Speech utterance classification

2003 IEEE International Conference on Acoustics, Speech, and Signal Processing, 2003. Proceedings. (ICASSP '03)., 2003
The paper presents a series of experiments on speech utterance classification performed on the ATIS corpus. We compare the performance of n-gram classifiers with that of Naive Bayes and maximum entropy classifiers. The n-gram classifiers have the advantage that one can use a single pass system (concurrent speech recognition and classification) whereas ...

Analyzing intention in utterances

Artificial Intelligence, 1980
This paper describes a model of cooperative behavior and describes how such a model can be applied in a natural language understanding system. We assume that agents attempt to recognize the plans of other agents and, then, use this plan when deciding what response to make. In particular, we show that, given a setting in which purposeful dialogues occur,

A Gricean preamble concludes that though utterances have unintended meanings, those cannot be considered apart from their intended meanings. Intention distinguishes artworks from natural phenomena. To allocate an artwork to a genre, to accept its normal authorial boundaries and that its content is not random but chosen, is to concede intention's ...

Utterances

2019
This chapter examines utterances. The unit that Greek grammarians called a logos, and Latin grammarians an oratio, was the largest in a hierarchy. Oratio is here translated by English ‘utterance’. Utterances were literally sounds uttered and as such, they had a physical reality.

Intentions in Utterance Interpretation

2015
Which is the role of intentions in utterance interpretation? I sketch an argument to the effect that the role of intentions is indirect; the interpreter’s assignment of meaning rather depends on considerations of what meaning is most reasonably assigned and her interest.

From Morpheme to Utterance

Language, 1946
This paper presents a formalized procedure for describing utterances directly in terms of sequences of morphemes rather than of single morphemes. It thus covers an important part of what is usually included under syntax. When applied in a particular language, the procedure yields a compact statement of what sequences of morphemes occur in the language,

Performative Utterances

1979
Abstract Austin attacks the view that language is referential, based on the simplistic division of utterances into the ‘descriptive’ and ‘evaluative’, using his notion of performative utterances. Such utterances, in the appropriate circumstances, are neither descriptive nor evaluative, but count as actions, i.e., create the situation ...
