Applications for automatic transliteration between English and Romanian
Journal Title: Revista Romana de Interactiune Om-Calculator - Year 2012, Vol 5, Issue 3
Abstract
Transliteration has been previously introduced for translating proper names between languages, when the two languages are incompatible at the phonetic level and they use very different alphabets. We propose an data-driven method for transliteration from English to Romanian and we present a series of applications based on this task, such as text-to-speech synthesis (on multilingual text) and what we call “perception based search”.
