This method is especially designed for mandarin speaker dependent small size word set recognition. It has less complexity, less resource consumption but higher ARR (accurate recognition rate) compared with traditional HMM or NN approach. A large scale test on the task of 11 mandarin digits recognition shows that the WER(word error rate) can reach 3 86%. This method is suitable for being embedded in PDA (personal digital assistant), mobile phone and so on to perform voice controlling like digits dialing, name dialing, calculating, voice commanding, etc.展开更多

Taboo is a relatively sensitive topic and it has distinctive national features and profound cultural connotations. The comparative study of English and Chinese taboos is an important subject in intercultural communication, which is easy to be overlooked.The short knowledge of taboo is a great barrier in intercultural communication, therefore, making a comparative study of linguistic taboos becomes imperative.展开更多
