One commonly used approach for language recognition is to convert the input speech into a sequence of tokens such as words or phones and then to use these token sequences to deter...
Ultrasound has become a useful tool for speech scientists studying mechanisms of language sound production. State-of-the-art methods for extracting tongue contours from ultrasound...
Representing documents by vectors that are independent of language enhances machine translation and multilingual text categorization. We use discriminative training to create a pr...
Traditionally, statistical machine translation systems have relied on parallel bi-lingual data to train a translation model. While bi-lingual parallel data are expensive to genera...
