| Abstract(in English) | This paper proposes a new method for developing statistical N-gram language models which integrate sentence-level mixture N-grams and selective use of similar task data. In this method, component N-gram parameters are estimated using both target topic data and similar task data, then sentence-level mixture N-gram model is adapted by usng only target topic data. This approach has the advantage that it can use more data for training and remove useless clusters, which are far from target topic data. The experiment results show that this method achieves the cross-entropy reduction compared with the standard trigram. |
