Thai Automatic Speech Recognition
Sinaporn Suebvisai, Paisarn Charoenpornsawat, Alan W. Black, Monika Woszczyna, Tanja Schultz · 2006
We describe the development of a robust and flexible Thai speech recognizer as integrated into our English-Thai speech-to-speech translation system. We focus on the discussion of the rapid deployment of ASR for Thai under limited time and data resources, including rapid data collection issues, acoustic model bootstrap, and automatic generation of pronunciations. Issues relating to the translation and overall system will be reported elsewhere.
