognition for under-resourced languages: A survey
(Elsevier, 2014)
Speech processing for under-resourced languages is an active field of research, which has experienced significant progress during the
past decade. We propose, in this paper, a survey that focuses on automatic speech ...
Woefzela - an open-source platform for ASR data collection in the developing world
(Interspeech 2011, 2011)
Building transcribed speech corpora for under-resourced
languages plays a pivotal role in developing speech technologies
for such languages. We have developed an open-source
tool for devices running the Android operating ...
