Kinesthetic motor-imagery training improves performance on lexical-semantic access

Sylvain Jean-François Harquel, Camille Bonnet

The objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of Motor Imagery (MI) training on language comprehension. In line with literature suggesting an intimate relationship between the language and the motor system, we proposed that a MI-training could imp ...

Automated Essay Scoring in Foreign Language Students Based on Deep Contextualised Word Representations

Martin Jaggi, Bojana Rankovic

We introduce a method for automated grading of handwritten essays written by foreign language learners of French. The handwriting recognition system allows digitising the essays for further processing and functions at a low character error rate. The transc ...

Multilingual and Unsupervised Subword Modeling for Zero-Resource Languages

Enno Hermann

Subword modeling for zero-resource languages aims to learn low-level representations of speech audio without using transcriptions or other resources from the target language (such as text corpora or pronunciation dictionaries). A good representation should ...

SPOKEN LANGUAGE IDENTIFICATION USING LANGUAGE BOTTLENECK FEATURES

Petr Motlicek, Wissem Allouchi

In this paper, we introduce a novel approach for Language Identification (LID). Two commonly used state-of-the-art methods based on UBM/GMM I-vector technique, combined with a back-end classifier, are first evaluated. The differential factor between these ...

Cross-Platform Language Design

Sébastien Jean R Doeraene

Programming languages are increasingly compiled to multiple runtimes, each featuring their own rich structures such as their object model. Furthermore, they need to interact with other languages targeting said runtimes. A language targeting only one runtim ...

Investigating Cross-lingual Multi-level Adaptive Networks: The Importance of the Correlation of Source and Target Languages

Petr Motlicek, Philip Neil Garner

The multi-level adaptive networks (MLAN) technique is a cross-lingual adaptation framework where a bottleneck (BN) layer in a deep neural network (DNN) trained in a source lan- guage is used for producing BN features to be exploited in a second DNN in a ta ...

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 ...
