Abstract
This paper describes the research efforts of the "Hidden Speaking Mode" group participating in the 1996 summer workshop on speech recognition. The goal of this project is to model pronunciation variations that occur in conversational speech in general and, more specifically, to investigate the use of a hidden speaking mode to represent systematic variations that are correlated with the word sequence (e.g. predictable from syntactic structure). This paper describes the theoretical formulation of hidden mode modeling, as well as some results in error analysis, language modeling and pronunciation modeling. 1 Introduction what the aims of the group were what the team tried what was accomplished plus interpretation of any data that was produced Spontaneous, conversational speech tends to be much more variable than the careful read speech that much of speech recognition work has focused on in the past, and not surprisingly the recognition accuracy is much lower on spontaneous spee...
