PHONETIC DISTANCE BASED ACCENT CLASSIFIER TO IDENTIFY PRONUNCIATION VARIANTS AND OOV WORDS

, 2015
The state-of-the-art Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR) systems lack the ability to identify spoken words if they have non-standard pronunciations. In this paper, we present a new classification algorithm to identify pronunciation variants.
