Speech understanding
Page 8
Abstract
Research on speech understanding is adding new dimensions to the analysis of speech and to the understanding of language. The accoustic, phonetic, and phonological processing of speech recognition efforts are being blended with the syntax, semantics, and pragmatics of question-answering systems. The goal is the development of capabilities that will allow a person to have a conversation with a computer in the performance of a shared task. Achievement of this goal will both require and contribute to a more comprehensive and powerful model of language---with significant consequences for linguistics, for computer science, and especially for computational linguistics.
Recommendations
Toward Robust Speech Recognition and Understanding
The principal cause of speech recognition errors is a mismatch between trained acoustic/language models and input speech due to the limited amount of training data in comparison with the vast variation of speech. It is crucial to establish methods that ...
