| Abstract(in English) | Automatic speech recognition(ASR)results contain not only recognition errors, but also disfluencies and colloquial expressions that are not appropriate for inclusion in official transcripts. In order to correct these phenomena and create natural transcripts, we treat ASR results(or faithful transcripts)and official transcripts as different languages and use techniques from statistical machine translation(SMT)to "translate" between the two. In this paper, we present two novel methods in this framework. First, we introduce a technique to create context-sensitive translation models, improving the modeling accuracy. Second, we use log-linear interpolation to combine the translation model's joint and conditional probabilities, allowing for frequently observed patterns to be given higher priority. A system containing these improvements was implemented using weighted finite state transducers, and an evaluation was performed on transcripts from meetings of the Japanese Diet(national congress). |
