Original Abstract

This articles describes a comparison between manual and semi-automatic approachesto building a multilingual phoneme set. The two approacheswere compared in cases of 1) a multilingual system withabundant data for all the languages, 2) multilingual systems excludingtarget language 3) multilingual systems with small amount ofdata for target languages. The work shows that careful choice ofmerging methods can help improve recognition of languages with noor little training data and reasonably reduce multilingual phonemeset without losing a lot of accuracy.
