Abstract

An advanced model that includes new processes is provided for use as a component of an effective disfluency identifier. The disfluency identifier tags edited words in transcribed speech. A speech recognition unit in combination with a part-of-speech tagger, a disfluency identifier, and a parser form a natural language system that helps machines properly interpret spoken utterances.
