This paper describes the conversion of a Hidden Markov Model into a sequential transducer that closely approximates the behavior of the stochastic model. This transformation is es...
We show that for every deterministic bottom-up tree transducer, a unique equivalent transducer can be constructed which is minimal. The construction is based on a sequence of norma...
Weighted finite-state transducers have been used successfully in a variety of natural language processing applications, including speech recognition, speech synthesis, and machine ...
