Putting Figures on Influences on Moroccan Darija from Arabic, French and Spanish using the WordNet

Moroccan Darija is a variant of Arabic with many influences. Using the Open Multilingual WordNet (OMW), we compare the lemmas in the Moroccan Darija Wordnet (MDW) with the standard Arabic, French and Spanish ones. We then compared the lemmas in each synset ...

On Modeling the Synergy Between Acoustic and Lexical Information for Pronunciation Lexicon Development

Marzieh Razavi

State-of-the-art automatic speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech systems require a pronunciation lexicon that maps each word to a sequence of phones. Manual development of lexicons is costly as it needs linguistic knowledge and human expertise. To fa ...

Towards Producing Human-Validated Translation Resources for the Fula language through WordNet Linking

Martin Benjamin, Khalil Mrini

We propose methods to link automatically parsed linguistic data to the WordNet. We apply these methods on a trilingual dictionary in Fula, English and French. Dictionary entry parsing is used to collect the linguistic data. Then we connect it to the Open M ...

Building the Moroccan Darija WordNet (MDW) using Bilingual Resources

Khalil Mrini

Moroccan Darija is one of the Arabic dialects, a continuum of under-resourced vernaculars. We develop a Moroccan Darija Wordnet (MDW) using a bilingual Moroccan-English dictionary, from which we collect nearly 13,000 definitions and over 15,000 lemmas. A M ...

Problems and Procedures to Make Wordnet Data (Retro)Fit for a Multilingual Dictionary

Martin Benjamin

The data compiled through many Wordnet projects can be a rich source of seed information for a multilingual dictionary. However, the original Princeton WordNet was not intended as a dictionary per se, and spawning other languages from it introduces inheren ...

Kamusi Pre:D - Source-Side Disambiguation and a Sense Aligned Multilingual Lexicon

Martin Benjamin, Jeffrey Richard Allen

This paper discusses Kamusi Pre:D, a system to improve translation by disambiguating word senses in a source document with reference to a large concept-based lexicon that is aligned by sense across numerous languages. Currently under active development, th ...

Integrated Pronunciation Learning for Automatic Speech Recognition Using Probabilistic Lexical Modeling

Ramya Rasipuram, Marzieh Razavi

Standard automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems use phoneme-based pronunciation lexicon prepared by linguistic experts. When the hand crafted pronunciations fail to cover the vocabulary of a new domain, a grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) converter is used to ...

Acoustic and Lexical Resource Constrained ASR using Language-Independent Acoustic Model and Language-Dependent Probabilistic Lexical Model

Ramya Rasipuram

One of the key challenges involved in building statistical automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems is modeling the relationship between subword units or “lexical units” and acoustic feature observations. To model this relationship two types of resources ...

Acoustic and Lexical Resource Constrained ASR using Language-Independent Acoustic Model and Language-Dependent Probabilistic Lexical Model

Ramya Rasipuram

One of the key challenge involved in building a statistical automatic speech recognition (ASR) system is modeling the relationship between lexical units (that are based on subword units in the pronunciation lexicon) and acoustic feature observations. To mo ...
