We have been developing a spoken language system to recognize and understand spontaneous speech. It is difficult for such systems to achieve good coverage of the lexicon and gramm...
We present an integrated approach to speech and natural language processing which uses a single parser to create training for a statistical speech recognition component and for in...
To achieve reasonable accuracy in large vocabulary speech recognition systems, it is important to use detailed acoustic models together with good long span language models. For ex...

We attemped to improve recognition accuracy by reducing the inadequacies of the lexicon and language model. Specifically we address the following three problems: (1) the best size...

Most recent research in trainable part of speech taggers has explored stochastic tagging. While these taggers obtain high accuracy, linguistic information is captured indirectly, ...
