The features include: (1) a flexible way to derive an information rich phoneme set based on mutual information between a text corpus and its phoneme set; (2) a hidden Markov network acoustic model and a successive state splitting algorithm to generate its model topology based on a minimum description length criterion; and (3) advanced language modeling using multi-class composite N-grams. These features allow a recognition performance of 90% character accuracy in tourism related dialogue with a real time response speed.展开更多
