Academic Press, Apr 21, 2006 - 508 pages
Tanja Schultz and Katrin Kirchhoff have compiled a comprehensive overview of speech processing from a multilingual perspective. By taking this all-inclusive approach to speech processing, the editors have included theories, algorithms, and techniques that are required to support spoken input and output in a large variety of languages. This book presents a comprehensive introduction to research problems and solutions, both from a theoretical as well as a practical perspective, and highlights technology that incorporates the increasing necessity for multilingual applications in our global community. Current challenges of speech processing and the feasibility of sharing data and system components across different languages guide contributors in their discussions of trends, prognoses and open research issues. This includes automatic speech recognition and speech synthesis, but also speech-to-speech translation, dialog systems, automatic language identification, and handling non-native speech. The book is complemented by an overview of multilingual resources, important research trends, and actual speech processing systems that are being deployed in multilingual human-human and human-machine interfaces. Researchers and developers in industry and academia with different backgrounds but a common interest in multilingual speech processing will find an excellent overview of research problems and solutions detailed from theoretical and practical perspectives.

Page 157 - For each word the baseform transcription is used to generate a pronunciation graph to which word-internal phonological rules are optionally applied during training and recognition to account for some of the phonological variations observed in fluent speech. Some example alternate pronunciations are given in Figure 1 using the phone Symbol set given in Table 1 . The pronunciation for "COUNTING" allow the /t/ to be optional, as a result of a word-internal phonological rule.
