....a set of acoustic units which can be used to index Chinese spoken documents with high efficacy. In this study, we used a variety of syllable based acoustic models for indexing Chinese audio, because such units should be able to fully index the audio and circumvent the out ofvocabulary problem [1, 2, 3]. 2 PROPERTIES OF CHINESE We work with two key dialects of the Chinese language Mandarin (or Putonghua) the official spoken language used in China; as well as Cantonese, the commonly used language in Hong Kong and Macau. Both Mandarin and Cantonese are based on the same writing system with ....

....quantities of spoken audio are becoming available on the web. Therefore, intelligent and efficient information retrieval techniques allowing easy access to spoken documents, such as the radio and television shows, are becoming highly desired and have been extensively studied in recent years [1 6]. There have been several different approaches developed for spoken document retrieval (SDR) Word based retrieval approaches [1 3] have been very popular and successful, though with the potential problems of either having to know the query words in advance, or requiring a large enough lexicon to ....
....Word based retrieval approaches [1 3] have been very popular and successful, though with the potential problems of either having to know the query words in advance, or requiring a large enough lexicon to cover the growing dynamic contents, such as the diverse broadcast news. Some other researchers [4 6] proposed the concept of subword based approaches because the subword units could provide a complete phonological coverage for spoken documents and circumvent the OOV problem in audio indexing and retrieval. In either approach, applying language models to speech recognition can definitely improve ....

Considering the monosyllabic structure of Chinese language in which each syllable can be decomposed into an INITIAL FINAL format [6], 112 right context dependent INITIALs along with 38 context independent FINALs were used as the acoustic units for SI model training. Each INITIAL is represented by an HMM with 2 or 3 states, while each FINAL is represented with 4 states. The mixture number per state ranges from 1 to 8, depending ....

The study in [Chen, Wang and Lee, 2000] also used syllable pairs with skipped syllables in between. This is because many Chinese abbreviations are derived from skipping characters, e.g. National Science Council can be abbreviated as (including only the first, third and the last characters) Moreover, synonyms often differ by one or ....
