PROJ2: Building an ASR System Julia Hirschberg CS 4706 1/16/2019

Goal Design and build your own speech understanding system for your domain Your system will Take an input utterance Transcribe it automatically Convert the transcription into a semantic representation corresponding to the domain concepts (degrees of freedom) in your domain Your system will consist of two components: an ASR system and an Understanding system

ASR System You will be given a skeleton script that call an ASR system built using the HTK (an HMM toolkit) Acoustic models are already trained on TIMIT, BDC, and the Columbia Games corpora System input will be a wav file (audio format: mono, sample rate: 16Khz) System output will be the automatic transcript in mlf file format, e.g. #!MLF!# "*/test2.rec" 5100000 5400000 I -250.811493 5400000 6300000 NEED -767.471863 6300000 7100000 TO -789.156311 7100000 9100000 GO -1631.608887 9100000 10000000 TO -913.183228

Grammar To build your system you need to create a grammar that handles your domain Constrains the recognition output to conform to queries in your domain $city = BOSTON | NEWYORK | WASHINGTON | BALTIMORE; $time = MORNING | EVENING; $day = FRIDAY | MONDAY; (SENT-START (((WHAT TRAINS LEAVE) | (WHAT TIME CAN I TRAVEL) | (IS THERE A TRAIN)) (FROM|TO) $city (FROM | TO) $city ON $day [$time]) SENT-END)

Multiple Acoustic Models ASR system has been trained with different numbers of Gaussians per HMM state Experiment with these different HMMs to decide which works best in your domain. Detailed instructions on how to build and run the system in PROJ2 description

Generating Concept Tables You must write a script to transform the ASR output into a semantic representation, e.g. translate #!MLF!# "*/test2.rec" 5100000 5400000 I -250.811493 5400000 6300000 NEED -767.471863 6300000 7100000 TO -789.156311 7100000 9100000 GO -1631.608887 9100000 10000000 TO -913.183228 10000000 12400000 BALTIMORE -1923.127319 13300000 14000000 FROM -679.068176 14000000 14600000 WASHINGTON -560.649719 15900000 16500000 ON -547.398132 16500000 18500000 MONDAY -1689.119995 18500000 20200000 EVENING -1382.312256

You’ll be graded on concept accuracy and grammar coverage Into this Departure city: Baltimore Destination: Washington Day: Monday Time: Evening You’ll be graded on concept accuracy and grammar coverage More information on the HTK toolkit, including the grammar format can be found at http://www.csie.ntu.edu.tw/%7Eb6506053/doc/htkbook.pdf
