Improving Grapheme-based ASR by Probabilistic Lexical Modeling Approach

Ramya Rasipuram

There is growing interest in using graphemes as subword units, especially in the context of the rapid development of hidden Markov model (HMM) based automatic speech recognition (ASR) system, as it eliminates the need to build a phoneme pronunciation lexic ...

This paper proposes a novel grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) conversion approach where first the probabilistic relation between graphemes and phonemes is captured from acoustic data using Kullback-Leibler divergence based hidden Markov model (KL-HMM) system. Then ...

Combining Acoustic Data Driven G2P and Letter-to-Sound Rules for Under Resource Lexicon Generation

Ramya Rasipuram

In a recent work, we proposed an acoustic data-driven grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) conversion approach, where the probabilistic relationship between graphemes and phonemes learned through acoustic data is used along with the orthographic transcription of word ...

Grapheme-based Automatic Speech Recognition using KL-HMM

Hervé Bourlard, Ramya Rasipuram, Guillermo Aradilla

The state-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems typically use phonemes as subword units. In this work, we present a novel grapheme-based ASR system that jointly models phoneme and grapheme information using Kullback-Leibler divergence-based ...

On Joint Modelling of Grapheme and Phoneme Information using KL-HMM for ASR

Hervé Bourlard, Guillermo Aradilla

In this paper, we propose a simple approach to jointly model both grapheme and phoneme information using Kullback-Leibler divergence based HMM (KL-HMM) system. More specifically, graphemes are used as subword units and phoneme posterior probabilities estim ...

A Kernel Wrapper for Phoneme Sequence Recognition

We describe a kernel wrapper, a Mercer kernel for the task of phoneme sequence recognition which is based on operations with the Gaussian kernel, and suitable for any sequence kernel classifier. We start by presenting a kernel-based algorithm for phoneme s ...

John Wiley and Sons2009

The use of local phoneme posterior probabilities has been increasingly explored for improving speech recognition systems. Hybrid hidden Markov model / artificial neural network (HMM/ANN) and Tandem are the most successful examples of such systems. In this ...

We investigate the detection of spoken terms in conversational speech using phoneme recognition with the objective of achieving smaller index size as well as faster search speed. Speech is processed and indexed as a sequence of one best phoneme sequence. W ...
