We present exemplar-inspired low-resource spoken keyword search strategies for acoustic modeling, keyword verification, and system combination. This state-of-the-art system was developed by the SINGA team in the context of the 2015 NIST Open Keyword Search Evaluation (OpenKWS15) using conversational Swahili provided by the IARPA Babel program. In this work, we elaborate on the following: (1) exploiting...
We propose strategies for a state-of-the-art keyword search (KWS) system developed by the SINGA team in the context of the 2014 NIST Open Keyword Search Evaluation (OpenKWS14) using conversational Tamil provided by the IARPA Babel program. To tackle low-resource challenges and the rich morphological nature of Tamil, we present highlights of our current KWS system, including: (1) Submodular optimization...
Many keyword search (KWS) systems make “hit/false alarm (FA)” decisions based on the lattice-based posterior probability, which is incomparable across keywords. Therefore, score normalization is essential for a KWS system. In this paper, we investigate the integration of two novel features, ranking-score and relative-to-max, into a discriminative score normalization method. These features are extracted...
