Abstract :
In this work a multi layer perceptron (MLP) and a counterpropagation (CP) network for transcription of Norwegian text is presented. Both paradigms are described and compared. The corpus consists of about 50,000 Norwegian words and their transcriptions, developed by the Norwegian Telecom Research Centre. The transcription scheme used is Sampa for Norwegian. The performance for each network has been tested on about 10,000 unknown Norwegian words.
