| Abstract | We present extensions to the work of backoff hierarchical class n-gram language modeling of Zitouni et al. (2003) by studying the efficacy of exploring the use of parts of speech (POS) information in hierarchical word clustering. We propose two approaches. One is to use POS n-gram contextual distributions of a target word for clustering. The other is to generate a class tree for each group of words sharing the same POS. The resulting class tree and a set of class trees, from the two approaches, respectively, are then employed in the hierarchical cluster language modeling. We evaluate the two approaches on SRI Arabic conversational telephone speech recognition system and show that the approach of building a set of POS-specific class trees achieves a 3% relative improvement on perplexity compared to the model of Zitouni et al. and a 8% relative improvement on perplexity over the baseline standard word n-grams. When used for N-best rescoring, our approach also outperforms the model of Zitouni et al. and the baseline and achieves significant word error rate (WER) reductions |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
