On deriving rules for nativised pronunciation in navigation queries
Isabel M. Trancoso, Céu Viana, Isabel Mascarenhas, Carlos Teixeira · 1999
Navigation queries are typical examples of contexts in which a recognizer may have to deal with non-native names. In order to build a pronunciation lexicon with these names, special GtoP rules may be derived. The paper addresses this problem in the context of navigation queries in French including German names and viceversa. The special GtoP rules were mostly based on statistics derived from cross-lingual spoken corpora.
