Embodiment Construction

[0016] Various details involved in the technical solution of the present invention will be described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0017] Preprocessing of spoken corpus

[0018] The acquired oral corpus cannot be directly used for training, but must undergo some preprocessing. Sentence boundary segmentation is to find the end point of the sentence in the continuous text, that is, to predict the occurrence position of those sentence-end punctuation, so as long as it is the end-sentence punctuation, there is no difference for segmentation. The main task of preprocessing is to replace the end-of-sentence punctuation in the corpus with a unified symbol. For the convenience of description, the replacement symbol in this article is represented by "SB"; for other punctuation other than the end-of-sentence punctuation, it must be deleted, because the phonetic It is impossible for the recognized text to contain such punctuation marks. For Chinese, t...

Abstract

A kind of sentence dividing method based on bi-directional N-gram model and Maximum Entrpy model. This method comprises training and dividing. The training process comprises: obtaining the spoken language material library, preprocessing the spoken language material library, for example replacement; counting the n term co-appear frequency of n-gram model; estimating the n term positive dependence probability and n term negative dependence probability; obtaining the n term positive and negative dependence probability database; setting the eigenfunction of Maximum Entropy model; circulating account the eigenfunction parameter, obtaining eigenfunction parameter database. This method is a kind of purely statistical method. The operation only needs a background spoken language material library that doesn't need further dividing or labeling.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to speech recognition, in particular to a boundary recognition method for spoken sentences. Background technique [0002] With the rapid development of computer hardware conditions and the continuous improvement of speech recognition technology, language understanding and generation systems using speech as the interface (hereinafter referred to as speech-language combined systems) such as man-machine interface, man-machine dialogue system, simultaneous translation system, etc. Started to be practical. These systems have broad application prospects. For example, the man-machine voice interface, its perfection will make people no longer worry about learning cumbersome computer operations, because you only need to "speak" to the computer to listen to anything, and it will execute according to your requirements. Another example is simultaneous translation technology, which will eliminate communication barriers between users of diffe...
