This speech must be detected and deleted in order to correctly identify the intended meaning. The broad class of disfluencies encompasses a number of phenomena, including word fragments, interjections, filled pauses, restarts, and repairs. We are analyzing the repairs in a large subset (over ten thousand sentences) of spontaneous speech data collected for the DARPA Spoken Language Program3 We have categorized these disfluencies as to type and frequency, and are investigating methods for their automatic detection and correction. Here we report promising results on detection and correction of repairs by combining pattern matching, syntactic and semantic analysis, and acoustics.

Hindle (1983) attempts to delimit and correct repairs in spontaneous human-human dialog, based on transcripts containing an \"edit signal,\" or external and reliable marker at the \"expunction point,\" or point of interruption. Carbonell and Hayes (1983) briefly describe recovery strategies for broken-off and restarted utterances in textual input. Ward (1991) addresses repairs in spontaneous speech, but does not attempt to identify or correct them. Our approach is most similar to that of Hindle. It differs, however, in that we make no assumption about the existence of an explicit edit signal. As a reliable edit signal has yet to be found, we take it as our problem to find the site of the repair automatically.", |

The corpus contains digitized waveforms and transcriptions of a large number of sessions in which subjects made air travel plans using a computer. In the majority of sessions, data were collected in a Wizard of Oz setting, in which subjects were led to believe they were talking to a computer, but in which a human actually interpreted and responded to queries. In a small portion of the sessions, data were collected using SRI's Spoken Language System (Shriberg et al., 1992b) , in which no human intervention was involved. Relevant to the current paper is the fact that although the speech was spontaneous, it was somewhat planned (subjects pressed a button to begin speaking to the system) and the transcribers who produced lexical transcriptions of the sessions were instructed to mark words they inferred were verbally deleted by the speaker with special symbols.

Numbers in parentheses indicate the number of occurrences, and probabilities represent the likelihood that the phrase was actually a repair and not a false positive.

Despite these problems of overlap, pattern matching is useful in reducing the set of candidate sentences to be processed for repairs. Rather than applying detailed and possibly time-intensive analysis techniques to 10,000 sentences, we can increase efficiency by limiting ourselves to the 500 sentences selected by the pattern matcher, which has (at least on one measure) a 75% recall rate.

Despite the small data set, some suggestive trends emerge. For example, for cases in which there was a pause (200 msec or greater) on only one side of the inserted word, the pause was never after the insertion (X) for the repairs, and rarely before the X in the false positives. A second distinguishing characteristic was the peak F0 value of X. For repairs, the inserted word was nearly always higher in F0 than the preceding M1; for false positives, this increase in F0 was rarely observed.

Hirshberg and Litman (1987) have shown that cue words that function differently can be distinguished perceptually by listeners on the basis of prosody. Thus, we sought to determine whether acoustic analysis could help in deciding, when such words were present, whether or not they marked the interruption point of a repair.", |

Table 7 shows the percentage of repairs versus false positives characterized by a clear rise or fall in F0 (greater than 15 Hz), lexical stress (determined perceptually), and continuity of the speech immediately preceding and following the editing expression (\"continuous\" means there was no silent pause on either side of the cue word). As can be seen, at least for this limited data set, cue words marking repairs were quite distinguishable from those same words found in fluent strings on the basis of simple prosodic features.", |

As shown earlier, fragments are exceedingly common; they occurred in 366 of our 607 repairs. Fragments pose difficulty for state-of-the-art recognition systems because most recognizers are constrained to produce strings of actual words, rather than allowing partial words as output. Because so many repairs involve fragments, if fragments are not represented in the recognizer output, then information relevant to the processing of repairs is lost.", |

Either the fragment was misrecognized as a complete word, or it caused a recognition error on a neighboring word. Therefore if recognizers were able to flag potential word fragments, this information could aid subsequent processing by indicating the higher likelihood that words in the region might require deletion. Fragments can also be useful in the detection of repairs requiring deletion of more than just the fragment. In approximately 40% of the sentences containing fragments in our data, the fragment occurred at the right edge of a longer repair. In a portion of 62 these cases, for example, \"leaving at <seven> <fif-> eight thirty,\" the presence of the fragment is an especially important cue because there is nothing (e.g., no matched words) to cause the pattern matcher to hypothesize the presence of a repair.", |

In contrast to earlier approaches, we have made it our goal to detect and correct repairs automatically, without assuming an explicit edit signal. Without such an edit signal, however, repairs are easily confused both with false positives and with other repairs. Preliminary results show that pattern matching is effective at detecting repairs without excessive overgeneration. Our syntactic/semantic approaches are quite accurate at detecting repairs and correcting them. Acoustics is a third source of information that can be tapped to provide evidence about the existence of a repair.", |
