Abstract
An effort is underway at AT&T Bell Laboratories and Telefónica Investigación y Desarrollo to build a restricted domain spoken language translation system, which we call VEST (Voice English/Spanish Translator). The eventual goal is a voice output translator which is speaker-independent, and has a vocabulary of several thousand words covering a specific application. This paper describes the first step of our research, a system which recognizes two speakers in each of Spanish and English and is limited to some four hundred words. The key new idea is that the speech recognition and the language analysis are tightly coupled by using the same language model, an augmented phrase-structure grammar, for both.
