Learning visually grounded words and syntax for a scene description task
A spoken language generation system has been developed that learns to describe objects in computer-generated visual scenes. The system is trained by a `show-and-tell' procedu...

Weighted finite-state transducers in speech recognition
We survey the use of weighted finite-state transducers (WFSTs) in speech recognition. We show that WFSTs provide a common and natural representation for HMM models, context-depend...

Stochastic natural language generation for spoken dialog systems
We describe a corpus-based approach to natural language generation (NLG). The approach has been implemented as a component of a spoken dialog system and a series of evaluations we...
