The project Technology and Corpora for Speech to Speech Translation (TC-STAR) aims at making a break-through in speech-to-speech translation research, significantly reducing the gap between the performance of machines and humans at this task. Technological and scientific progress is driven by periodic, competitive evaluations within the project. For automatic speech recognition the Interactive Systems Laboratories participated in the English European Parliamentary Sessions (EPPS) and Mandarin Chinese Broadcast News task within these evaluations. In this paper we present our evaluation systems with which we participated in the TC-STAR Spring 2006 evaluation for the two tasks mentioned.
