A Speech Translation System Applied to a Real-World Task/Domain and Its Evaluation Using Real-World Speech Data
Summary :
This paper describes an application of a speech translation system to another task/domain in the real-world by using developmental data collected from real-world interactions. The total cost for this task-alteration was calculated to be 9 Person-Month. The newly applied system was also evaluated by using speech data collected from real-world interactions. For real-world speech having a machine-friendly speaking style, the newly applied system could recognize typical sentences with a word accuracy of 90% or better. We also found that, concerning the overall speech translation performance, the system could translate about 80% of the input Japanese speech into acceptable English sentences.
