Northeast Artificial Intelligence Consortium Annual Report 1987. Volume 6. Artificial Intelligence Applications to Speech Recognition

Abstract

The Northeast Artificial Intelligence Consortium (NAIC) conducted pertinent research in artificial intelligence and performed activities ancillary to this research. This report describes progress that has been made in the third year of the existence of the NAIC on the technical research tasks undertaken at the member universities. The topics covered in general are: versatile expert system for equipment maintenance, distributed AI for communications system control, automatic photo interpretation, time-oriented problem solving, speech understanding systems, knowledge base maintenance, hardware architectures for very large systems, knowledge-based reasoning and planning, and a knowledge acquisition, assistance, and explanation system. The specific topic for this volume is the design and implementation of a knowledge-based system to read speech spectro grams. The primary goal the RIT NAIC project is the development of techniques that can be applied to most difficult type of speech understanding system: the speaker independent, continuous speech, large vocabulary system. Keywords: Signal processing, Phoneme classification, Knowledge-based system phonetics, Parsers.
