Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Existing methods to predict schwa deletion in Hindi are based on prosodic or phonetic analysis. |
| Approach: | They propose to use Hindi grapheme-to-phoneme (G2P) conversion to predict whether a schwa represented in the orthography is pronounced or unpronounced (deleted). |
| Outcome: | The proposed model outperforms existing models on a newly-compiled pronunciation lexicon extracted from various online dictionaries. |
