Abstract

This article is about an automatic generation of pronunciation dictionaries, which are based on diarization approach.

Annotation

This paper presents the results of eight speech recognizers with automatically generated pronunciation dictionaries. Diarization approach, typically used in speaker recognition, could be modified for purpose of automatic generation of dictionaries, targeting the low resource languages where acquisition of hand-crafted pronunciation dictionary is time- and cost-consuming or impossi- ble. Experiments on GlobalPhone database show that diarization approach is suitable alternative for grapheme-based method.
