  • Introducing Spoken Dialogue Systems into Intelligent Environments
    Tobias Heinroth / Wolfgang Minker
    Introducing Spoken Dialogue Systems into Intelligent Environments outlines the formalisms of a novel knowledge-driven framework for spoken dialogue management and presents the implementation of a model-based Adaptive Spoken Dialogue Manager(ASDM) called OwlSpeak. The authors have identified three stakeholders that potentially influence the behavior of the ASDM: the user, the SD...

  • Hierarchical Neural Network Structures for Phoneme Recognition
    Daniel Vasquez / Rainer Gruhn / Wolfgang Minker
    In this book, hierarchical structures based on neural networks are investigated for automatic speech recognition. These structures are mainly evaluated within the phoneme recognition task under the Hybrid Hidden Markov Model/Artificial Neural Network (HMM/ANN) paradigm. The baseline hierarchical scheme consists of two levels each which is based on a Multilayered Perceptron (MLP...

  • Proactive Spoken Dialogue Interaction in Multi-Party Environments
    Petra-Maria Strauß / Wolfgang Minker
    Proactive Spoken Dialogue Interaction in Multi-Party Environments describes spoken dialogue systems that act as independent dialogue partners in the conversation with and between users. The resulting novel characteristics such as proactiveness and multi-party capabilities pose new challenges on the dialogue management component of such a system and require the use and administr...

  • Towards Adaptive Spoken Dialog Systems
    Alexander Schmitt / Wolfgang Minker
    In Monitoring Adaptive Spoken Dialog Systems, authors Alexander Schmitt and Wolfgang Minker investigate statistical approaches that allow for recognition of negative dialog patterns in Spoken Dialog Systems (SDS). The presented stochastic methods allow a flexible, portable and accurate use. Beginning with the foundations of machine learning and pattern recognition, this monogr...

  • Novel Techniques for Dialectal Arabic Speech Recognition
    Mohamed Elmahdy / Rainer Gruhn / Wolfgang Minker
    Novel Techniques for Dialectal Arabic Speech describes approaches to improve automatic speech recognition for dialectal Arabic. Since speech resources for dialectal Arabic speech recognition are very sparse, the authors describe how existing Modern Standard Arabic (MSA) speech data can be applied to dialectal Arabic speech recognition, while assuming that MSA is always a second...

  • Self-Learning Speaker Identification
    Franz Gerl / Tobias Herbig / Wolfgang Minker
    Current speech recognition systems are based on speaker independent speech models and suffer from inter-speaker variations in speech signal characteristics. This work develops an integrated approach for speech and speaker recognition in order to gain space for self-learning opportunities of the system. This work introduces a reliable speaker identification which enables the spe...

  • Statistical Pronunciation Modeling for Non-Native Speech Processing
    Rainer E. Gruhn / Satoshi Nakamura / Wolfgang Minker
    In this work, the authors present a fully statistical approach to model non--native speakers’ pronunciation. Second-language speakers pronounce words in multiple different ways compared to the native speakers. Those deviations, may it be phoneme substitutions, deletions or insertions, can be modelled automatically with the new method presented here.The methods is based on a dis...

  • Handling Emotions in Human-Computer Dialogues
    Angela Pittermann / Johannes Pittermann / Wolfgang Minker
    In this book, a novel approach that combines speech-based emotion recognition with adaptive human-computer dialogue modeling is described. With the robust recognition of emotions from speech signals as their goal, the authors analyze the effectiveness of using a plain emotion recognizer, a speech-emotion recognizer combining speech and emotion recognition, and multiple speech-e...
