Abstract
This paper explores the possibility of using automatic speech recognition as a front end to a computer for Chinese character processing. A speech recognition experiment has been performed with the complete inventory of second-tone syllables of Standard Chinese. Two recordings of this inventory which were made 48 hours after one another were used as test and reference sets. It is shown that the distribution of intrasyllable distances and the distribution of intersyllable distances overlap considerably for the full inventory of 260 second-tone syllables. The recognition rate was determined as a function of the syllabary size and is 47.3% for the complete syllable inventory.
