Early syllabic segmentation of fluent speech by infants acquiring French. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Word form segmentation abilities emerge during the first year of life, and it has been proposed that infants initially rely on two types of cues to extract words from fluent speech: Transitional Probabilities (TPs) and rhythmic units.

Systran's Chinese word segmentation [PDF]
Proceedings of the second SIGHAN workshop on Chinese language processing -, 2003 SYSTRAN's Chinese word segmentation is one important component of its Chinese-English machine translation system. The Chinese word segmentation module uses a rule-based approach, based on a large dictionary and fine-grained linguistic rules. It works on general-purpose texts from different Chinese-speaking regions, with comparable performance.

Experience with a second language affects the use of fundamental frequency in speech segmentation. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 This study investigates whether listeners' experience with a second language learned later in life affects their use of fundamental frequency (F0) as a cue to word boundaries in the segmentation of an artificial language (AL), particularly when the cues ...

Annals of GIS, 2023 Unlike alphabet-based languages such as English, the Chinese language has no specifying word boundaries. Segmentation, particularly for the Chinese language, is a fundamental step towards Chinese text processing, information retrieval, and knowledge ...

Segmentation of Written Words in French
Language and Speech, 2012 Syllabification of spoken words has been largely used to define syllabic properties of written words, such as the number of syllables or syllabic boundaries. By contrast, some authors proposed that the functional structure of written words stems from visuo-orthographic features rather than from the transposition of phonological structure into the ...

Adaptive Chinese word segmentation [PDF]
Proceedings of the 42nd Annual Meeting on Association for Computational Linguistics - ACL '04, 2004 This paper presents a Chinese word segmentation system which can adapt to different domains and standards. We first present a statistical framework where domain-specific words are identified in a unified approach to word segmentation based on linear models. We explore several features and describe how to create training data by sampling.

Unsupervised segmentation of greenhouse plant images based on modified Latent Dirichlet Allocation [PDF]
PeerJ, 2018 Agricultural greenhouse plant images with complicated scenes are difficult to precisely manually label. The appearance of leaf disease spots and mosses increases the difficulty in plant segmentation.

Neural Word Segmentation with Rich Pretraining
, 2017 Neural word segmentation research has benefited from large-scale raw texts by leveraging them for pretraining character and word embeddings. On the other hand, statistical segmentation research has exploited richer sources of external information, such ...

From segmentation bootstrapping to transcription-to-word conversion [PDF]
, 2013 The mapping of a raw phonetic transcription to an orthographic word sequence is carried out in three steps: First, a syllable segmentation of the transcription is bootstrapped, based on unsupervised subtractive learning.
