A Multi-Agent Computational Linguistic Approach to Speech Recognition

2003-08-09, Walsh, Michael, Kelly, Robert, O'Hare, G. M. P. (Greg M. P.), Carson-Berndsen, Julie, Abu-Amer, Tarek

This paper illustrates how a multi-agent system implements and governs a computational linguistic model of phonology for syllable recognition. We describe how the Time Map model can be recast as a multi-agent architecture and discuss how constraint relaxation, output extrapolation, parse-tree pruning, clever task allocation, and distributed processing are all achieved in this new architcture.
