| UIT Seminar: Challenges in Speech Recognition |

| |
| Speech recognition has matured to the point where it |
| is now being widely applied in a range of applications |
| including desktop dictation, cell phone name dialing, |
| agent technology, automated operator services, |
| telematics, call center automation and help desks. |
| |
| Although the technology is often good enough for many |
| of these applications, there remain key challenges in |
| virtually every aspect of speech recognition that |
| prevent the technology from being used ubiquitously in |
| any environment, for any speaker, and for an even |
| broader range of applications. This talk will analyze |
| the ‘Speech Circle’ that enables a person to maintain |
| a dialog with a machine using speech recognition, |
| spoken language understanding, dialog management and |
| spoken language generation, and finally text-to-speech |
| synthesis, and show where significant progress has |
| been made, and where there remain critical problems |
| that need to be addressed and solved. |
| |
| The talk will include several audio and video examples |
| of speech recognition and speech understanding systems |
| that have been studied in the laboratory to illustrate |
| the challenges that remain to be solved before speech |
| recognition is considered a solved problem. |
