본 논문은 일본어 음성인식기 신규 개발을 위해 초기에 부족한 일본어 음성데이터를 보완하는 방법이다. 일본어 발음과 한국어 발음이 유사한 특성을 근거로 한국어 음성 데이터를 이용한 일본어 음향모델 성능개선 방법에 대하여 기술하였다. 이종언어 간 음성 데이터를 섞어서 훈련하는 방법인 Cross-Language Transfer, Cross-Language Adaptation, Data Pooling Approach등 방법을 설명하고, 각 방법들의 시뮬레이션을 통해 현재 보유하고 있는 일본어 음성데이터 양에 적절한 방법을 선정하였다. 기존의 방법들은 훈련용 음성데이터가 크게 부족한 환경에서의 효과는 검증되었으나, 목적 언어의 데이터가 어느 정도 확보된 상태에서는 성능 개선 효과가 미비하였다. 그러나 Data Pooling Approach의 훈련과정 중 Tyied-List를 목적 언어로만으로 구성 하였을 때, ERR(Error Reduction Rate)이 12.8 %로 성능이 향상됨을 확인하였다.

With the advent of robust deep learning method, Neural machine translation has recently become a dominant paradigm and achieved adequate results in translation between popular languages such as English, German, and Spanish. However, its results in under-resourced languages Korean and Vietnamese are still limited. This paper reports an attempt at constructing a bidirectional Korean-Vietnamese Neural machine translation system with the supporting of Korean analysis tool - UTagger, which includes morphological analyzing, POS tagging, and WSD. Experiment results demonstrate that UTagger can significantly improve translation quality of Korean-Vietnamese NMT system in both translation direction. Particularly, it improves approximately 15 BLEU scores for the translation from Korean to Vietnamese direction and 3.12 BLEU scores for the reverse direction.

In this study, we propose a new system for constructing parallel corpora for sign languages, which are generally under-resourced in comparison to spoken languages. In order to achieve scalability and accessibility regarding data collection and corpus construction, our system utilizes deep learning-based techniques and predicts depth information to perform pose estimation on hand information obtainable from video recordings by a single RGB camera. These estimated poses are then transcribed into expressions in SignWriting. We evaluate the accuracy of hand tracking and hand pose estimation modules of our system quantitatively, using the American Sign Language Image Dataset and the American Sign Language Lexicon Video Dataset. The evaluation results show that our transcription system has a high potential to be successfully employed in constructing a sizable sign language corpus using various types of video resources.
