Phonemic Segmentation and Labelling using the MAUS Technique
Florian Schiel, Christoph Draxler, Jonathan M. Harrington · Open access LMU (Ludwid Maxmilian's Universitat Munchen) · 2011
We describe the pronunciation model of the automatic segmentation technique MAUS based on a data-driven Markov process and a new evaluation measure for phonemic transcripts relative symmetric accuracy; results are given for the MAUS segmentation and labelling on German dialog speech. MAUS is currently distributed as a freeware package by the Bavarian Archive for Speech Signals and will also be implemented as a web-service in the near future.
