| Abstract(in English) | Speech understanding can be viewed as a translation problem from natural language into semantic language. This paper describes automatic acquisition of a language model by using a text corpus, which translates natural language into semantic language for speech understanding. A stochastic method for language modeling is proposed for machine translation using a parallel text corpus. This method can be used in speech understanding, but input and output languages should be modeled concisely in order to estimate a reliable translation language model. This paper proposes a method for reducing the number of grammar rules while maintaining the original coverage. This method was shown to be effective by experiments using the ARPA ATIS task. |
