TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: "A SENTENCE ANALYSIS METHOD FOR A JAPANESE BOOK READING MACHINE FOR THE BLIND"

The following proposal is for a Japanese sentence analysis method to be used in a Japanese book reading machine. This method is designed to allow for several candidates in case of ambiguous characters. Each sentence is analyzed to compose a data structure by defining the relationship between words and phrases. This structure ( named network structure ) involves all possible combinations of syntactically collect phrases. After network structure has been completed, heuristic rules are applied in order to determine the most probable way to arrange the phrases and thus organize the best sentence. . | A SENTENCE ANALYSIS METHOD FOR A JAPANESE BOOK READING MACHINE FOR THE BLIND Yutaka Ohyama Toshikazu Fukushima Tomoki Shutoh and Masamichi Shutoh c c Systems Research Laboratories NEC Corporation 1-1 Miyazaki 4-chome Miyamae-ku Kawasaki-city Kanagawa 213 Japan ABSTRACT The following proposal is for a Japanese sentence analysis method to be used in a Japanese book reading machine. This method is designed to allow for several candidates in case of ambiguous characters. Each sentence is analyzed to compose a data structure by defining the relationship between words and phrases. This structure named network structure involves all possible combinations of syntactically collect phrases. After network structure has been completed heuristic rules are applied in order to determine the most probable way to arrange the phrases and thus organize the best sentence. All information about each sentence----the pronunciation of each word with its accent and the structure of phrases ---- will be used during speech synthesis. Experiment results reveal of all characters were given their correct pronunciation. Using several recognized character candidates is more efficient than only using first ranked characters as the input for sentence analysis. Also this facility increases the efficiency of the book reading machine in that it enables the user to select other ways to organize sentences. 1. Introduction English text-to-speech conversion technology has substantially progressed through massive research . Allen 1973 1976 1986 Klatt 1982 1986 . A book reading machine for the blind is a typical use for text-to-speech technology in the welfare field Allen 1973 . According to the Kurzweil Reading Machine Update 1985 the Machine is in use by thousands of people in over 500 locations worldwide. In the case of Japanese however due to the complexities of the language Japanese text-to-speech conversion technology hasn t progressed as fast as that of English. Recently a Japanese .
