Towards Weakly Supervised Acoustic Subword Unit Discovery and Lexicon Development Using Hidden Markov Models

Developing a phonetic lexicon for a language requires linguistic knowledge as well as human effort, which may not be available, particularly for under-resourced languages. An alternative to development of a phonetic lexicon is to automatically derive subwo ...

Acoustic data-driven grapheme-to-phoneme conversion in the probabilistic lexical modeling framework

Ramya Rasipuram, Marzieh Razavi

One of the primary steps in building automatic speech recognition (ASR) and text-to-speech systems is the development of a phonemic lexicon that provides a mapping between each word and its pronunciation as a sequence of phonemes. Phoneme lexicons can be d ...

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 ...

We report a full study of graphene synthesis by CVD on Cu surface. Two CVD methods have been developed. The first is a static one, which yields monolayer of graphene at low pressure of methane in 3 minutes at 1000 C. The second one is an equimolar method w ...

On Learning Grapheme-to-Phoneme Relationships through the Acoustic Speech Signal

Ramya Rasipuram

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems, through use of the phoneme as an intermediary unit representation, split the problem of modeling the relationship between the written form, i.e., the text and the acoustic speech signal into two disjoint processe ...

Grapheme-based Automatic Speech Recognition using Probabilistic Lexical Modeling

Ramya Rasipuram

Automatic speech recognition (ASR) systems incorporate expert knowledge of language or the linguistic expertise through the use of phone pronunciation lexicon (or dictionary) where each word is associated with a sequence of phones. The creation of phone pr ...

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 ...

Acoustic Data-driven Grapheme-to-Phoneme Conversion using KL-HMM

Ramya Rasipuram

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 ...

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 ...
